These make all the difference
I purchased these as part of a home studio build. I had KRK Rokit monitors which despite being very good at re-producing sound had background noise and the bass levels were subdued. I read many reviews about various methods to limit the amount of vibration in speakers which in turn change the overall sound of your mix. By far the most positive was the Auralex Mopads. However due to budget constraints (I was spending allot on the keys and PC for the studio) I purchase a cheaper brand of mopads. They made almost no difference and in fact allowed my monitors to slowly move toward the edge of the shelf and almost fall off. It became clear that to get quality even in something as small as this, you have to buy a good brand. I received the mopads quickly from Thomann (always very good on shipping) and they made an immediate difference. They come in two bags (one for each set) and as well as the main pieces which the monitors sit on, you have various wedges which can be added to change the angle in 5 different ways so that the monitors are pitched towards your ears at the right height. The quality of the foam is fantastic, with my monitors staying in place. But the best thing of all is the sound. Bass is tighter, high end is crisper. I heartily recommend these. However, one negative is that if you clean your monitors with a yellow cleaning cloth, the foam pulls bits off them and is hard to clean afterwards.

Great for studio monitors
I'm using a set of these Auralex Acoustics MoPADs underneath a pair of Yamaha HS 7 studio monitor speakers, and these products work very well together! Improved bass response and reduced vibration through to the stand. You can place the foam wedges in various configurations to achieve the best angle for the speakers. Recommended!

Simpel, cheap and amazing!
Does what it needs to do for a fraction of the price of other solutions!
I use it between my monitors and my monitor stands.
The result is just amazing!

Decided for a different solution
I wanted to use them on the table instead of stands, to incline Neumann KM120s but figured out proper isolated stands would do the job better. I think it is a good solution in addition to solid stands, if you don´t mind the foam look. Definitely too big for the small Neumanns though, better for larger speakers.

Everything you need nothing you don't
It Does exactly what it's supposed to do. I used this for my monitors which are placed on stands. The way the product is shaped allows you to choose whether you want the monitors to face a little downward or not which gives you a little more control over the position of the monitors.
Overall a great product 10/10 would recommend.

the colour of the pad is slightly different in dark grey, medium grey and light grey... QC can do better and the box are damage...
But It works really good and the Auralex tag looks cool!!!

It is definitely helping with bass response
I have used Aureoles Acoustics MoPAD with Yamaha MSP5 and Yamaha HS7 and I could hear definitely better response in low frequencies. I'd recommend using it even in not well treated room as it will improve the lows.

Better sound, Better angle, Better Support!

My small 4 inch monitors sounds so much better with these and gets rid of weird vibrations and sounds from sound travelling through the desk.
Doesn't look "cool" enough for my tastes though...but works as it should

Nice pads
I've been using them since I bought my monitors so I can't tell the sound improvement. But it does it job well, I like the design of it which allows me to tilt my monitors at 2 different angles.
