Shakti Stones Do they actuall work guys.

How long did it take to get back to normal Cerrot?

Once I put the stone back on the hydra, it snapped right into place. The system was running for a few hours so it took no time at all.

They work great, IF you use them right. But first, they need to be harmonically balanced. You do this by putting the 'family stones' in a vise and tighten down real snug. Then you release the tension. At first, you you will notice some slight discomfort, but upon release you will immediatly noticed a vast improvement! Thus, you have been harmonically balanced! :) the only thing left to do after that is check your warp drive coils, I think they need a little tweaking too.

Cerrot, Could it be better because you took the stone out of you CD player? Can you try take them out one by one and see the differences?

I can take them out one by one. You may have a point that the stone hurt the player. I could take one off my amp and see what happens. I'm off line right now due to a broken cable and waiting for a replacement. I may give it a try and let you know.
