IsoAcousticsGaia Series Isolation Feet for Speakers & Subwoofers (Gaia III, 70 lb max) – Set of 4

I’ve used a set of IsoAcoustics III under my main HiFi speakers for the past five years. So, if longevity correlates with pleasure, these are one of the best things I’ve ever added to my HiFi.But, as a caveat, I worked for the North American Distributor that served as IsoAcoustics incubator as they just entered the global marketplace. I sold their products for eight years all across the United States before I left the distribution company.Fast forward seven years, January of this year, I took a position with IsoAcoustics as their USA Sales Manager and am again representing their products.All to say, it would be easy to say I’m just saying positive things because that’s where my paycheck comes from, but I purchased my set of Gaia III after I left the company years ago and they have remained under my main speakers everyday since.It is no exaggeration to say, until you’ve listened to your speakers with IsoAcoustics isolators under them, you’ve not heard all the musicality your loudspeaker manufacturer designed into them, due to uncontrolled resonance (vibration) re-entering your cabinets due to contact with the floor.As a music lover, I’ve found these products an indispensable part of my stereo listening experience.

Ordered a pair of Gaia III footers for a newly arrived set of Q Acoustics 5050 speakers and received them (as projected) the next day...items were well-packaged and were 'new' in the boxes....excellent service in all respects, and I would purchase from this supplier again without hesitation....This product does what it is said to do by providing a stable and adjustable foundation for the speakers while minimizing floor-borne vibrations (resonance) and enhancing sound quality. Thanks to Ian White (Ecoustics review) for the suggestion/recommendation....

I put the Gaia II feet on my KEF R7Meta speakers that sit on 3/4" thick wood over concrete floors. I noticed the bass response was not quite as loud, but tighter and crisp (!) . Mid range and voices became clearer. I'm not sure how much this had to do with the feet themselves or if it is just that the Uni-Q mid range/tweeters are now 1" higher up and closer to my seated ear level, either way I'm very pleased with these.These are very well built and "black chrome" finish looks awesome.

Installed a set on a Sony SW5 subwoofer. Had to get creative with the hardware due to the subwoofer's original feet not having threaded pilot holes. I'm using the SW5 with the Bravia Quad Theater System. A surprisingly neutral sounding system! Within minutes of playing an Atmos movie and a couple of music tracks, the difference was audible. Sounds as if there's more detail/texture in the bass notes and less boomyness. These feet are beautiful and feel luxurious in your hand. All of this could be my audiophile brain tricking me into spending more money. Never the less, I love this product.

I wasn't as shocked as some of the reviewers since I kind of already knew what to expect. I previously bought IsoAcoustics Aperta 200 stands for my desktop LS50's and was completely blown away so I expected similar results from the GAIA III feet. With the GAIA III's I got even more impressive results but that might be partly due to the fact that they went into a higher end system than my desktop setup.I have never gotten such a huge improvement in sound with this "cheap" of an investment. I put "cheap" in quotations because upgrading my speakers cables to an $1800 pair made a tremendous improvement in clarity and soundstage but don't hold a candle to the improvements that the GAIA III's brought.Apologies for the buzzwords but after adding the GAIA's I got crazy holographic sound imaging. The improvement in soundstage is unbelievable and undeniable. A second veil was lifted from my speakers. I experienced this "veil" lifting when I upgraded my speaker cables but the improvement with the GAIA's was even more drastic and at less than 1/4 the cost. There is a new level of clarity to the sound and upon listening to Beck's "Sea Change" album I was hearing parts of the song (instrument separation) that I previously had not noticed. It was the same "WOW" feeling I got when I upgraded my headphones from Beyerdynamic DT770's to Sennheiser HD800's.They removed a bloated bass problem that I thought was just poor room acoustics. Overall, the low end became really tight and focused sounding and there was a boominess that I used to get when sitting in the back of the room that is no longer there.Another benefit that I didn't expect was how much larger they made the "sweet spot". To get the best sound I used to have to sit dead center between my speakers about 6 feet from the rear wall. Moving forward, backwards, or to the sides as little as 1 foot really killed the soundstage. Now I can sit around 5 feet off center from the sweet spot in every direction but forward and it sounds almost as good as being dead center. This has made listening way more convenient since I have more freedom with where I sit without really compromising the sound.They also caused a significant improvement when watching movies. Before you definitely knew you were watching movies on a 2-channel system. The dialogue would get lost in the mix sometimes so I would always watch movies with subtitles. Now it sounds almost as if I've got a center channel installed when watching movies. Dialogue is so clear now that I can finally lose the subtitles.TLDR: Just try them! As long as the seller is "fulfilled by Amazon" you're protected by Amazon's gracious 30-day return policy. This allows you a no-risk demo of them and if you aren't blown away like every other reviewer you can always send them back with free return shipping and get a full refund. There's really no excuse not to try them with that 30-day return policy on the table. With so much snake oil in the audio world it's easy to be skeptical of products that promise big results but this is one product that I can say with 100% certainty is completely snake oil free. I've gotten big improvements from speaker cables but at great cost. I've spent hundreds on interconnects too with negligible results. The GAIA's and the Aperta 200's though... just WOW!

Huge improvement on my Turntable! Way more music!
