What ever happened to....


VPI Magic Bricks?

@mike_in_nc :   "It didn’t."           It wasn’t designed/intended to.
I have used them for over 30 years.  Yes, they do the job they were designed to do.   I use 3 in my system.  In my secondary system, I use one to hold a lightweight DAC in place.  The power cord and interconnects which are all audiophile approved and stiff was pulling the DAC right off the rack.  The Magic Brick took care of it and it looks pretty cool too.  When I bought the 4 bricks, I paid $50.00 each.  This is one tweak that actually works and I have never been sorry.  I polish them with “Pledge” every 2 weeks and they still look brand new. 
A fellow audiophile laid a couple on me for a while...and it's a good thing he didn't drop them on my toes.  Anyway, I placed them wherever they were supposed to be placed.  I might have heard a microscopic improvement in the sound.
Edcyn, you were trying too hard. Teo, there is a sucker born every moment. What I am is violently projected literacy exposing patent ideocracy. You believe what you want and we shall chock it up to mysticism. 
The bricks are a sink for transformer born EMI. That‘s what they are made for and that‘s what they do if your system is sufficiently resolving. The only more powerful way I have found to achieve the same goal is Acoustic Revive‘s REM-8 and they actually work well in combination.
