Schumann Resonator

Are these things supposed to be placed flat so that the coil points up or on edge with the coils pointing towards what?

I've got ten of them all over the place, some pointing one way some pointing another. Sometimes one falls over and dangles whichever way. When I notice I put it back. I've never noticed any difference in sound from any of them no matter which way they're going. Ditto the 5 ft off the floor advice, got some right on the floor they are if anything more effective there than 5ft up. 

These things are radiating radio waves. The spiral circuit board trace is the broadcast antenna. Probably if you dig into it enough you will find the radiation pattern is some sort of dipole. Like it matters. The thing is so small that for all intents and purposes the radiation pattern is a sphere. And it don't matter which way you point a sphere. 

The effect will of course be stronger closer than farther away. We know this because no matter where Krissy puts hers the cat finds it and curls up right next to it.

I have my single placed on top of my brass  Platter Ground which sits on the top shelf of a Sistrum rack.
The unit faces up at an acoustic lens of sorts that surrounds my projection screen. The acoustic lens was conceived to capture and  focus energy that travels the ceiling some which maybe lost especially bass and redirect to the listening area.  Room is 27/21/9 with another acoustic lens that covers a soffit.

To my ears the resonator sounds as if it adds space to a system that is already wall to wall. This added space seems to come with a higher degree of focus and detail and with a more stable image all across the wall. The image seemed wider more stable and made me feel more at ease and relaxed..not stuck to my chair with my head in a vice. May add 5 to 7 more to place inside more of my acoustic lenses that reside on the floor in 4 locations.

Ace Venturi.

That was a movie Jim Carrey was in.

Well Mr. Schumann landed in my space today. Both he and Ace Venturi the Master of Laminar Flow have improved articulation, soundstage and overall musicality in my listening room this evening. Tom

Where do you use the laminar flow venturi device and how?

Or is it a secret? You mention it and i want to know.... Thanks,,,

By the way what is your acoustic lens?
