Re: Tom, I had the same experience with a Shakti stone...

While I don't discount your experiences tubeguy, consider another one. You say the VPI bricks weigh 8lbs. My audio dealer recently told me that he'd tried these, and while they had an effect, they also tried putting a dead weight on the amp, and it had the same effect.

And those Shakti things? (Are they the one's that look like large wooden candleabras?). They cost maybe $1500, and he said they improved things, but that the effect was nominal - he couldn't sell them because he couldn't stand behind them. He told me that a potted plant about the same height as the candleabras actually had a better effect than the audio product. 2nd hand info yes, but perhaps worth considering.
