Had anybody tried this

After reading the above articles, I found inexpensive bells in Ebay similar to Audio Magic room correction bells

That cost me 70$ for 30 bells including Blu Tack .

I expect to get it later this week or early next week.

I will have fun to play with this.

It is half the cost of 150$ SR blue fuse.


I do not expect to get wider soundstage( it is already wide enough beyond my speaker before trying this out).

But I am curious whether it can have effect similar to Audio Magic room correction bells, that is,

increased midrange body with little or no flattening of the soundstage (quoted in 6moons review).

I will let you know when I finish this chaepskate game.

It is a good idea to fork over less money for a useless and utterly ridiculous tweak. It just makes sense.

I got delivery of 30 bells this morning.

I had put on 10 bells  behind the speakers.

It seems to give some sparkle.

I will listen for a day and then I will try 10 more on the opposite side.

Any tweaks can be dependent on system and personal taste.

If you are curios, you have to try yourself to find out.

Just to mention that there are actually rules for how to place the bells for max benefit. Placing bells silly nilly can actually hurt the sound just like placing tube traps or any other acoustic device silly nilly can hurt the sound. Upper corners and first reflection points are good places to start. One bell at a time then listen. Otherwise it’s like trying to solve ten simultaneous equations in twenty unknowns.

Your statement make sense but I am lazy and let me see my 1 day’s impression.

Later I can try to remove one by one to observe the difference.

I am playing Elvis Presley.

Somehow I got the impression that his voice come out more clearly.

It could be due to resonance out of bells.

Some tolerable sibilance which also depends on personal taste.

If you are curios, you have to try yourself to find out. since it cost less than 20 bucks for 10 bells plus shipping.

I ordered 30 not to pay shipping( over 50$ free) and I got it in 3 days after order.
