Recoil Stabilizer™

Recoils Ben - Professional Studio Monitor Isolator/Stabilizer

Product Information

Quick Links

Features


The Recoil Stabilizer is a nearfield monitor platform that incorporates four different elements to create the whole. This includes:

  1. Retention padThin no-slip neoprene surface secures the nearfield monitor to the top surface for maximum signal transfer.
  2. Steel platformLaser cut ¼” (6mm) steel platform adds the necessary stabilizing mass to rigidly hold the nearfield monitor in place.
  3. Curved front panelCurved front panel eliminates standing waves and adds mass to the platform without increasing the footprint.
  4. Isolation foamHigh density open cell acoustic foam provides acoustic isolation to eliminate coupling between loudspeaker and shelf.

Recoil Stabilizers are available in a variety of sizes and weights to coincide with various monitors being produced today. Use the table below to determine the best Recoil for your monitor.

Recoil Options


Down Fire

The DF or down-fire model introduces a 5º degree angle to compensate for the added 2" (5cm) height that the Recoil Stabilizer will introduce when put in position. This is often a good choice when the near fields are used on a meter bridge or elevated shelf that cannot be adjusted.

Horizontal Fire

The HF is designed to fire sound straight on, in a horizontal plane. This makes the HF an ideal choice for adjustable monitor stands and custom mounting in soffits or shelves where the added 2" height is desired. This is also the preferred format for isolating sub woofers.

Up-Fire

Up-fire Recoils are designed for post production suites where monitors are often placed directly on a desk top. These introduce a more acute 10º angle that better directs the tweeter to the listening position. The up-fire angle can also be handy for smaller near field monitor when placed along side larger ones when sharing the same shelf.

"I first heard them at AES and I told Primacoustic that they were snake oil. I was dead wrong. Now I own 6 pairs, so much for my opinion... I can't record or mix without them."
Vance Powell
Engineer/Producer The White Stripes, Jars of Clay, Jimmy Buffett, Faith Hill, The Raconteurs, Jack White, Kings Of Leon, Buddy Guy
"I live in a near-field world mostly these days....and the Recoil Stabilizers provide dimension to the soundscape that 'enlarges' the workstation, recording, mixing environments. Tighter sound, clearer sonic images, better low end....environmental improvement!"
Glen Ballard
Engineer / Producer Michael Jackson, Alanis Morissette, Shakira, Katy Perry, Goo Goo Dolls, Annie Lennox, Dave Matthews, Van Halen
"My nearfield speakers sound better on the Recoil Stabilizers than they did without them. The bottom is solid, the vocals are clear and my speakers don't fall down. It's a great product."
Daniel Lanois
Engineer / Producer U2, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Emmylou Harris, Ron Sexsmith, Robbie Robertson
"When I first saw the Recoil Stabilizers, I wondered if they would actually do something. As soon as I tried them I noticed how they made certain rooms sound fuller in a pleasant way, without having to turn up the volume or add a sub. You won't realize how good these are until they are gone."
John Shanks
Engineer / Producer Van Halen, Bon Jovi, Keith Urban, Sheryl Crow, Jane’s Addiction, Anastacia
"Using the Recoil Stabilizers gave a noticeable improvement in sound, the bottom end is tighter and mixes sound more defined."
Dave Stewart
Musician / Engineer / Producer Eurythmics, Stevie Nicks, Tom Petty, Bono, Sinead O'Connor, Mick Jagger, Katy Perry, Bon Jovi
"These days, where the focus seems to be more on aesthetics rather than performance, it's nice to see a product that excels at both. Your Recoils are terrific! The bottom end on playback feels very solid. It's a pleasure mixing with them. Consider me a fan!"
George Seara
Mixer / Engineer Rihanna, Mos Def, Holly Cole, 50 Cent, Sting, Herbie Hancock, Finger Eleven
"Like a lot of guys out there I was using foam pads to isolate my near fields and really didn't expect to hear much of a difference… Was I wrong! The difference was apparent immediately. Everything changed (for the better). Bass became tighter and more defined. Mid-range and highs opened up. The sound stage became wider and deeper. The Recoils made what I thought was a great near field even better. The Recoils have become my monitor standard. Wherever my near fields go, my Recoils are right there underneath them. I don't monitor with out them. Thanks for a great product."
Bobby Fernandez
Film Score Engineer / Producer The Wolfman, Spiderman 3, Ghost Rider, Gran Torino
"Your mixes are only as good as your monitors and mix environment. When I began using the Primacoustic Recoil Stabilizer I immediately noticed improvements in the low end clarity of my near field monitors, to the point that I no longer needed to use a separate subwoofer. Incredibly, the detail of high frequencies and image localization were also improved."
Chuck Ainlay
Producer / Engineer Dire Straits, Vince Gill, George Strait, Lyle Lovett, Dixie Chicks
"I was immediately impressed with how discernible the difference was with the Recoil Stabilizers underneath my monitors. It cleared up a cloudiness in the bass and mid bass that I had been battling in my studio. I also noticed a clarity in the imaging I did not have before. This is an affordable and very effective problem solving product. I love these things!"
Ross Hogarth
Engineer / Producer Ziggy Marley, Melissa Etheridge, Keb' Mo', Jewel, Rooney, John Mellencamp, Jonas Brothers, John Fogerty
