It's probably a good thing you didn't try to claim precedence since you bobbled the ball on how the Shun Mook stuff worked. Sometimes silence is golden. -;)
"Never get behind anyone 100%" - old audiophile adage

That is only your opinion, since apparently you had never took one apart, or xrayed one. Still the point is I do not falsely make extravagant claims for an "invention" you did not make....especially since since Shun Mook did the same thing without the plastic bottle or zip lock bag.
I do admit though, they did not buy their faceted crystals off of Ebay like you do.
My claims are neither extravagant or false. When I introduced Brilliant Pebbles more than 10 years ago at the London HiFi Show, they were the first and only (crystal based) product that addressed the entire room and audio system. The Suite of Brilliant Pebbles comprised several different sizes of bottles, each with a number of applications - Large bottles for room corners, top of output transformers, on top of Tube Traps, and on top of speaker cabinets; Mini bottles for the top of CD players and power cord plugs, and Mikro bottles for RCA jacks, glass windows, proximity to electron tubes, to name some applications. Furthermore, if sound pressure peaks in the 3 dimensional space of the room can be identified (you can use a box with holes punched in it if you don't have a sound pressure level meter; all you need is a test tone). Brilliant Pebbles can be placed in some or all of those locations to reduce comb filter effects. Thus, Brilliant Pebbles is a comprehensive approach for complete system resonance control and room acoustics tuning.Brilliant Pebbles was introduced at the HiFi Show in 2003. From Audiopax/Ecosse/Meitner exhibit coordinator (Precious Music, Scotland): "Now, if I say that dozens of people said we had the best sound at show, many other said we had the best sound they had ever heard, many dealers, competitors and reviewers came round to check out the room and in particular the Audiopax Amp and Meitner dac...well you can imagine we felt pretty pleased with our efforts." (4 Brilliant Pebbles were used in this room -- one on each Audiopax speaker and two in room corners.) Ladies and gentlemen, I implore you, is that being extravagant? :-)

Who uses BP at shows these days? Must have made a huge improvement in sound if no one uses it today.
Shun Mook spatial stabilizers uses their crystal enclosed by a wooden disc rather than a plastic jar... And they were well ahead of you. Just because you couldn't see the crystal doesn't mean that you invented the idea: far from it. Anyone can place a kitchen aide spice jar full of rocks and achieve the same purpose for afar cheaper. At least the Shun Mook people did not have the hubris to claim inventing the idea.
PS: I've tried them (your Briliant Pebbles), doesn't work as you claim it does, or, if it does, the improvements are far outshadowed by other tweaks.
There are a lot of potential reasons why my BP didn't work for you. I personally suspect your system is not resolving enough plus if you didn't but them directly from me you would not have received my instructions for their use. From you you have said on your many posts you have no idea how to use them. What can I say?At least the Clever Clock worked for you. Looks like I'm batting .500. Lol.
Gee, I wish there were more of me. Sigh.

Per your instructions, the Clock had a very tiny impact. Placing them contrary to your recommendations worked far better. As a matter fact going to my local drug store, and purchasing a cheap digital clock and placing neodymium magnets on the face worked far better and a hundred dollars cheaper too as I recall.Its easy to say my system is less resolving, because you have never heard it. But I get really three dimensional imaging and superb detail even with normal discs, detail which is not overly bright in any way but very natural sounding. And I have heard my competitors systems, some featuring $100K speakers and systems and my systems reveal more detail than theirs. I do admit theirs do play louder, though.
Oh yeah: I got mine and the clock from a friend who purchased them directly from you. He gave them to me, BTW, as I do not believe he heard much difference.

Nt
I figure to plop three of these (18"-24") tall in my living room. One on top of the receiver and one next to the Turntable and the other next to the DVD/CD player, no baggies needed. I should be covered crystal wise,plus they look nice. Possibly a Himalayan salt lamp on the the arm side of the turntable for night use. Any value in a big salt crystal near the gear ? :^)
Can I suggest you take another big hit off the bong?
Bong? Geoffkait did you invent something new ? Where do you use a "bong" thing in the system ? You said crystals were a good thing and Stu says their no good , which is correct ?
