Miracles in Audio, by luck, by good choices,by design or by tweaking...

If you bought a new "miraculous product" that will be good,but not "miraculous", like I bought, : the wave magnetic guide of Alan Maher, remember this : Any "so called miraculous product" in your mind or in the mind of the marketing brain will introduce noise of his own, by virtue of his own electronics or even by simply mechanical vibrations of his solid casing and parts and the produced unwanted resonances...

After plugging this good product indeed , I was not entirely satisfy... I decide to treat the exterior casing of the magnetic A.M. waveguide with Fo.Q tuning tape but also Sorbothane duro 70 1/4 inches thick(very good for audio)…(for sure I added some tourmaline stones also) The 2 tapes cleans so much noise that my new Fostex T10 gained much in rendering less recessed higher frequencies (their only defect for me)...

Morality: If some company claims something about " one miraculous product" that cures all, it is not true, the truth is always in audio, many cleaning methods works together with all new product including miraculous one... There is always the necessity, nevermind what you will buy, to tweaks the acoustic atmosphere of the room, the mechanical vibrations, and the high level noise (E.M. or mechanical) introduced by any new link, even "the so-called miraculous one"... By the way I like the Alan Maher wave guide, that is way more effective now, I only say that all new link must be treated also, in this case for mechanical vibrations...

I bought this product to further enhance mostly the Fostex T10 my only headphone of choice now and the goal is achieved...The Fostex T10 an old orthodynamic ( paid 80 bucks) is really better now that all my past headphones, including a paid 300 bucks chineese modern orthos that I never really loved ...But without many tweaks improving the electrical embeddings of the audio grid in the house, in the room, or on each link by itself, nothing will satisfy me now...Nothing...However i am satisfy now and really listen music to my likings from my headphone for the first time after 8 headphones in 7 years...A potential good headphone like the Fostex T10 is not enough by itself, even with a good amp, and a good dac, it takes methods to clean the noise floor of the gear, the room and the house...

Maybe it’s like acupuncture. The standard procedure is poking a needle into the skin at strategic locations on the body. But electrifying the needles is the next step up. I’ve had both prod endures done, by the way. But the question is (at least for the acupuncture needles) is the method of operation physical/mechanical or is it electrical? Along the same lines, why are crystals effective as massage props and for meditation? Have you ever experimented with Lemurian Quartz Crystals from Brazil? Blow your mind! 🤯

Yes Geoff I use Lemurian Quartz to great avails... It is better in general to use Herkimer, pink quartz also, lemurian etc They are better in audio than only standard regular quartz...

I have " mathematical faith" in a universal grid memory information processing field, it is not science, it is faith nourished by contemplation of the numbers plane and vectors reality...Except for that I dont know how to answers your interesting question like usual...My best to you from the past to the future...(I am from the past) :)


P.S. I think that your metaphor with acupuncture is very spot on....

An example of my use of quartz is about a thin stick of lemurian quartz, but of the "smoked" variety, that i have placed on the cables knot of my headphone... I have taped chrysocolla beads with one stick of Lemurian "smoked" quartz in between and the result are audible for the rendering of timbre; the chrysocolla act for me more about the imaging first, the lemurian of the "smoked" variety add "body" to that and more than that enhancing the imaging effect of the chrysocolla.......

I use one under my pillow. Pink or clear only.  I’ll come back in time and check from time to time. 🤡
