What kind of improvements, you ask? The changes were both wide-ranging and dramatic, but especially dramatic in two categories – clarity and resolution. There was an instant and striking improvement in system clarity; the see-through ability that strips away the fog separating you from the music. Immediately I was struck by how much more information the sonic picture contained, and how much less contaminated and more precise was the presentation.

Resolution; the ability of the system to dig deeply into the music, uncovering subtle nuance, is another quality beautifully enhanced by Aurios MIB. Discover things before unheard, tasty tidbits deeply hidden in the recesses of music, obscured by a cloak you didn’t know existed, until it was lifted. Lifted it was, and to a sparkling degree in this system.

No other isolation product I’ve tried has offered such a significant upgrade

See what the press has to say…
1) “… The sonic improvement was such that I consider them a must-have accessory.” Robert Deutsch – Stereophile
2) “The improvement in sound can be quite staggering.” David Price – Hi-Fi World
3) “This may be the most cost effective improvement I’ve heard. Generally they make more of an improvement than changing electronics, and at a fraction of the price. I don’t look at them as how they compete in the accessories category, but what they do for the sound compared to (much more costly) electronic components.” Jim Smith – Avantgarde Acoustic
4) “Mechanical integrity and isolation affect the actual signal that finally arrives at our ears to an extent that is unbelievable, until you’ve heard the difference.” Srajan Ebaen – Soundstage
5) “Best Buy of the Year” Award from Stereo Times

ABOUT VISTEK

What sets us apart from other precision vibration control manufacturers? We’ve discovered a simple solution to vibration control that’s easy to use, easy to maintain, easily adaptable and versatile for virtually every type of precision manufacturing tool and process.

We don’t waste time on complex, expensive solutions. Our core technology is both elegant and efficient, because we follow the natural laws of physics. In a nutshell, our technology is mechanical, passive, compact and scaleable – making it conducive to a wide variety of industry applications.

Our technology, known as True Gravity is rooted in the White Vibration Filtering process – a phenomenon that results in the cancellation or suppression of a broad band of vibration frequencies to a constant vibration amplitude level. The True Gravity value goes beyond performance. In fact, it’s a better value than other systems in at least three ways:

1) Its’ durable metal design does not depend on elastomers that can deteriorate and contaminate a clean room.
2) As a mechanical device, it does not require pneumatics and electronic supporting hardware. It is a more reliable solution with no maintenance and less cost than piezo electric active systems.
3) Our products are easier to customize and integrate for OEM applications in wafer processing, metrology and microscopy tools. The result is built-in process improvements with less design problems.

TGE (parent company to Vistek Inc., Aurios Inc., Dynamic Assets Inc.) has developed breakthrough technology in the field of vibration and motion control. This technology yields tremendous benefits for industrial engineers designing and operating high-powered microscopes, metrology tools and precision manufacturing/process control machinery. Civil engineering structures such as buildings and bridges created to comply with the world's most stringent seismic and wind load standards also incorporate TGE devices. Recently TGE's innovative vibration isolation bearing concept, patented in 1997, has found unique expression in the enhancement of state-of-the-art audio/visual playback systems.

TGE, through its subsidiaries, designs and manufactures products for the following applications:

1) Seismic isolation of objects ranging from network server racks, to million pound vineyard tanks, to priceless works of art.
2) Tuned mass damping of wind sway affecting towers, buildings, and long span bridges.
3) Vibration control of precision manufacturing equipment via tuned mass dampers.
4) Micro vibration isolation and control for precision equipment including light microscopes, confocal microscopes, atomic force microscopes, scanning and transmission electron microscopes, chemical-mechanical polishing tools, photo-lithography tools, epitaxial reactors, nuclear magnetic resonance magnets, CNC lathes, lab balances, and metrology instruments of all sorts.
