Some speakers, though, leave a sliver of O-ring, washer, or thread showing between the isolator and the cabinet. Others give the compression washer only a narrow surface to bear against. The GAIA Neo Cap handles both. It covers the top of the isolator with a finished, machined collar and carries the compression washer inside it, so the contact stays full and firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003eClean on top, solid underneath.\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA finished look. The cap covers the O-ring channel, the compression washer, and the thread inlet, so the isolator meets the speaker with a single clean line.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull contact on narrow surfaces. The compression washer sits inside the cap, which spreads its contact where the mounting surface is small. IsoAcoustics recommends the cap whenever GAIA Neo goes on the B\u0026amp;W D3\/D4\/D5 Plates for exactly this reason.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA natural partner for the M8 Spacer. On compatible Sonus faber speakers, the GAIA Neo M8 Spacer and GAIA Neo Cap work together for a tidy front install.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit and Installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the cap that matches your GAIA Neo model and finish. The inner hole measures 12.5 mm (1\/2 in), so the cap fits M12, 1\/2 in, and smaller threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cap takes up a little of the thread length between the isolator and the speaker. For most installs with the cap, IsoAcoustics recommends its longer x20 GAIA Neo thread adaptors, and we order those for you free of charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation takes a minute per foot. Thread in the correct adaptor and remove the O-ring. Seat the compression washer inside the cap. Then set the cap and washer onto the GAIA Neo, inside the O-ring channel, and thread the isolator into the speaker as usual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere It Fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GAIA Neo Cap is the finishing touch for any GAIA Neo install where the top of the isolator is on display, and the right call on adapter plates and narrow speaker bases. If you're ordering GAIA Neo for B\u0026amp;W 800 Series speakers on the D3\/D4\/D5 Plates, add a set of caps to the order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePress Recognition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccessories rarely get reviews of their own. This one earns its credit as part of the GAIA Neo system, which has drawn praise from The Absolute Sound, Hi-Fi+, SoundStage! Ultra, StereoNet, Audiophilia, and Positive Feedback, and builds on a GAIA family named Stereophile's Accessory of the Year and an EISA Best Product.
