I have upgraded many components in my Hi-Fi system but this is absolutely the best one. I keep listening all my favourite albums again. I was blaming my room acoustics as we have concrete floor for not great listening experience. Did a lot to minimise the reflection but got to the point I decided to give up and than I thought let's try Gaia's as I can always send them back. They are not cheap but for what they did I think they worth every penny spent on them. The sound is just amazing, separation between instruments is great, nice tight bass (not muddled anymore) and I can listen just more details and I don't get listening fatigue anymore. I feel like I have upgraded the speakers. And the last thing they look stunning 👍

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! They work!

So I was researching various isolation feet for my Q Acoustics Concept 50 towers and I came across these Gaia 3 form Iso Acoustics. I read many, many reviews and the common thread was that these have a dramatic effect on the sound of the speakers. At nearly £400 for a set of 8, it was a considerable purchase for what could be just snake oil. But I was blown away with the dramatic effect these really do have of the overall sound of my system. Very open, transparent and full of life. Incredible bass. You could literally shut your eyes and hear an A/B difference. I wouldnt even say it was a slight difference but it's huge. If you are sitting on the fence then don't, it's worth getting them and taking advantage of Bolo's return policy for 30 days. All I can say is that I will not be returning these. They are staying firmly on my speakers.The only negative thing I could say was in the setup process having to have the logo facing forward in order for the pads to work correctly as they are directional. But once you set them up that's it. You won't need to do it again. Overall I would give these a 10/10 relating. Very pleased.

I was recommended to try these by my local hi-fi dealer after purchasing new B&W702S3. I read rave reviews about the effects of these but was sceptical given the price. I went for the Gaia III since my speakers were only 1kg "over the limit" before having to spend another £200 for two sets of Gaia II. Only downside was that I had to order the appropriate threaded connectors from Futuresounds as none of the 'standard' ones supplied by Isoacoustics fitted - would have been nice to be able to select the appropriate fittings free of charge when purchasing, not having to pay an additional fee to get them to fit.Anyhow, on to the important bit. If you have hard floors and are happy with the speaker positioning then I suggest you mark it up beforehand because once fitted & in position they don't want to move!I thought my speakers sounded good beforehand but adding these tightened the bass and consequently improved the soundstage and clarity of the sound (speakers were previously on B&W supplied feet). I played tracks that I had used for the original demo and immediately knew I would be keeping the Gaias. Highly recommended if you have good quality speakers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding. No really!

How can screw in lumps of metal make your hifi sound even slightly better. I have no idea but they really do.I bought two sets through Bolo just to try, knowing that if this was all a bit rubbish then I could return them.I screwed them to my Partington dreadnought stands and waited for the first track to play with nothing but doubt.They make the sound much richer. More focus on vocals and instruments. A hugely more dynamic sound, much more bass. Soundstage is wider.No problem recommending them. They are expensive, but if you are finding your system a bit flat sounding then try them. They work. Cheaper than upgrading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing upgrade!

This upgrade with my PMC speakers, has been nothing short of phenomenal! Could describe the improvement to clarity separation, bass control, but better just to say that they allow the speakers to just sound right, as though liberating the full potential of the speakers.Maybe the suspended wooden floor was adversely effecting the sound, but these simple though good looking isolators have brought about a huge improvement. The upgrade has been on a par with a very costly power supply upgrade for my turntable. They’re that good!Extremely highly recommended accessory. The hype was right!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Discernible results !

I used these for isolating my speaker stands from the wooden floor, the Gaias' are beautifully made and they really worked for me - I hear an appreciable improvement in clarity, overall coherence and imaging particularly on the treble. I guess more distortion was coming through from my wobbly floor than I recognised ! These are not cheap, but a worthwhile upgrade, I would recommend on making it one of your first if you are tweaking your HiFi , now I have experienced them I will definitely include this method of speaker isolation as a system essential from here on in.

The reviews are absolutely correct ✅

Incredible…

I cannot believe what these little things do. I consider my equipment quite high end. Dynaudio heritage special - McIntosh MA352 - Chord Dave - Qobuz via Audirvāna on Mac mini - Inakustik air cables.What can I say…adding these isolators to my speakers are a revelation.Everything sounds much clearer, soundstage opens broadens dramatically…I cannot locate my speakers anymore even with open eyes…everything is just soundstage. Before there was something subtle that was bothering me…now I know that must have been some vibrations that was disturbing the music. Now gone! The last time I had this leap in sound quality was when I made a switch from chord Qutest to Dave. This jump is similarly big, but for much smaller money.If I could, I would kiss the dude or lady whoever invented is ingeniously simple pieces of gear!

Beautiful and effective.

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.
