Have been using Golden Cuboids for many years now, they are wonderful under lightweight components such as preamp CD player, DAC etc. etc. amplifiers especially heavy ones are a different story and require other means of support such as cones (brass, aluminum, they all sound different), balls or even damping soft materials like foams or other stuff, never use rubber it just sound plain bad and slows music down, also robs dynamics and muddies up the bass and mids, same for sorbotane pads.

Strength:
Worth a try at the price and in a high resolution system, you should hear a difference under some components.
Weakness:
One must be ready to accept that money spent for higher priced "isolation" products is not always required for the sound you want. The price is for 6. I have the smaller Cardas cubes and have tried them throughout my system. They do alter or adjust the tonal quality in my tube preamp and amps and I like the tonal balance with these over what I hear with standard rubber feet, metal cones, EAR and even the Ceraball products. It's not a matter of cost vs. performance, but rather fine tuning. In my case there is a slight increase in detail without a leaner sound. I have found that cones and the like alter the bass / midrange balance too much.
