I suspect there are 2 resonance characteristics at least in play

I was speaking in terms of the open mouthed bowl a la a Helmholz (sp?) resonator, not the resonant frequency of the solid material of the bowl and stand. But both would enter into the equation to some degree. I wouldn't want to hazard a guess as to how much of each!

The Greeks learned to use open bowls and open mouthed jars (Greeks and Romans embedded these in walls of arenas I'm told) as resonators to amplify specific frequencies related to speech. That's what I thought he we referring to and that to which I think much of the descriptions of this product's impact refers to.

Of course, I can be dead wrong here. I'm just advancing a plausible explanation for what might be a very real phenomenon with acoustic impact that is perceivable and perhaps even pleasant.
