IsoAcoustics Gaia Footers AND Townshend Seismic Podiums

This might sound counterintuitive, but has anyone tested whether having IsoAcoustics Gaia footers ON TOP of Townshend podiums make any improvement, or at least do not degrade the sonics compared to using the Townshend podiums on their own?

I just got the Townshend podiums and already have Gaia I footers on my T+A Solitaire S 530 speakers. I am too lazy to go back to the stock feet so now I have the Gaia between the speaker and the podiums.

I’ve seen a lot of discussions of IsoAcoustics and Townshend in the same thread but have yet to come across anyone who has tried using both at the same time.

Hey You might be on to something! Or you could be beat down for attempting such an act. Time will tell as others chime in.

The first thing that came to mind was when Nikon introduced the VR (vibration reduction) lenses. It was advised that VR is effective when hand-holding the camera while taking the picture. If the camera is on a tripod the VR might not be effective or introduce blur - I do not recollect exactly how.

Might not be the case with speaker footers - but lets see if anyone actually has any experience in this.

IsoAcoustics Gaia footers ON TOP of Townshend podiums

Hmmmmmm….. Never thought about this. Truly “outside the box” thinking. I have a very positive experience with IsoAcoustics GAIA in my three most recent pairs of speakers, including current speakers, but never got around to try Townshend.
