Under my tower speakers -- Isoacoustics Gaia, other options?

The basic design of the Sistrum and newer Rhythm stands is a steel platform with downward facing brass Audiopoints connecting the platform to the floor and upward facing Audiopoints connecting the platform to the equipment. The position of the points can be adjusted by sliding along slots in the platform. Each Audiopoint sits on brass coupling discs. It looks like newer versions have beefed up the coupling discs and there are options for different sizes discs. 

I’ve never heard of stands "settling in."

Audiophiles can imagine anything ;-)

Our perception is very plastic, but many audiophiles tend to attribute changes in their perception (for instance getting used to the sound of a new speaker or whatever) to "changes in the thing I’m listening to."

Fair enough. Correlation doesn’t mean causation  

@dmk_hifi  The carpet spikes under Gaia footers should not be feared.  Two person job, or a really smart dog helping.  After footers are set, simply tilt back some and have the other person or dog place under the center of the footer.  Repeat.

I have the Gaia 1's under my Focal Sopra II's, they made a huge difference and improved the sound tremendously which surprised me because the Sopra's sounds so good to start with.
