Of course it all depends and the design and existing EMF shielding of each component. I have played with stones on various pieces, easy to test just listen with and without, and I feel they don't make a noticable improvement. As a matter of fact I could detect no real difference in sound. But with any tweak item, different systems may produce different results. My epuipment is all Musical Fidelity SS, Bel Canto Dac1.
Shakti Stone?
My dealer is sending me one to "audition" It will be tried either on my Pass Aleph-3 or Rogue Audio 99 preamp.The 99 has an outboard power supply.The 99 has 4 line-stage tubes and 4 phono tubes.With the outboard power supply with the 99 can there still be a chance it will do its magic or is the Aleph-3 the likely candidate to wear the stone.Has anyone had any big improvements with a Shakti Stone??
