The JetPack Booster just solved a problem you might never have thought about.
If you have been DJing for a while, especially at undergrounds, warehouse parties, or random pop-up parties, then you know that the DJ decks (CDJs or Turntables) are almost never the perfect height. You’re either reaching up or stooping down, and you rarely get that “jusssssst right” setup. So JetPack thought of a relatively easy solution that actually solves for two problems!
Problem number 1 – Height Adjustment
Problem number 2 – Vibration dampening
At first glance, the JetPack Booster looks almost too simple. Made from dense, durable rubber, these stackable risers are built to elevate and stabilize everything from DJ controllers and mixers to turntables, speakers, and are great for both DJing and HiFi setups. Their rubber construction helps keep gear planted while also reducing vibrations that can travel through tables and stages.
For DJs, the Boosters offer a practical way to raise a controller or mixer to a more comfortable working height. Anyone who’s played a four-hour set behind a table that’s a few inches too low knows how quickly poor ergonomics can quickly lead to back and shoulder fatigue. Because the pucks are stackable, it’s easy to fine-tune the height of your setup while creating extra clearance for cables underneath.
They are surprisingly easy to use once you have some practice. Just set the desired puck height (1 or 2 pucks usually suffice), lift the turntable/CDJ/Mixer from the back, place the pucks, and then add the front pucks. You might need someone to help you lift up the gear, depending on the setup, but 90% of the time, you can probably do it solo.
They’re equally useful outside the DJ booth. HiFi enthusiasts can place them beneath turntables or bookshelf speakers to help isolate components from unwanted vibration. In a studio, they can also provide extra stability for desktop monitors and production gear on less-than-perfect surfaces.
I’ve used the Boosters for my kitchen vinyl setup with the Pioneer PLX-1000s pictured above and on my HiFi setup in the basement with my Music Hall Stealth Turntable, and I’ll probably add some to my JetPack Glide XL Bag as well for when I take out the Pioneer DJ OPUS Quad to more raw and underground types of spaces.

Like many of JetPack’s products, the appeal comes from thoughtful design rather than unnecessary complexity. The Boosters are compact enough to toss into your gear bag, durable enough to handle regular travel, and versatile enough to become one of those accessories you end up using far more often than expected. They work incredibly well for what they are, seamlessly stackable.
