And no, I don’t own and will not buy any of these stones.
Good for you, at least you see the illegal selling hoax going on here?? Maybe he needs another timeout. It sure was peaceful here during the time of his last break. What do you say admin? Or maybe you need time out for promoting this outrageous rock hoax, and turning this place into a "snake oil pit" |

Thanks for posting that link!! Cheers George I missed that one, OMG🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ This is just outrageous what’s claimed!!!!!!!!!!! "SoundAll seem to lower the noise floor, and allow more recording ambience and decay through. They also seem to make the presentation more liquid and natural sounding. However, the different colors seem to influence different frequencies more than others. There is also some overlap between them. Red: Warmth, bloom, and decay Clear: High frequencies, air, space. Good with tube components, not good with metal dome tweeters. Blue: lower Mids and upper mids: Openness, texture, layering, transparency (new) Black: Air, space, texture. This one is my favorite, along with the blue. The two together open up the sound in a refined way."
@Admin please put a Bullitt in it. |

it is tricky to prove a negative..
Unless you bring common sense into it. Cheers George |
phcollie Thanks for the Link George. Upon further study I note that the seller of these items take careful care not to claim they actually work. They use the phrase "These seem to ....." twice, and the phrase "these reach the upper mids".....which of course is a meaningless statement. A rock can not "reach" anything. Legally, if they actually worked, the statement would read "These Do X,Y,Z." not "These Seem to Do X,Y,Z". This keeps them from legal exposure for running a scam. It also keeps them from being shut down by their local regulatory body. It is sad that these types of people do this....imagine some poor guy on fixed income being told,..."just buy more rocks and it will sound amazing."
Yes, just another scam this time with $86 rocks aimed at the gullible, thank god Audiogon saw fit to cull most of the $$$$ snake oil fuse threads now. Hopefully this rock one won’t do too much damage to peoples pockets before it’s removed as well. Cheers George |
I pay out only on the product. But also can give generously to the individual, when singled out. (haven’t you learnt that yet)

Ya snake oilers called me in yet again, 16th time YOU HAVE TO BE "STONE" CRAZY IF YOU THINK A "0.1oz $86" PINK ROCK PLACED ON YOUR AMP IS GOING TO EFFECT THE SOUND😜 |
|
then your mind will convince you they work even if they do absolutely nothing.
Because it cost you money, if it were free you'd say this is **** and throw it away. Cheers George |
Some really seem to believe that, if THEY don’t have an explanation for something, it can’t be true, it must be false or fraudulent. That sound like a Scientology chant LOL think it’s time to move on. Only people in Haiti and Louisiana believe in Voodoo well a few audiophile here do too. Got that right jerry Cheers George |

coralkong And others, why address me directly, I don’t address you to make you do it. Why not put up a technical argument to counter what I and others say about this stuff instead of going personal route? Or better still get the designer/owner of this stuff to post the same musical improvements that his stuff can do here as you lot say it can do. |
He hasn’t a clue … he’s a Dog Chasing Cars ! +2 on that, and it’s more than just cars he chasing. Just look at the dubious amount of products attached to that system, must be 10 of every pieces of each ever made. A how does he tell what’s doing, if everything transforms the system as he says it does. And the lava lamp has me intrigued because it’s so close to interconnects etc , they have a rubbish power supply to light and heat the wax that makes a lot of noise. Cheers George |
All these "snake oil" products need to be eradicated, from forums, where they get free exposure and get massive profits, without posting themselves if you notice, they just let their shillers do it for them. That way there’s no liability back to them for any claims on what they do.
Cheers George

Anyone selling a reputable product will have a full money back guarantee or even a trial period. Please let me know the details. No no no don’t think this way, as if only half are sent back, these shysters, are still making a small fortune. And the chances of you sending them back and not feeling embarrassed about the purchase, you’ll just throw them away instead, and say never again. Cheers George |
|
These snake oil products are making Audiogon a dumping ground for rubbish to sell to the gullible.
Cheers George

you might try the stones in the main circuit box as the power enters from the street. Throw them in the hydro water dam that generates your ac juice at the start. Cheers George |
Some technical explanations please! The only technical info you’ll get on these, is. 😴 Cheers George |
