Hey Miracle Workers, I got a big 1 pound bag of shungite rocks (cost $15). I have been placing them on my amps, cables and such. I do hear a difference, whether that difference is positive I am unsure. It does lift the treble significantly. Lifted treble though can be a sign of increase EMI though, so I am not sure of it so far.
Has anyone tried Elite Shungite vs the regular? Looks like it might be just more compacted/compressed shungite. Being more compressed might hold forms better and polish better. Also since it is compressed more it has 'more' fullerenes as it simply has more mass. So the elite might not be worth the 4x cost it typically has.
Since it is not a crystal, whether it is in powder form or solid pieces, is there a difference in its effect? I would suspect that shape/size of particle might be much less influential in its effects.
Also, I think its important to remember that shungite is essentially coal from another source. Instead of coming from prehistoric plants and animals that have liquified and transformed, shungite comes from another unknown source that is much older, perhaps extraterrestrial. And because if its age (billions of years vs 300 million years), might have absorbed or transformed into more fullerenes than regular coal has had the time to do. But regular coal might actually the same effects as shungite.
