“The First production run is sold out, They will have a large number available early August”

Interesting. What are the dimensions and load capacities? I've searched Stillpoints web site extensively for information on their isolation footers and there is virtually no data of any kind to be found. Not even the dimensions.

More to follow... ;)

Mine will be here soon.

They look to be better shaped, especially sitting on the base and borrowing from the 6

I have many more pics that need to be resized before I post them tomorrow.

So what would be the major technological benefit from the new series vs. the old? Kind of seems there's only so much you could improve upon that would be audible when it comes to a product like Stillpoints footers. I'd be interested to see if anyone could hear an audible difference between the previous models and the new when placed under an amplifier or preamplifier. :ok:

They heard a difference in Germany, where they debuted.

They should provide specifics. I am with Buck on this one,...would like to know more detail.

Would you please ask them for detail?

Ultra II - The Ultra II follows the legacy of the Ultra 6, incorporating the use of technology pockets on opposing sides of the isolator. Available in three configurations.

Version 1:
Ultra 2 configured with 1/4-20 threaded pad at the bottom and smooth pad at the top only. No Ultra Base
(This version recommended for attachment to ESS grid for supporting components in an ESS rack, or a component stand. )

Version 2:
Ultra 2 configured with 1/4-20 threaded pad at the bottom, smooth pad on top and comes with an Ultra Base for attachment to the bottom.
(This version would be used to support components placed on the floor or, on another support shelf or rack with a flat surface.)

Version 3:
Ultra 2 configured with 1/4-20 threaded pads at both top and bottom and an Ultra Base. (This could be affixed to a component via the top pad with an appropriately sized adapter for the component being used. This Ultra 2 version could also be ordered with a Hard Hat for the top. The Hard Hat will need to be ordered as an extra and priced individually as listed on the price sheet.)

NOTE: The Ultra 2 is not recommended for use under loudspeakers The preferred supports for loudspeakers are either the Ultra SS or, Ultra 5.

My hunch is it’s not major, but different depending how you define it [emoji851].

Perhaps it’s the number of or the use of different materials on the internal bearings. I “think” 10 are currently used, and are stainless - maybe less bearings and ceramic?

Unless Ivan has different pictures, I do like that the top hat is replaced with the rectangle trim much like the Ultra 6 and it’s more cylinder shaped looking better on the base.

I wonder if the price includes the base?
