At Shida, we specialise in blending beautiful handmade furniture with high-tech isolation.

Our S55 Pucks are water jet cut from an made open cell elastomer, specifically designed to mitigate vibration-induced microphony, a phenomenon where certain components in electronic devices convert mechanical vibrations into unwanted electrical signals. This results in  noise and distortion throughout the signal chain.

The European manufacturer is world renowned for its work in recording studios and concert halls, as well as many heavy industrial applications.

​

The S55 Pucks effectively absorb and dissipate energy, minimising the impact of vibration and isolating sensitive components from mechanical disturbances.

​

By isolating equipment from such vibrations, there is a significantly positive impact on the sound quality of turntables, CD players and amplifiers, allowing the components to deliver the signal as intended.

​

The highly elastic elastomer is engineered to deform to very specific peramiters under load and regain its original shape once the load is removed, ensuring a long lifespan even after years of use.

​

The exceptional performance of our elastomer stems from its precise load window. For optimal effectiveness, the elastomer requires a very narrow load window; too much or too little weight can diminish its effectiveness.

​

Our system simplifies the setup process and offers flexibility for component changes, as outlined in the table provided in the instruction manual.

​

One advantage of our base matrix is that the pucks can be strategically placed to accommodate off-center loads. For example, the transformers on valve amplifiers tend to be heavier at the rear, so adding pucks to the back of the matrix ensures that the load is evenly supported.
