Shakti Stone

Total game-changer.  Veils are parted, windows are opened, equal to a component change, for sure!

One thing I can say, they have held their value better than just about any other thing in this hobby.  Instead of gold, consider Shakti Stones as your financial safe haven.

Flame away. I use them in my system to excellent effect.  One on my preamp and one on my phono stage.  It takes all of 5 seconds to remove them and another 5 seconds to put them back. I have not personally experienced any loss of spaciousness, any darkening/veiling of sound, or attenuation of upper mids and high frequencies.  I just hear more detail.  Probably just confirmation bias.

I don't have the stones to reply to this but I do use tinkertoy creations for cable lifters. Is there a sea change? Who cares, my cables are suspended and I'm just fine. The dude abides.

Really ?? Damn that’s funny stuff. Next thing ya know some goon will be Hawking the e-mat crap again, MC where are you ??? He could probably sell silly Puddy rolled in Coloured metal flakes mounted on porcelain risers, lots of people who’ve left their lunch on the bus…Lol.

Cheers

Used one on the amp and one on the sacd player....sold them 3 months later.
