I just purchased the IsoAcoustics Gaia II’s and carpet spikes for my setup.
Got them installed and they are a very nice product and well built. I just couldn’t stand how big they were (I don’t need to see them) plus they raised my speakers 2” higher at their lowest adjustment.
They worked well and seemed keep resonances down a lot. I actually have a couple of songs that I play at a certain level for sampling and once installed they made me want to crank it up about 2-3dB.
While I had those I ordered the Herbie’s spike/sliders (regular size & titanium) which just arrived today so I removed the Gaia’s and put the OEM spikes back in and put the herbie sliders underneath each spike.
Played my normal sample songs and was amazed at how these simple looking little pucks made the music come alive.
I think the IsoAcoustics are nice but they seemed to kill the lively-ness of the room. Some people may like that and may work better but these pucks are staying in my system.
I was skeptical of both products on whether either would help isolate my speakers and stands from a second floor wood subfloor with carpet. They both did but the pucks worked better for me.
When you see them you think there’s not much to them but once in your head it’s kind of like they’re like little air pockets or shocks.
They are keepers!
