Steinmusic's H2 Harmonizer

The H2 Harmonizer (H2 hereafter) consists of two cubes about 6" square. Each is assigned a designation, H2A and H2B, located on the underside. If you're the obsessive-compulsive type, you can purchase two H2As if necessary, but only a single H2B is required. The rear of the unit accepts power from a 12-volt wall-wart or a battery and has a light switch and an intensity adjustment knob. The light switch is useful to anyone who chooses to use the 9-volt battery option and wants to prolong its lifespan by disabling the LED on the front of the unit. There is no on/off switch.

But what about the H2 Harmonizer combined with the Magic Stones?

In a word, ASTONISHING! I've a single H2B and two H2As (set at an Intensity level of 11 o'clock as recommended) and ten Magic Stones. And it took me all of 30 seconds to detect something unusually sweet about the top end. And there's a much more obvious sense of bloom around instruments as well. I haven't changed any of my electronic components upstairs in years and am so satisfied with their sonic performance I don't plan to, yet this stable environment began to sound very unfamiliar - and incredibly for the better. High frequency decay and shimmer to instruments like cymbals and strings sounded freer, faster and clearer - unlike anything I've heard before in this room. Experimenting with the Intensity knob to 12 o'clock exaggerated the effect and thus destroyed the illusion of real instruments playing in front of me. Returning back to the recommended 11 o'clock position snapped everything back into focus and once again the top-end turned ultra-liquid. In no time, I found myself once again scratching my head in amazement.

I don't want to delve too deeply into comparisons, but I will say here for the record that I've not heard anything passively affect a room like the H2. If there's such a thing as a de-pressure device, then that is what it sounds like to me. The H2, in my opinion, is nothing short of breathtaking. There will be more discussion of this innovative product in the not too distant future. My impressions are solid, they're still early as I've had the unit for less than a month. As time and settle-time continues, I hope to report more on what differences were observed, if any.

The Steinmusic H2 Harmonizers and Magic Stones have changed my idea of what is sonically possible in the here and now. Their impact is powerful enough to rival the Bybee Super Effect Speaker Bullets, Frank Tchang's Acoustic Resonators, and Shakti Hallographs.

Steinmusic Magic Stones

Steinmusic Magic Stones are 1 1/2" triangular shaped polycarbonate “stones” designed to be used in conjunction with the H2 Harmonizer and purporting to intensify its effectiveness. They are ideally located at about 5-feet off the floor on the wall between your loudspeakers; behind your listening seat; on the ceiling (if possible, between your listening seat and the loudspeakers); on the edges of the loudspeakers - above the tweeters - and lastly, in the corners of your room.
