"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
"Since adding Recoils, when I take the recording out of my room and listen to it somewhere else, it is more representative of what I am hearing when I record. Before, I used to rely on 'feeling the fundamental' of the kick and bass coupling with the desk. This necessitated cranking the volume. Now, the speakers are decoupled from the console and I am really enjoying the balance, especially the low end which holds up at lower volumes as well as when played loud. Consider me satisfied!"
Ed Cherney
Engineer / Producer The Rolling Stones, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy
"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
