A dramatic difference. If one of your goals for music reproduction is a clear view into the music, these speaker feet help rather a lot. I was skeptical. I believed that all I had invested in carefully choosing each component in my system yielded excellent results. Yet the same care or perhaps obsession that guided my choices suggested, rather like a little devil whispering in my ear, “What can you lose? If it doesn't make things better just send it back.” At first I was close to returning them. I thought it odd that reviews were so good and my result was so so. Then I reviewed the installation instructions and noticed it showed some of the threaded shaft exposed. I had installed the devices flush to the bottom of the speakers. Adjusting the devices so that at least a ¼ inch of the threaded shaft was exposed, orientation with the labels all facing forward, and all parts not just snug but tight was like the sun coming up and all the gushing reviews were accurate. Definition best describes the change for me. Once properly installed even more of the micro details that inform the illusion of musicians in the room became apparent. The improvement is something akin to very good power conditioning, less noise (that you didn’t realize was present) and thus more music. Note that instead of solidifying the connection to the floor as spikes and discs do so that the speakers are as immobile as possible this isolates the speakers and they seem to be on springs! Radically different but remarkably effective.

Put these under my Focal speakers and I was very impressed! The difference is not subtle.

Gaia II isolation feet definitely improved the soundstage and removed vibration from the second floor room.

Overall happy. Good solid foundation for my floorstanders and did notice some additional clarity.

The Gaia 2’s deliver as advertised. Vocals seem to float in space between the speakers and I’m hearing things way back in the mix that previously were hard to follow. The bass has also been cleaned up a bit. These are not subtle improvements. The Gaia’s took my speakers to another level.
