Townshend Audio once again proved essential in achieving sonic excellence at the Bristol Hi-Fi Show 2025. Their innovative isolation technology was showcased in several rooms, reinforcing their reputation as a leader in vibration control and system optimisation.
One of the standout demonstrations featuring Townshend’s Seismic Isolation Podiums was the room hosted by Jez Ker of Ker Acoustics. As Britain’s youngest hi-fi prodigy, Jez Ker is a rising star in the audio world, bringing fresh energy and innovation to the industry, creating waves with his handmade speakers—equipped with ribbon tweeters for razor-sharp note delivery—paired flawlessly with Townshend’s Isolda Speaker Cables and the result? A breathtakingly pure and dynamic soundscape that left listeners in awe. To miss this room was, quite simply, a disservice to the future of high-end audio.
Townshend’s Podiums were also instrumental in the Chord Electronics room, where British brands collaborated harmoniously to create an unparalleled auditory experience.
By effectively eliminating footfall disturbances and micro-vibrations, the Seismic Podiums support the Kerr Acoustic speakers in performing at their peak, delivering crystal-clear sound with remarkable detail and depth.
The new ‘old’ kids on the block, Audio Ultrafide, made their presence known at the show. Veterans in the professional arena, these experts are now branching out to meet the growing demand for a pro-like punch with the finesse of hi-fi know-how.
We enjoyed seeing our collaboration come to life with ULTRAFIDE AUDIO with their new DIAS Power Amplifier placed on a Townshend Seismic Podium. The result was an impressive audio experience that seamlessly blended the powerful dynamics of professional-grade sound with the precise clarity that audiophiles demand. This showcased Ultrafide Audio as a brand to watch in the rapidly evolving world of high-fidelity audio.
Soundfawndations also brought their signature touch to the show, placing Townshend Seismic Podiums under the Kerr Acoustic Speakers while spinning an eclectic mix of rare vinyl. The combination created an unforgettable sound that highlighted the importance of vibration control for optimal performance.
The show was a powerful reminder of Townshend Audio’s dedication to enhancing the listening experience. Their presence in multiple rooms further emphasized vibration control’s critical role in high-end sound reproduction. Townshend continues to push the envelope in audio innovation, proving that their solutions are not just accessories but essential elements in any serious hi-fi system.
