I installed Gaia III footers on my trusty VPI HW-19 Mk. IV. They did seem to improve the isolation and thus the sound.
BUT (and it is a big one), you have to be very careful about the threaded inserts into which you screw the Gaia footers. The bottom of the Gaia footer is shaped a lot like a suction cup. So it is going to really stick to the surface on which it is set. And the material of this bottom part of the Gaia is a lot like sorbothane, which in itself is very, very sticky.
Put these two characteristics together, and the Gaia footers really and truly do grip very powerfully whatever surface they are placed upon.
Twice—when lifting the turntable—I pulled the threaded inserts out of the bottom of the turntable frame. I had to reinsert them and re-glue the inserts.
So, be warned and be careful.
If you really do want your turntable to stick (as if glued down) to its mounting surface, use Gaia footers.
