Or if you have a brain it sounds pretty lame !!!

Hey, you're a poet and don't know it.

Mpingo discs are ridiculous and utterly useless, except as coasters maybe if they're large enough. I can leave 4 acoustic guitars out (along with a piano that's always there) in my listening room and my rig remains unaffected, although if loud enough the guitars might vibrate a little. Years ago I was visiting a neighbor who was a serious gear reviewer and the Mook freaks had been to his place (a large dedicated and serious listening room…amazing) and "tuned" it with various discs…on stands…stuck to the wall…none of them did anything at all. They became a joke among the "non myth based" audio community along with Tice clocks and other mystical faith based audio silliness. Geoffkait seemingly never met an imaginary tweak he didn't think was real, and markets his own stuff like a bag of magic pebbles…so you can see where he's coming from.

Whoa! What? Hey, Wolfman, you shouldn’t disparage that which you know nothing about. I hate to judge too harshly but I suspect you might benefit from enlarging your circle of friends.  😄  What did you do with the humorous Wolfman? This one is just another angry grumpy pseudo skeptic. 😛

Actually, Wolf, having a guitar or two well placed in one's listening room, not to mention also something as massive as a piano, could do a lot to "tune" the room.  Surely, your system would sound "different" if you pulled out the piano.  This makes perfect sense to me.

I once inadvertently left a large empty cardboard box in my listening room.  It absolutely killed the sound in various ways.

Where we do agree is that the Shun Mook discs are much too tiny to do anything substantive, and the notion that such a thing could "regulate the resonance" of other much more massive objects is unbelievable/absurd/fallacious.

Geoffkait…if you read my post you should be able to see I DO know something about useless tweaks.

There are tiny "transducers" people use that appear to be metal JuJuBees that are also laughable, and misuse the term "transducer," so beware of those also...My upright piano is against the back wall and it would take a VERY high level of sound to excite it. I’m not about to haul it out to check if it’s making a difference, but it does if you play it while my stereo is on…stop that…just stop...I’ve been a professional musician and audio geek for over 5 decades, and currently get paid to mix live concert sound for astonishingly accomplished musicians…been doing that for a couple of decades. This doesn’t make me more qualified to comment on stuff, but at least I can claim I’m a Professional something or other. I "tune" my listening room with its sloping ceiling that goes from around 8 to 15 feet or so, my furniture, carpet, books, CDs, myself, and jo mama.
