IsoAcoustics GAIA


I have IsoAcoustics GAIA II isolators installed on my Sonus faber Liuto floorstander speakers on hardwood floor. I expected some improvement and I got it. Bass is cleaned up and tightened. Stage became more clear because isolators removed a curtain made by unfocused, scattered bass. Floor and sofa vibrations almost disappeared completely. And... WAF is good. GAIAs passed my wife's inspection. Is there anybody with some experience regarding those isolators?

I just bought a pair of Sonus Farber speakers and haven’t put Gaia’s on them yet, but when I put them on my KEF Reference 5’s, they made an instant improvement in the presentation and the bass.

Vote for with the carpet spikes.  I ran one with one without and switched L to R channels, same test I did with and without GAIA's.

I had a little luck with my Gaia’s after replacing them with platforms. The threading for the speakers was identical to the threading on my amp stands. So, I removed the carpet spikes from the amps, replaced them with the Gaia’s and ordered some of the carpet spikes for the Gaia’s. 

The Gais's are one of the most expensive tweaks that I've tried. After installing them I had instant regrets; and, not because they were bad. My results were so good, that my regret was not trusting my instincts and trying them sooner.

Of course, they won't be this successful for everyone; but, the money back guarantee means that it's a no - lose situation.  

Been intrigued with all this stuff, really only played around with my turntable. 

My speakers are on cork/rubber blocks purchased from Amazon on the cheap. They do what you all are saying the Gais's are doing. Do you think they would be an improvement over what I got? 

My HT subs are on Hockey Pucks, works great for me.
