Or do you think it has a genuinely beneficial effect on the sound?







Yes, they're real.

I hear the bass notes are quite substantial.

I tried it with some Creed and it didn't really work. No biggie as I'm not a big fan of Scott Stapp!.It did work well paired with Back In Black, however. Gotta love AC/DC! I wish they'd come in brown Or Black, though. The Truth is that the price is a bit high.. maybe if I had 1 Million laying around, lol. I suppose people would buy them to be unique, but that's a bit of a Contradiction as whiskey is really the 'aqua di joe' if you know what I mean.

Obviously those are not made from actual oak barrels, but I do have music boxes and when I sit them on top of my oak furniture to play, the oak amplifies the sound quite nicely, so by design I think they are probably quite nice.
