Shakti Stone


Does anyone have any experience with this?They claim it is noise reduction accessory.Seems like a low cost tweak for only $175.00.

Stoned since 1995!

What it does:

"Shakti Stone eliminates/minimizes external EM field exposure"

How it works:

US patent 5.84.761 explains it all and includes exploded views for even more clarity. Basically the Stone is an EMI dissipation or dispersion device using three different circuits. Each circuit is tuned for a certain band like microwave, radio frequency and electric field.

Circuits explained in this review.

EMI Testing - have fun...

No wonder they hold their price!

I use mu metal to shield my phono step up from EMR. HVAC is outside nearby and causes noise otherwise.  I wonder if Shakti would work for that? Would be an interesting test. 

@mitch2  *L*  Not so much crypto, more like cryptic....
If the former, the price would have oscillating up ’n down like a yoyo....

I’ve an old friend that still owns her fathers’ ’41 Ford with a flathead 4, the front engine mounts are a pair of water pumps.  One of the ’duties’ of being her boytoy was to periodically jack the engine up and take the weight off the pumps to replace one or the other and recycle it.  Turns out, then and likely still now, the pump traveled to Brazil to be restored and returned.

Turns out, like Cuba, there’s still a lot of the old iron still on the streets.
We thought of, but never tried, marking the case of one to see if it ever ended up back in our possession eventually....

One wonders if the stones are subject to the same song ’n dance if they end up back in a dealers’ shelf as @testpilot noted. 
Ought not to be too difficult to recycle a rock.... 😏

Personally, I’d rather just do some ’inhalation therapy’ of a fav herbal that Yes, can’t be recycled but has far more impact on my audio appreciation events....

...but, to mangle a quote, I’m just bored that way...;)
