Overview

IsoAcoustics OREA Graphite | Audio Component Isolation Foot

The IsoAcoustics OREA Graphite is the smallest and lightest-load model in the OREA Series, designed to isolate high-fidelity audio components weighing up to 4 lbs (1.8 kg) per isolator. Its compact, low-profile construction makes it particularly useful beneath lightweight DACs, phono stages, streamers, power supplies and other sensitive audio electronics where controlling mechanical vibration can help the equipment perform in a more stable environment. IsoAcoustics

Purpose-Built HiFi Component Isolation

Unlike the GAIA Series, which threads directly into loudspeakers, OREA isolators sit underneath the component. No threaded connection or permanent modification is required.

The OREA Series is designed specifically for home audio components including amplifiers, DACs, CD players, turntables and speakers. Each model uses a different internal tuning and load capacity so the isolation system can operate effectively within its intended weight range. IsoAcoustics

Patented IsoAcoustics Isolation Technology

OREA Graphite uses IsoAcoustics' patented isolation technology to reduce parasitic vibration transmitted between the audio component and its supporting shelf, rack or platform.

The upper flange is designed to create a suction-cup-like connection with the underside of the component, while the lower flange interfaces with the supporting surface. Mechanical energy is managed within the OREA's internal core rather than being rigidly transmitted through the footer. IsoAcoustics

IsoAcoustics designed this approach to improve perceived clarity and focus while helping create a more open, three-dimensional presentation.

Compact, Low-Profile Design

OREA Graphite measures just 1.6 inches (40mm) wide and 1.1 inches (27mm) high, allowing it to fit underneath compact components without substantially increasing their installed height.

The exterior is made from machined stainless steel, giving OREA a premium appearance appropriate for high-end audio systems. IsoAcoustics

Use Three or More to Match Component Weight

Each OREA Graphite supports 4 lbs (1.8 kg).

That provides these total capacities:

Number of Graphite Isolators Maximum Component Weight
3 12 lbs (5.4 kg)
4 16 lbs (7.2 kg)
5 20 lbs (9 kg)
6 24 lbs (10.8 kg)

IsoAcoustics recommends using at least three OREA isolators and staying within their combined rated capacity. IsoAcoustics

The layout can also accommodate uneven weight distribution. For example, a component with a heavy rear-mounted transformer could use two isolators toward the rear and one centered toward the front.

Works With or Without Factory Feet

For best performance, IsoAcoustics recommends positioning OREA directly against the chassis or base of the component whenever possible.

Existing factory feet can sometimes fit around the OREA, allowing direct chassis contact. Alternatively, OREA can be positioned beside the existing feet or underneath them when necessary. IsoAcoustics

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Do you price match?

Yes. We match any authorised dealer, including big-box retailers. If you find the same product at a lower price, contact us and we'll match it.

Do you offer free shipping?

Yes — free shipping on every order, with 2-day delivery available on most products. Easy returns and exchanges are included.

Where is your showroom?

We're at 6362 Alder Drive, Houston, Texas. The showroom lets you hear and compare reference-level systems in person before making any decisions. If you're considering a larger purchase or installation, it's well worth the visit.

Can I buy online without visiting the showroom?

Yes. The full product range is available through the online store with free nationwide shipping. For more complex system builds, speaking with one of our advisers first tends to lead to a better result.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. Special financing is available through the BrandSource Credit Card for qualifying purchases, allowing you to spread payments over time with no annual fee. Promotional rebate savings are also available periodically. See the financing page for full details.

Do you install systems as well as sell equipment?

Yes — installation is central to what we do. We design and install whole-home audio and video, home theaters, media rooms, outdoor audio, lighting and motorised shades, and full smart home automation.

Do you provide support after installation?

Yes. We provide ongoing service and support to ensure systems continue performing as intended — not just on installation day, but over the long term.
