Anybody have both Herbie's Cone/Spike Pucks and isoacoustics gaia's


My Spatial Audio X5's sit on pieces of granite which sit on top of carpeting with a concrete floor under all of it. Am very happy with the performance I'm getting now but was thinking of getting some isoacoustic gaia's for my speakers because of all the positive feedback. Never heard of Herbie's audio products before I started in on my research of isoacoustics. I'm wondering if there spike pucks do the same thing as the gaia's do? There pricing is attractive. So I was hoping to hear from someone who may have had both and could give me there feedback.

Thanks, 
Steve

Just try out the Gaias. I got my Oreas from musicdirect.com and tried different ones to see which gave the best results. The ones that didn't, I sent back for a full refund, minus the cost of shipping them back. No biggie.

Knowing the weight of your speakers will narrow down the size of the Gaia footers. I'd go for ones that support 40-75% of the weight needed, and not just one that makes it by 10%. I learned the hard way as it makes a big difference.

All the best,
