IsoAcoustics Aperta200 Isolation Stands with Tilt Adjustment

The Larger Aperta for Speakers up to 75 Pounds, with Marked Tilt

The IsoAcoustics Aperta200 is sold as a pair, in black or silver, and each speaker takes one stand. It carries a bookshelf speaker or studio monitor of up to 75 pounds and tilts it up to 6.5 degrees, with graduated markings so both stands can be set to the same angle.

A heavy monitor on a console or shelf puts real energy into the surface, and the surface returns it to the cabinet. IsoAcoustics designs the Aperta200 so that energy is managed by isolators in the top and bottom of the frame. The speaker rides on the isolators rather than on the shelf.

Twice the Load of the Aperta, in a Stand Still Under Four Inches Tall

Fit, Load and Materials

Each Aperta200 carries up to 75 pounds. No minimum is published, but an isolator loaded far under its rating never reaches its working range, so a 15-pound speaker sits better on the Aperta. The IsoAcoustics online weight selector confirms the match for your speaker.

The stand is 7.8 inches wide, 10 inches deep and 3.5 inches tall, so it raises the speaker three and a half inches. The frame is solid aluminum, finished in black or silver, with IsoAcoustics isolators in the top and bottom sections. The speaker sits on the top frame; nothing is fastened to it.

The tilt adjusts up to 6.5 degrees up or down, with gradation marks to repeat the setting on the second stand. It is made for a console, shelf, credenza or floor stand. On a small top plate, the Aperta200 Support Plates give it a full surface.

What Reviewers Are Saying

Barry Rudolph tested the Aperta200 in his control room for Music Connection: “The Aperta 200s are winners and I highly recommend them for any project studio, stereo or home theatre”.

Who Is the Aperta200 Best For?

• You own bookshelf speakers or monitors of 35 to 75 pounds each — one Aperta200 per speaker carries them inside the working range
• Your speakers sit on a console bridge or a low shelf — the tilt aims the tweeter at your ears, and the marks let you match both sides
• You want the speaker off the surface without bolting anything — it sits on the top frame and lifts off in seconds
• You have a floor stand with a small top plate — the Aperta200 Support Plates extend the surface so the stand sits flat
• Your speakers weigh less than 35 pounds each — the Aperta, rated 35 pounds a stand, keeps a lighter speaker inside its working range

How Do You Set Them Up?

Set each stand where the speaker will go, logo facing forward. Place the speaker centered on the top frame. Adjust the tilt until the tweeter points at your listening position and read the mark, then set the second stand to the same mark. Sit down and listen.

Pairs Well With

What most Aperta200 owners shop next.

• Speaker stands — get the tweeters to ear height before you isolate
• Floor and carpet protection discs — a firm footing on carpet or a soft floor
• Speaker cables — the next link in the chain after the speakers are settled
• Speakers — the bookshelf and desktop models these are made to sit under

Frequently Asked Questions

How many do I need?

One stand per speaker. The Aperta200 is sold as a pair, so one order covers a stereo pair. A single center speaker or monitor needs one stand from the pair.

Which Aperta fits my speakers?

Go by the weight and footprint of one speaker: Aperta up to 35 pounds, Aperta200 up to 75, Aperta 300 up to 60 for wide cabinets. The IsoAcoustics online weight selector settles borderline cases.

How does the tilt adjustment work?

Each stand tilts up to 6.5 degrees upward or downward, and gradation marks show the setting. Set one stand by ear, then match the second to the same mark.

Will it sit on a floor stand?

Yes, if the top plate is at least the stand's 7.8 by 10 inch footprint. For a smaller top plate, the Aperta200 Support Plates give the stand a full-size surface.
