Isoacoustics GAIA question

+1, david_ten.  

Thank you @david_ten   .. I really didn't want to pay that extra 600usd :(
Maybe i won't buy it at all then...

@tonediary  I completely understand. It's a big 'hit' especially relative to the 2s. If you do not have any isolation (other than the feet/footers/base supplied) I highly, highly recommend some form of isolation. My opinion - speaker isolation is as important as the cabling you choose to use with the speakers. In some cases, the upside is even greater.

You have a number of options. The GAIAs are an easy one to try out and if you go through the right channel, are easily returnable.

@tonediary, if you're in the UK, you have a good alternative to the GAIA. Townshend Audio makes a line of great isolation products, all incorporating his Seismic Pod. Check out his You Tube video describing and explaining it, and demonstrating it's effectiveness.

Anyone know of any gaia vs Townshend comparisons? I’ve considered a pair of Townshend bars as well as the gaia’s for my speakers. Still not sure what direction I’ll go, although I do like the Townshend videos. They’re persuasive for the science types...
