The Oyaide INS-CF is designed to address vibration control by using several materials to disperse the bad vibes, and includes 30 layers of material. These materials include a carbon material Oyaide has named "silver carbon" which is a hybrid structure of high-density glass fiber with an aluminum metallization coating. In spite of their small size and lightness in weight, the Oyaide INS-CF provides remarkable vibration dampening properties. Due to the different types of twilling methods, CFRP (Carbon fiber and epoxy resign) and silver carbon have different densities which is an important factor for vibration dispersing property. Lastly, the INS-CF is coated with highly-rigid epoxy resin for strength and durability.
As a tuning chip, INS-CF can be placed not only under the audio equipment or speakers as an isolator, but also on the top or back panel of your equipment. Due to its lightness in weight, it is easily attached to various points on your equipment such as: analog tonearm, power strips, and even wall surfaces of your audio room. (Please prepare double-sided tape for pasting.)
The INS-CF may be positioned with either its Carbon surface or silver carbon surface on top, depending on your listening preference. The carbon fiber surface tends to emphasize speed, while the Silver carbon surface may emphasize smoothness.
The Oyaide INS-CF may be used with heavyweight equipment, if placed on a flat, level surface. The edge is rounded for scratch-resistant and "Oyaide" logo is on the surface of the silver carbon to indicate authenticity.
