Atacama Atabites SMD-Z 7HD Inert Filler

£34.99

Elevate your audio experience with Atabites, a high-density inert filler designed to optimize the performance of your bookshelf speaker stands.

Traditional speaker stands can introduce unwanted vibrations that muddle your audio. Atabites acts as a sonic sponge, absorbing these vibrations and creating a more neutral platform for your speakers. The result? Clearer, more accurate sound with reduced coloration.

  • Atabites' dense composition effectively dampens vibrations, minimizing resonance within the speaker stands.

  • The size of Atabites micro-discs (2-4mm) ensures consistent sonic performance across the entire filler.

  • The innovative zinc coating protects Atabites from oxidation and degradation, ensuring long-lasting performance.

  • The zinc also adds to the Aesthetic, for batch identification quality control purposes you may find your atabites have a single-sided Satin Black finish (not visible when installed). Note:- This does not affect performance.

Fine-Tuning Your Sound: A Guide to Using Atabites Speaker Stand Filler

Unlock the hidden potential of your bookshelf speakers with Atabites, a high-density inert filler designed to optimize speaker stand performance.

Taking Control of Your Audio:

Speaker stands can introduce unwanted resonances that color your sound. Atabites acts as a sonic tuner, absorbing these vibrations and creating a more neutral platform for your speakers. This allows you to fine-tune the sound characteristics to your preferences.

Finding Your Perfect Sound:

  • Experimentation is Key: The ideal amount of Atabites depends on various factors like speaker type, cable configuration, room acoustics, and your desired sonic signature.

  • More Bass, Detail, and Soundstage: Generally, adding more Atabites (up to two-thirds full) can increase bass depth, enhance detail retrieval, and create a wider, more defined soundstage.

  • Striking a Balance: However, overfilling can lead to a dull, lifeless sound with softened mids. Experiment with different fill levels to find the sweet spot that delivers the sound you crave.

A Guide for Exploration:

Atabites are compatible with most speaker stands, not just Atacama/Apollo brands. Always check with the stand manufacturer for suitability before use. Here's a starting point for your experimentation:

  • Half to Two-Thirds Full: This is generally considered the optimal fill range for achieving a balanced sound with improved detail and bass response.

Embrace the Power of Customization:

With Atabites, you have the power to tailor your speaker stand performance and unlock the full sonic potential of your bookshelf speakers. Embrace the process of experimentation and discover the sound that perfectly suits your listening preferences.
