has anyone else tried Lloyd Walkers latest tweak


Lloyd Walker has a new tweak: the black diamond crystal for cartridges. It's a crystal you put on either the tonearm or the cartridge that [I KID YOU NOT] transforms the sound!
I know, I know, [don't ask me to explain it,I can't] it can't be all that, but i'm tellin you try this thing [if you don't like it you can return it] for less than half the price of a really good cartridge you get A REALLY GOOD CARTRIDGE!!!
Please post your experience

Hey ya’ll. Allow me to chime in. I’m just another philosophizer about crystals (at least for now)…no empirical evidence here! But have been trying many things in the past years to rid my phono set up of CB radio and faint long wave interference.

A video link to what this malicious interruption was like is on my blog: http://brooklynaudiophile.blogspot.com/

I gave up months ago. Then I explored Walker Audio’s website, talked to Mr. Walker, and bought his Eliminator-T. Thought I would start on the cheap. Problem was just about solved! I can only hear very faint remnants of that highly annoying RFI disturbance and only when the volume is turned up very high (past 2o’clock).

So that has inspired me to believe this Black Crystal may be what it claims… I hope to attain one for my next up grade.

Furthermore, for folks still interested in the connection between crystals and RFI/EMI, for your consideration:

Further furthermore, the Black Diamond seems to be relatively cheap and better looking when compared to these Swedish dudes:

Hello, the article you linked to actually doesn't link absorption of RFI to crystals, it only links emission of RFI to crystals. Sorry about that.
To all the guy's posting silly comments about Lloyd's Crystals,The jokes on you,I've had them for two days and the music has somehow been energised,lit from within.
Dear Tawa, I guess your subjective opinion that the crystals make your system sound better makes it just "silly" to question how they might actually work, in the light of the claim that they absorb RFI.
