VR4 JR and VIBRAPODS... Good or bad match up?

Hello,

Having recently stumbled upon the advantages of isolation devices for components, I ventured to the VIBRAPOD website... even made a call to them... they pointed out there were some mentions of their use with previous VR speakers. the Vibrapod rep said I could even use them to replace the rubber points separating the top and bottom modules! Amazing!

Isolate speakers? I thought. No. Join them to the floor, that's what everyone I talk to says...

So how about it? Anyone use Vibrapods or the like with a positive outcome on their speakers? I sure would like to find the outcome of how this has helped or hindered others.... and to what effect.

I have a set of VR4GenIII's & use Herbie's Footers between the modules. I started out w/5 on ea. side but went to 7, as it helped stabilize the heavy side. 4 are along the heavy side, one in the middle & 2 on the other side. I'm also using one-piece SS spikes through the carpet to the wood floor & this combination works very well in my setup.

The Herbies Footers helped clean up the top module freqs while the spikes helped tighten the bass.
