"For the past
couple of years, I've been using other types of monitor isolation pads, and
thought I had the low end problem pretty much handled, until I tried the
Primacoustic Recoil Stabilizer. I was immediately blown away by the overall
clarity in the imaging and they removed every ounce of low-mid problem I was
having. Something the other pads obviously didn't do. These are the best
monitor isolation pads you'll find on the market today.
Second to none!"

"The Recoil Stabilizer will
help your speaker become sharper in its delivery of acoustic detail because
it actually improves the environment where your speaker physically resides.
It works with a very wide range of nearfield monitors. Thus, you won’t have
to have the gold in the ears to experience the difference between the Recoil
and no Recoil. This product really is a good buy and a solid investment in a
better monitoring setup."

Great product!
“We use it for NS-10 on a
big analog console. I am glad to say that the RX-7 improved the sound. A
bit
more tight bass ,solid and more open hi end feel.
I'm working on a mix with one of the biggest rocklegends in Sweden. Last
session. After the rx7 setup he asked me several times is it the big
speakers now...? hmmmm....
Thanx fore a great product".

“De Recoil Stabilizer is echt de finishing touch van je nearfield monitor
setup. Ik werk zelf op een zwevende houten vloer en dit resulteert al gauw
in het so called 'boom effect' in het laag, zonder de juiste acoustic
treatments. Met deze Recoils onder je monitors klinkt het laag veel strakker
en daardoor komt het mid/hoog enorm naar voren. De prijs vind ik het meer
dan waard!”

Using Adam A7's on spiked,
sand filled stands, it seemed like we had just acquired the next model up. I
chose to test them out on a sonically challenging song recorded at 88.2/24
and based initially around voice and acoustic, but with increasingly intense
rhythmic and textural instrumentation. It was quickly apparent that the
Recoil's opened up a new level of detail - transients were more detailed;
the stereo image was noticeably improved and it became easier to hone in and
fix the problems we had been having with the bass end. The effect wasn't
subtle: it was immediately noticed by the artists.
It might seem surprising, but my general impression of the improvement was
not unlike making the transition from RME Multiface to Fireface convertors.
To be fair, not quite as dramatic, but very much the same sense of removing
a veil to see more of the detail. A very worthwhile investment - and a great
service from Helios too! Hope this helps :-)
Cheers,

They do a great job of decoupling the speakers and give more accurate bass
and better imaging. It's not just a subtle difference, but an obvious
improvement."

What it does is so simple, and the improvement you hear is so
