I'm not interested in the ultra-expensive record clamp, since I'm not into analog, but I am curious about their room-tuning devices and Mpingo discs. A friend of mine said he heard the full complement of room-tuning devices in the Shun Mook room in Vegas some years ago, and that they made a very nice difference in that room. But then he took them to his room and set them up exactly as the Shun Mook guys recommended--and heard NOTHING. I wonder why that would be. Anyway, I'd be curious what people's general opinions are of this stuff. It seems ridiculously expensive for what it is--but, then again, that's not terribly unusual in this hobby.
Follow Ups:
products do what they claim, but I often find that placing them elsewhere where they are recommended often works better. The Shun Mook people like a more diffuse soundstage, and a very lush romantic sound, reminiscent of traditional older tube gear. Again experimentation is of prime importance and you can achieve almost any kind of sound you want.
On their three disc arrangement I find it better to align them vertically at roughly the midrange level of a three way speaker system. It does a great deal to smooth an integrate the drivers.
As for how they work, the wood is a carrier for a piezo electric crystal (I cut one apart). For the small discs you can simulate the effect by placing small quartz crystals on your gear. Try placing them over a TT motor or your spin motor of your CD player.

Hi Stu,Could you kindly enlighten on which part of the speakers for the three discs arrangement.Thanks.
I place them centered between the speakers about the level of the midrange driver. They are vertically aligned and the discs are angled roughly at 45 degrees from line between the speakers, pointing towards the center. Adding a second set stacked on the first adds further improvement. Haven't tried a third set as it got too expensive.

See the link at the bottom for the full story.IMHO, most of what's said derides the cost and efficacy of the products without actually listening to them.
Many of the more serious comments say the products do what they claim, but at a ridiculous cost.
YMMV
