Your neighbors living below will thank you.
My neighbors below me always complain about the noise my sound system makes even though I don’t turn it too loud. I would put my sub at 30% power and have my volume relatively low but they would come up and knock on my door claiming they “can’t even hear the TV.” As a result I would have my sub basically off and resorted to having headphones on if I wanted to listen to music.At some point I got sad that I couldn’t use my sound system to its potential and did some research on possible solutions and found out about insulation pads. I decided to buy one in hopes that it would solve my problem.I got the pad and put it under my sub. This is pretty mean in hindsight but I decided to conduct an “experiment.” I turned my sub to 50% power and put the volume pretty loud but not uncomfortably loud. I played some bass heavy low-fi trap music through the night until 2 AM. I put my hand on the floor and the wall behind the sub and felt no vibration! The next day I played music through the whole day while doing work still no complaints.I saw some reviews saying that the build quality is poor which is something to consider. For me personally it came in just fine with nothing falling apart. Also the bass sounds more sharp and I feel that the bass is more impactful perhaps because the bass isn’t just going into the ground.If you have issues with the neighbors below being annoyed I fully recommend this. It may also extract more performance from your sub.

Works for me
I'm using this riser foam as a stand for the Polk PSW 10 subwoofer. The riser arrived in perfect condition. It's lightweight, but sturdy, and withstands the weight of the subwoofer very well, which I have against the wall under my desk. If I ever want to reach into the back to change a control, I'm able to easily move the riser with the subwoofer on it, to angle it outward, without damaging it.The dimensions leave just enough room on the sides, and additional room front to back, so that I'm able to position the subwoofer according to my preference. I have a little room in the back, and more room in the front.As I understand it, the riser is supposed to absorb extra vibrations, and help sound from moving downward to someone living beneath me. So far, I've had no complaints about noise, and the sound is tight. So I would recommend this.

Isolates!
Works well with my 12" Klipsch powered sub. Isolates the bass and appears to keep it local. I was looking for something to help keep the bass in just my living room. So far this appears to do that. No help needed to enhance the bass so I can't speak to that. But isolating it seems to be working.

Good quality
Mine was too large for the bass so I cut it in half with a blade. Works great, now the neighbors don't mind my bass.

Works well but overpriced probably
You could just get some foam and do this yourself there's really nothing special about it imo but as everything else its perfect

Good value for result
I have 2 subwoofers for my home theater system a Denon 3500. One is an older down firing Klipsch and the other is a newer 10” Klipsch front firing.My down firing Klipsch was causing vibrations when placed in the corner on wooden floors. This pad completely cleared it up. Made the bass sound much less muddy.For the front firing sub it was a little less obvious if it made a good difference. When I added the pad the vibrations decreased in the surrounding floor. The sub vibrated and made a rattling sound. I turned down the sub volume and was able to get decent bass without rattle. It may just have been that track.I can feel the bass in my body instead of the floor and walls now.The material is not worth price but the affect the pad has is worth the value.

Surprisingly better than expected
Surprisingly impressed. I was going to purchase replacement rubber feet to do the same thing but at over $50. Much better alternative.PROSSound Dampening:I have a wood floor, with a ton of empty crawl space below it. My sub rattles my whole house, which is not what is intended. I want the bass without the rattles. This doesn't drop everything, but it dampens A LOT. I'm thoroughly impressed.Aesthetics:It looks alright. Black. Felt (or at least it looks like felt). If you have a black subwoofer it should blend in fine. It does attract animal hair as seen in my photos. But as subs aren't a typically a centerpiece, it's tucked outta the way and nobody has once looked at it.CONSThe one negative I've got (and I'm still giving 5 out of 5) is that the weight of my sub has caused it to warp over the years. As seen in my photos.If you have a sub, I highly recommend this.

Excellent value can't be beat for the price.
Sounds like a different subwoofer for the better.

Macht was es soll.
Musste meinen Canton Sub in der Ecke platzieren , mit dem PYLE Sockel ist der Bass viel besser und dröhnt nicht mehr.

Much tighter and punchier bass!
It’s not often I write reviews (if at all), but I just had to with this.The isolation pad has improved my listening experience so much. The bass no longer feels like it just hits the carpet and is trapped there. The only way I can explain it is that the bass now feels a lot more ‘open’ and one with the music but not ‘lost’ if that makes any sense?I was extremely sceptical that this pad would do anything at all and that I’d end just up sending it back for a refund (especially with this room being quite small), but I was SO wrong.I primarily listen to heavy music (August Burns Red to be exact as I type out this review) and the low end is wayyy more punchy and focused now. Gunfire and explosions on games like Call of Duty and Battlefield sound much better now too.Some may say this is placebo effect, but I’ve had these speakers (Edifier S360DB 2.1) for quite a while now, so I was immediately able to tell the difference. There was no need for a side by side test of with and without the isolation pad.If it wasn’t already clear, I am super happy with this purchase and I’m glad I made the decision to order one.
