[RF Air]

I see nothing en-Tice-ing about this devise. I've seen better made cigar boxes. Instead of some kind of goop poured and hardened around the wires inside, if they put a dozen decent cigars in there it may be worth $100.

Just keep repeating: “…your audio gear already has industrial strength filtering….” Or put it on a coffee cup or hoodie.

@amirm: would be fun to do impedance measurement of this thing.. I saw in an other discussion that someone claims in the box is only coiled wire and nothing more!

This is the type of garbage that drove me out of the “High End Audio” product development industry.

If you want a chuckle (or a gag reflex):

Stein Music Harmonizer System - The Absolute Sound

Stein Music Harmonizer System -

www.theabsolutesound.com

Though its inventor Holger Stein tried to explain how his small, shelf- or stand-mounted, black or white plastic boxes (labeled H2a and H2b) and wall-mounted “magic stones” work—something to do with changing the density of the air molecules in your room—I neither fully understood his explanation nor believed it. And yet, as has so often been the case in the past with other mystery-meat room treatments, when Stein set up the Harmonizer System in my digs, it somehow changed the soundfield in many of the ways he claimed it would, adding more air and space to the soundstage, smoothness to timbres, and bloom and dimensionality to images, while also just generally better disappearing my loudspeakers.

It's as if these people are religiously opposed to acknowledging the concept of expectation bias. But we know the truth, they're not, they're just financially strongly indisposed to do so.

This device is a cynical, unashamed grab for cash

If at least the box was larger, one could make a bird feeder out of it

[PuX]

so it has absolutely nothing inside the box besides the wire?

amazing scam.

Second thought - make it useful, as a coffin: it only needs an inscription: R.I.P. audiophile illusions.

 

[Mnyb]

If one puts the coil very close to some badly design phonostage, maybe it does something

The Tice Clock

Every audiophile worth his salt had one, or at least an original Radio Shack one because a lot of guys swore it “worked just as well.”

But, but, but it's a DIGITAL clock! How could that possibly be good for sound?

 

[AudioSceptic]

wait, they took a clock, made some voodo, and sold it as an audio product? lol
than again, this box here is a wire in a box....not much less ridiculous under the hood.

Look at what popped on my Google today:

Best AC conditioner I saw so far. But definitely required a new warm-up for like 200-300 hrs to show full potential, it's not right to test it "cold".
I hope that will be fixed in next reviews of such products

Amirm, if you check on the back of the box you’ll find an arrow indicating which way up the box is meant to be. I suspect you had it wrong standing up like that. you should lie it down and retest. I think you’ll be amazed.
