Frank Iacone of HiFiAudio Guru on VCS Toolkit
This room tuning kit is a must for anyone wanting to really hear their systems. The differences were enormous and well worth the money.

John Zurek of Positive Feedback on VCS Toolkit – Part 2
Both the Cloud22 bases and the Cloud22 wool balls allow the midrange to shine through like nothing I’ve heard before, and make you want to dance. Gingko has some real champs on their hands here, and I recommend that you audition any or all of the products in this review.

John Zurek of Positive Feedback on VCS Toolkit – Part 1
These days, more than ever, I look for a price-to-performance ratio that makes sense for this economically challenging time, and the ARCHs fit right in with my philosophy […] Using ARCHs designed for components, speakers, and cables allowed my system to sing at a higher level when they were used collectively vs. individually.

John Zurek of Positive Feedback on ARCH
The first thing you notice with the ARCHs is a big improvement to overall transparency and clarity. That alone is worth the price of admission. I also heard an expanded soundstage, improved imaging, incredible separation/layering, and a blacker background.

Glen Wagenknecht of 6moons on ARCH
On a fundamental level where judiciously employed, the Acoustic Resonance Clarifiers could make marked enhancements in the enunciation of information in the critical lower mid through upper octaves of an electronic component or loudspeaker. Such results require patience and come with a proviso.

Further sonic improvements were gained by placing the Mini-ARCHs under my Chord DAVE, sMS-200, tX-USBultra, and BRIX media server. This is quite nice given the form-factor, ease of use, and price of the ARCHs. I was also able to tune my system using various amounts of Mini-ARCHs under my source equipment. This worked especially well for the SOtM sMS-200. Having 8 Mini-ARCHs was a tad bright while using 4 struck a perfect balance. Tuning your system with vibration isolators sounds ridiculous but I think adjustability makes these ARCHs quite attractive.
