Schumann Resonator

I got 2 of these from Amazon...careful that free returns are applicable.  I charged them up, turned them on and holy moly.....they do help with my system.   What I hear is clarity....space between instruments, a definite difference in upright and electric bass, wider soundstage...you know...all the good stuff. At first I thought it might be increased brightness, but no....it is still the same in that regard.  I still can't believe it, and will listen again tomorrow (saved the packaging for the return)...but today, I'm about to keep them.

I've been using the Revive unit for many years and when 1st powered on I perceived a nice improvement, felt more "in-tune" with the music if that makes sense. A few yrs later bought another generic SR on Amazon but heard no additional improvement with it.

@rsf507 - Agreed. This idea that all the Schumann Resonator Generators are created equal so just buy the cheapest one is wrong.

I will report back here when I read something that is actually constructive or useful relating to the specific topic at hand. It ain’t happening. Half baked theories don’t cut it. Bye!

I’ve got to get back to my real job (which is not arguing on audio threads). Schumann Resonances go from 3Hz to 60Hz. The affect many electronic signals including the ones in our brain and audio signals. The fundamental at 7.83Hz seems to be the most pleasing. It’s as simple (or if you want to make it complicated) as that.

"Schumann Resonances aren’t "special". It’s just like any other electromagnetic field that must be controlled and manipulated in electronics."
Please clarify your statement. It is overwhelmingly agreed and an incontrovertible fact that electromagnetic interference is detrimental to electronics- in our case stereo equipment- which is purposely shielded against emi. How is introducing even more emi via an SG controlling and manipulating anything? What exactly is being controlled and manipulated? If this particular electromagnetic wave is in fact enhancing the sound, it is indeed very special.
