Its patented velour-covered MDF surface and dense base layer support subs up to 300 lbs, improving bass clarity and extending low-frequency response while minimizing sound transmission to adjacent rooms. Ideal for audiophiles seeking cleaner, tighter bass and a refined listening environment. ## Description The Sub Dude-HT’s expanded size accommodates popular, larger-footprint home theater subwoofers. The design, based on an Auralex patent, features a functionally inert 3/4 inch, velour-covered, MDF platform supported by a 1 inch base layer of sturdy Auralex Platform that is an effective isolation boundary to decouple the subwoofer from the floor underneath. This combination of materials dramatically diminishes structural vibrations and resonances, resulting in reduced coloration, tighter bass and a perceived extension of the subwoofer’s low-frequency response. Review: Great solution - I have 3 large active subwoofer on second floor over 2 car garage. The construction is wood framing. Before installing these vibration mats the room walls would shake and even feed back into my turntable !! These units were recommend by Rythmic Subwoofer Co!! Great advice! The Rattling of the walls and turntable is completely gone. The entry from the active subs is Not coupled into the structure!! Great solution Review: Worth it - Bought 2 of these for both of my Definitive Technology DN12 subs. Perfect for my hardwood floors they work as described. Worth the purchase. ## Features - Diminishes structural vibrations for less resonance; Reduces sound transmission to neighboring spaces - Improves your sub’s clarity and extends its received low-frequency response - Decouples your subwoofer from the floor - Reduces coloration and muddy resonance ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00COVEJ1E | | Additional Features | Lightweight | | Antenna Location | home theater | | Audio Driver Size | 18 Inches | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Audio Output Mode | Surround | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,327 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #79 in Recording Studio Acoustical Treatments | | Brand | Auralex | | Built-In Media | SubDude-HT | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Gaming Console, Home Theater, Television | | Connectivity Protocol | Auxiliary | | Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary | | Control Method | Touch | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 267 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Metal, Plastic | | Frequency Response | 1000000 MHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00818105009473 | | Is Waterproof | FALSE | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 22"D x 18"W x 1.75"H | | Item Weight | 3.75 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Auralex | | Material | Metal, Plastic | | Model Name | SubDude-HT | | Model Number | SUBDUDE_HT | | Mounting Type | Floor Standing | | Number of Audio Channels | 5.1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Speaker Size | 4 Centimeters | | Speaker Type | Subwoofer | | Specific Uses For Product | Home Theatre | | Subwoofer Diameter | 18 Inches | | UPC | 818105009473 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Manufacturer Defect, replacement only | | Warranty Type | Limited | | Wireless Technology | No Wireless Communication Technology | ## Product Details - **Audio Output Mode:** Surround - **Brand:** Auralex - **Connectivity Technology:** Auxiliary - **Frequency Response:** 1000000 MHz - **Mounting Type:** Floor Standing ## Images ![Auralex SubDude HT Subwoofer Isolation Platform - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61dEh4mVmBL.jpg) ![Auralex SubDude HT Subwoofer Isolation Platform - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hSLFAZSaL.jpg) ![Auralex SubDude HT Subwoofer Isolation Platform - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71De46gazzL.jpg) ![Auralex SubDude HT Subwoofer Isolation Platform - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71oGPczLr1L.jpg) ![Auralex SubDude HT Subwoofer Isolation Platform - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21Px1F3yHiL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Moving to top floor apartment with Pioneer SW-8-K. Is this overkill or even needed for such a small sub? Better/cheaper alternatives for an 8"?** A: I don't think of this product as a way to prevent sound from moving through the building, but as a way of preventing unwanted room modes from 'muddying" the low frequencies. I have a number of these both the full size and the smaller version you are looking at and they do a tremendous job of adding clarity to the low frequencies, but I can still hear the bass downstairs in my basement. I would highly recommend the product, but I don't think it's going to prevent your neighbors from getting upset if you watch a Marvel film at a fairly loud level. Hope this helps. **Q: Is there really much of a difference between the Subdude and Ampdude? Minus looks of course.** A: I'm not sure what ampdude is doing, subdude's foam seems to be proprietary. Meaning that r and d developed for this product seem to do something with the sound waves. That being said this design seems to bring a noticeable difference when placed under the sub. **Q: Will this reduce the amount of bass that travels downstairs when my subwoofer is upstairs?** A: They should. If you have them on a wooden floor you can feel and hear the bass throughout the house. Resting your sub on it should reduced the boominess.I had the opposite problem. I had 2 Laradigm subs on my basement, resting in thin carpet on concrete. My bass was completely gone. The bass indidnhave was bloated and boomy. I added 2 of these and all of a sudden I could hear and feel my bass again. Best money I ever spent. I would also recommend the Auralex mopad for your center channel **Q: If my subwoofer is 18 inches deep and this platform is 15 - is 1 1/2 inches overhang on the front and back going to be an issue?** A: Overhang won't be an issue as long as the spikes or whatever supports are used to hold the sub up off the ground will sit on the ampdude. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great solution *by C***L on March 22, 2025* I have 3 large active subwoofer on second floor over 2 car garage.

Worth the purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After having excellent success with Auralex foam under monitor speakers *by D***E on February 6, 2015* I am using these under a pair of high quality full range speakers, each of which contain 3 12" woofers. For years I went with the approach of spikes to couple the speaker to the floor with mixed results. After having excellent success with Auralex foam under monitor speakers, I decided that maybe decoupling my large speakers would work well. Because of my speakers large size I decided to go with the full size sub dudes. Auralex rates them at 300 lbs. and my speakers weigh well over 100 lbs. each and stand over 5' tall and they are completely stable on the platforms. They have also been setup for several months and I see no evidence the foam is settling or compressing. As for their performance, they do an excellent job of isolating the floor and furniture from vibration. In addition low frequencies are rendered clearly with none of the "muddiness" that large woofers can often produce. I was so impressed with them I purchased an additional unit for my home theater subwoofer and 2 more sub dude II's for a smaller pair of full range speakers. ## Frequently Bought Together - Auralex SubDude HT - SVS SoundPath Subwoofer Isolation System, 4-Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/7850781-auralex-subdude-ht-subwoofer-isolation-platform](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/7850781-auralex-subdude-ht-subwoofer-isolation-platform) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
