Markham, Ontario-based IsoAcoustics has capped its strongest year yet for its OEM division, announcing on August 5, 2026 that its IsoAcoustics OEM partner program has now completed roughly 155 projects with more than 70 brand partners worldwide. The update, which doubles as an early look at the forthcoming GAIA-TITAN Neo consumer launch, confirms new or expanded collaborations with JBL, Raidho, Marten, EMM Labs, LUMIN and several other high-end manufacturers that quietly build IsoAcoustics decoupling technology into their flagship products.

IsoAcoustics OEM Division Posts Its Strongest Year Yet

While most audiophiles know IsoAcoustics for the GAIA feet sold under its own name, the company has spent more than a decade engineering custom isolation hardware for other brands behind the scenes. Per the update, the IsoAcoustics OEM division has completed approximately 155 projects to date — a 13 percent increase year over year — spanning more than 70 partner brands, up 28 percent from the prior year, with more than a dozen additional collaborations currently in development. Every project starts from the same patented isolation principle used in IsoAcoustics’ consumer GAIA line, then gets reshaped mechanically and aesthetically to match a partner’s cabinet, chassis or turntable plinth.

JBL, Raidho and Marten Headline New IsoAcoustics OEM Partnerships

The highest-profile addition is JBL. To mark JBL’s 80th anniversary, the two companies developed JBL | IsoAcoustics isolation feet — a semi-recessed adaptation of the GAIA-TITAN Neo — for the new Summit Everest and Summit K2 loudspeakers unveiled at High End Vienna 2026; JBL credits the feet with tighter bass performance, a more expansive soundstage, and imaging defined by greater clarity and spatial precision. The pairing extends a relationship that began with the Summit Makalu, Pumori and Ama models shown at High End Munich 2025.

Elsewhere, Raidho used HIGH END Vienna 2026 to roll out custom GAIA isolation across several ranges, including its new TD Signature speakers, which ship with IsoAcoustics feet included. Marten introduced its four-model Dexter Series with dedicated Marten Isolators built on GAIA Neo technology, extending a partnership that already spans its Coltrane flagship. EMM Labs is fitting purpose-built footers beneath its reference electronics, including the flagship PREi preamplifier, while LUMIN has integrated isolation into its X2 flagship streamer/DAC.

GAIA-TITAN Neo Brings IsoAcoustics OEM Engineering to Consumers

The update’s other headline is GAIA-TITAN Neo, the largest isolator in the GAIA Neo range, engineered for the industry’s heaviest cabinets. It first appeared in OEM form last year inside Marten’s Coltrane Supreme Extreme, and JBL is currently the only other brand building with it. IsoAcoustics says GAIA-TITAN Neo remains exclusive to select OEM partners for now, but a standalone consumer version is planned later in 2026, backed by a full global rollout — bringing this piece of IsoAcoustics OEM engineering directly to home-audio shoppers for the first time.

Pricing and availability

This is a corporate/division update rather than a single consumer product release, so there is no retail price list to publish. IsoAcoustics OEM partnerships are negotiated business-to-business, and each partner brand sets its own pricing for models built on the custom feet, such as the JBL Summit Everest and Summit K2. The one item to watch is GAIA-TITAN Neo itself, which IsoAcoustics confirms will move from OEM-exclusive to a standalone consumer product later in 2026; no price or ship date has been disclosed.

Key specifications

  • Approximately 155 OEM projects completed to date, up 13% year over year

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
