KEF Reference 5-Isoacoustics GAIA?


I’ve posted before about my KEF Reference 5 speakers.  I’ve been experimenting with placement and found that moving them farther apart made a big improvement.  I also am trying the suggestions—I believe by Audiotroy— to toe the speakers inward some more to tame the treble. I love how the KEFs reproduce piano and cello music but violins sound too harsh and screechy for my taste.  I think the toe in helps.  Also, the violin sound may just be a result of the digital (CD) source.  I will see how violins sound on vinyl.  

One question.  I’ve been considering the Isoacoustics Gaia or pucks.  My speakers are on a hardwood floor, currently resting on the included spikes.   I’ve been in contact with Isoacoustics and they can provide a threaded rod to fit the outrigger of the KEFs if I go withnthe Gaia.  Has anyone tried these Isoacoustics products with KEF Reference 5s?  If so, I’d appreciate your thoughts.   Audiotroy, I woud be very interested in your experience.  I know that these products probably won’t impact the treble but may tighten up the bass.

Dave / Audio Doctor, per my experience, is helpful, patient, and effective in guiding one towards achieving their audio issues / goals.

If you do go forward with the GAIAs, let us know how they work out. All the best.
D2girls  we just mentioned two examples of recommending product lines we dont carry.

We carry close to 60 lines of gear based upon quality of sound, value for dollar, and technology.

What we dont carry is also important in many cases we have tested and moved on.

D2girls have u done this comparision of the Audio Magic vs the Niagra?

Do u think we would shell out $9k for a power conditioner that wasnt better then one we allready have?

You only know something by trial and error and  by doing comparisions.

Do u also not think it is easier to agree with the heard rather then going against it?

I put the Gaia on my Focal Sopra 3 and they are very much worth the price in my case.
@fast     A couple of recommendations... 1st,  put a rug or 2 on the floor in front of and in between you and the speakers.  Next, I strongly recommend the triangular type set up... Meaning your distance between the center of your speakers is the same as the distance from your speakers to your ears.  In this case,  you can normally get that full width distance before your soundstage will collapse, this gives you a large spacious stage.  Next,  What you stated for tow in is reverse.... a full tow in (pointed at your ears) will give you the fullest most detailed presentation, but can show peaks in the room or any abnormalities... So, start with a full tow, then turn the tow outward a few degrees at a time, until you have tamed your response or in this case the harshness or screeching sound.  I use a cheap laser pointer along the side of my speakers to get alignment correct between left and right channels.... 
This should help,  Good Luck,  Tim
