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.
