Skylan speaker stands are MASS-LOADING. Strong, yet light, they are engineered with MDF and Polymer Extrusion. These stands are designed for the serious audiophile at reasonable prices.
Construction consists of a rigid central pillar which is filled with kitty litter, wooden barbeque pellets or rice for mass loading. The base is 1" thick, and features die-cast threaded inserts for adjustable steel points or soft feet. The top plate is also rigid and non-resonant and incorporates high friction neoprene de-coupling pads to improve the speaker/stand interface. Skylan damping boards, the result of eighteen years of evolution, are popular with audiophiles as supports for turntables, amps and all vibration-sensitive gear.
For the money, Skylan stands and damping boards are the ultimate audio tweak.
"...I will tell you that this is a product that just embodies the concept of “pride of ownership.” Noel Nolan clearly cares a lot about his products, and they fairly exude quality from top to bottom."
From a review by Steve Folberg.

Q-Bricks are special feet that can be used in many approaches to vibration mitigation.
"The Q-bricks really tightened everything up, the bass was so much more taut and full, far more well defined and the Q-bricks changed the sound stage - much wider, taller and deeper. Micro-details (Louis' lips on the reed!) returned and a far more true, realistic shimmer and sparkle returned to the cymbal and high-hat. Louis' voice floated and emanated as if out of nowhere from much farther back in the 3D sound stage and had a more true timbre and inflection to it."

"Run almost single-handedly by Noel Nolan, Skylan is willing to build highly-developed custom products for its customers at a value-conscious price. Nolan and Chochos have worked together for a long time to design stands for each Omega loudspeaker. One evening, I spoke for over an hour with Noel, and he is just as knowledgeable and passionate about building speaker stands as Louis is about building speakers."
