This ad is for 2 new Akiko Mk 3 Tuning
Sticks.
Product Description:
Akiko Universal Tuning Sticks are
passive devices (they don't plug into anything, unlike the other types). The
most common usage is to strap them to speaker cables at the speaker end, but
they're also used on power cables and some are using them on headphone
cables. Sold in pairs.
These products from Akiko Audio are
6Moons Blue Moon Award Winners, Positive Feedback did a fantastic review and
the Stereo Times writers named the Tuning Sticks a Most Wanted Component of
2013.
Akiko Audio products are all based on
one principal, cleaning noise from the ground plane of your system. The cleaner
the ground, the clearer your sound. The product is available in five
different variations. We recommend starting with either an AC or RCA unit, then
adding a pair of the Universal to achieve maximum performance.
The Tuning Stick Mk one was awarded
with the 6Moons Blue Moon award in September of 2013. Here's what the
reviewers had to say:
"By merely plugging in the
100-odd grams of AC tuning shtick, the virtual soundstage widened, individual
instruments moved further apart and Burke pushed his singing chair forward.
When we unplugged the darn stick, the stage shrunk back to its initial size
between the horns. Did we hear this correctly? Was this stuff really that
powerful?"
"Scary? Almost. With the enhanced
dimensions of the music we now also noticed tiny ticks and clicks from the
vinyl's surface giving away that this was still a reproduction. Before the
universal sticks were mounted, these ticks and clicks had been inaudible."
"In all their differences these
two sample albums uncovered the new-found possibilities of our system in full.
It had been a very good system already but now it sat at an even higher
altitude. Three little sticks were all it took to get up there."
"What exactly the workings of
these sticks are is unclear. They seem to be related to the Shakti Stones and
Acoustic Revive RCG-24 grounding enhancer. The only difference between those
and the sticks is that the sticks don't introduce subtle enhancements. They
cause a vast enhancement."
Shipping is set at $30 in US and Canada.
