Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Footers

Replacing the spikes in my Soundocity outriggers (Soundocity made me a set of outriggers with threaded holes) with the Isoacoustics Gaia 2 footers has improved the sound of my Merlin VSM speakers.  They now sound more open and articulate than with any combination of Z-feet or other spikes, with or without outriggers, on the floor or on a platform, that I've tried.  Like the Townshend products the Gaia footers completely decouple the speakers from the floor, allowing them to float.  See:

Hi all,

Is there a sonic benefit or cost to use a higher rated footer (gaia I) with a lighter weight speaker than what it's officially rated for? I want to get the ones that support the most weight so when I upgrade my speakers in the future with a heavier set the footers will be ok. Thanks!
