"This is a legendary PAIA Stereo Chord Egg from the 1970's. When powered with 12v (e.g. 8 x 1.5v batteries), it generates a rising and falling swell of harmonious chords and notes that will calm your alpha waves and bring peace to your soul. Or, at least, it will sound pretty cool.
I built this from the PAIA kit. It works. And, did I mention it's cool? But, it's time for it to find a new home.
Comes with the board and original instruction booklet (as shown). Book was slightly annotated and marked as I followed the build procedure.
These are extremely rare. And, ones that work are even more rare.
Note: If you purchase this, you should be comfortable putting together and connecting a power supply for this (e.g. connecting it to a battery holder with the correct polarity) and handling a circuit board (static can damage some of the chips). Or, at least, you should have a friend who is."
You can find a few in the archives including some demos here.
