I'd tend to be sceptical of such things, but unless I actually had personal experience of them how could I say for sure ?
That's what keeping an open mind means, isn't it ?

Putting your wooden bookcase in the corner would do the same job. The different size books will create a natural and uneven / wavy surface to break up reflections. Natural furnishings and furniture in the right places is all that is needed.
The rip-off / slurp is inventing a specialist £1500 device to solve a problem that can be fixed for free.
"Activated panels generate a musically complimentary reflective energy that transforms your listening room by overshadowing typical room distortions which muddy the bass, overbrighten the presentation and blur the soundstage."
The above sentence should be enough to deter any sane individual.

Levels of credibility, two sets of wiggly cricket stumps set in the air costing $1500 each, look at the other stuff as well. You want to be a victim then you carry on, the rest of us will rightly take the piss.

An open mind is not an empty mind...

Do any of you support product like this. Then you support the damage to our industry / hobby done by this nonsense. So I say my farts make the music better and bottle it, are you going to buy it - same level of stoooopidity. There is the possible and the impossible, and an open mind has nothing to do with that.
Anyone who buys these wiggly cricket stumps has to have an empty head. I have been at this lark for over 50 years and FOR CERTAIN there is nothing 3 wiggly cricket stumps can do to music to justify $1.5 let alone $1.5k.
Ludicrous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and anyone supporting insults to our intelligence like this should look for other places to be as here they will just create irritation. TAS seem to be the best place, MCRU almost certainly has them on order and the Vicar will be the first victim.

When I was a baby hi-fi enthusiast, the few accessories I came across didn't cost a King's ransom and did actually
do something. Bib Groove-Kleens, Watts Dust Bugs, cassette tape head demagnetisers, Zerostat pistols for example.
What happened?

Doc,
T-shirts will be ready next week.
"Those who can do, those who can't FOO"
With a nice M.C Escher alike design that transitions from electronic symbols to a pile of unicorn poop.

Will the upgrade option still apply with the bottled farts and will I need to open the window wider?
