IsoAcoustics - A Class Act

@curiousjim The Gaia II footers appear to be well made and look nice. It's hard to do an A/B comparison with and without.

No dramatic difference that I can detect but I have to believe they are helpful in my bouncy floors. The Ref 1s already sounded fantastic.

I don't regret getting the Gaias, but there might be other areas where you could spend that money that would have more impact. 

But then again, your room, your ears, your floors... you might have a different experience.

which model do you suggest for CD/SACD player ?

Happy Listening!

Does anyone know if the Isoacoustics Gaia require break in after installation to sound good? If yes, approximately how many days? Or they will sound great right off the bat after installation?

Installed on speakers.

I find the setting up to be rather basic and not very precise as fine tuning of the footers to achieve a perfect level is not possible since the logo needs to face the front or back. The Gaia somehow has some tolerance built in to compensate for slightly uneven floors / inaccurate level adjustments of the Gaia.

I just put some Gaia II’s on my Marten Django’s. The improvement in bass and mid-range is dramatic. My floors were picking up a lot of resonance with the stock feet and that is all gone now. I am blown away how much of a difference they make. Decoupling the speakers from the floor makes sense and they truly seem to accomplish this. Give them a shot before you upgrade next and you may be surprised how good your speakers can sound. 

They will sound great out of the box.
