Abstract

An acoustic isolator is placeable between a sound producing body and a resting surface. The acoustic isolator includes a foam member having a first surface for receiving the sound producing body and a second surface for engaging the resting surface. The foam member is composed of a supportive foam member capable of substantially preventing the transfer of sound induced vibrations between the sound producing body and the resting surface while sustaining an internal deflection of less than about thirty percent.
