Isolation platforms for Cube Audio Jazzon speakers

Gents,

I ordered the Townshend Seismic Sound Bars today for my speakers. They are less than half the price of the Seismic Platforms and might be nearly as efficacious.  I am sure that they will be a nice improvement.

My Italian friend with upgraded Nenuphars has recently purchased the new Qualio speakers and prefers them his Cubes. The Qualio's have gotten fab reviews in 6 Moons and elsewhere and are half the price of the Nenuphars.  I'd be keen to hear them sometime.  

Check out this thread, in the Misc section for another option.

Thanks Ozzy, these seem quite affordable and effective, but there is no way to attach them to the bottom of the Cubes, so the Townshend Platforms or Sound Bars are the best alternative.  

This comment from the company seems very dubious:  

Here is what Stack Audio replied to my question.

"The AUVA Loudspeaker Isolators have a burn in time to let the particles settle. We estimate around 6-7 hours although customers have noted continuous improvement up to the 20-hour mark in the past."

"Just a follow up note – I should also mention that several customers comment that no burn in time is required and there is an immediate impact. I think it varies on a case-to-case basis.

I ordered the Townshend Sound Bars which are expected to arrive in a few days times.  I remember when I put Iso-Acoustic GAIA footers under my Spatial Audio M4 Triode Masters whereupon the improvement in SQ was instantly apparent.  I am hopeful for the same improvement with the Townshend Sound Bars.   

I got them today and  am having a hard time trying to get my speakers levels with the adjustments with these Sound Bars under my Cube Audio Jazzon speakers.  Information from Townshend has not been helpful.  I sorta got them leveled and frankly don't hear any noticeable improvement in the SQ.  I used the sandwiched rubber pads under the Cubes prior and they might be more efficacious that I might have thought.  

Any tips on the setup would be most helpful as well as any comments on their performance would be very welcome.  In contrast, putting Iso-Acoustics GAIA footers under my Spatial Audio speakers yielded a fantastic improvement in SQ...  immediately.  I am not hearing anywhere close to the same improvement with the far more expensive Townshend Sound Bars.
