IsoAcoustics Gaia w/MAGICO

@pgnixon I removed my Isoacoustics Gaia Is and place the speakers without spikes or anything else on the Podiums. The speakers have on the bottom, round metal surrounds around where the spike or Gaias screw in. I placed round felt furniture feet on the bottom of those four metal surrounds and placed the speakers down on the Podiums resting on those four felt pads. 

vule, I watched the whole video and they said the same thing that the Townshend podiums were the best at isolation and made the sound stage much wider and deeper and the mid range much more detail and open and the highs as well and I totally agree cuz I have them as well.

havocman,

They were searching for perfection and re Townshands after the first wow impression at the end of a day they were not (completely)satisfied.

@vule I don't think many people will spend 2 1/2 hours watching the podcast you linked.  Could you summarize their findings for us?

I have both Magico's and Gaia but not on the same system.  I run Magico A1 speakers and have Isoacoustics Aperta's on them.  I feel the change was significant.  But could be due to my stands not being great.  I also have Gaia's on my Revel Studio's.  I liked the change enough to try Isoacoustics on the A1 but the change for the A1 was much more.  Overall, I think they are worth the addition.  At the very least you can better tilt your speakers.  I use them to point the tweeter better to my listening position.
