Little Tweak, Big Gain




This Voodoo called Magician.
The Magician improves sound quality from your system – Amp, CD player, Turn table and loudspeakers

How to use?
The Magician is simple in use by placing one under each foot of all apparatus

Basic Set-up
A basic set up for The Magician is to use one under each speaker and one under
Both your primary signal source and your amp.

How Many you need?
Though it is highly recommendable to use The Magician on all parts of your set up –and under each foot. If two products are on top of each other, The Magician should be placed underneath the lower product only.

Installation
Place the Magician with the gold plated side towards the floor/shelf, as to ensure
electrical contact to the surface. For electronic equipment place The Magician where the mains input is located first. For loudspeakers choose the inner placement to have more focus in soundstage, and outer placement to open up soundstage. If you place more than the effect increases for each added Magician.

Voodoo
If you by this mean everything that is not well documented through measurements, then this is certainly voodoo. On the other hand then voodoo also applies to most other disciplines within hifi.
The Turntable
The recent test done on my system was to place under one of the four stands on my Linn Sondek LP12. And the theory is that the tiny vibration will be absorbed by the Rubber on top of the magician on one of the supporting stand of the turntable. The Rubber should be adjusted such that they are no hard compressed! I used only Two magicians only. The Rest three stands were solid swiss wood block supplied by Ayre!

Improvement
The Magician and the rubber pad combination provides a more dynamic, open and harmonic soundstage with more details and space between voices and instruments! I do not have to upgrade my system with this small trick!

As My friend Meng Ee said: little tweak big gain!
The Rubber pad was supplied free by Meng Ee who bought from Holfi, Magicians were obtained from Sunny Of Wisma Audio in Penang! The total cost is around USD100.00!

Hi Meng,
It worked, thanks!
The bass is more organized, tighter and more intensity for about 3 dbs! Bravo!!
