DIY Schumann Generator

DIY Schumman generator is inspired by Acoustic Revive RR-77 reviewed by 6moons. Surprisingly, the components to make is simple, cheap and easy to obtain. The case that I using here is a gift from my colleague few years ago. It is used to be a cigarette box and it is made from solid wood.


First things first, put the feet on this box.

It is look better now.

I use single wire about 22 AWG for the antenna.

I double the wire and make a circle starting from the center just like the schematic you can find on the internet.

I using hot glue for attaching this wire until reach at the end. It is about total 12 turn.

All components for this project is all available on my bin including the very popular IC NE555.

Look how it's done. Very simple and beautiful.

I am using 9 volt battery before regulator 7805 then feeding the NE555 to produce the resonator. Normally this battery can withstand up to 3 days full ON until the LED indicator start to flashing telling you that the battery is low.

So how it is effect to the music? Firstly, I put this resonator in the center of my speakers with the same table and same height. It is about 1.2 meter high. In my observation, I guess it makes the background music more quieter & darker. It is can be my subjective feeling after all but the impact is noticeably with this Schumman resonator. Now I can enjoy more music album in a single listening session than before.

  1. Hi, can you tell us how you detect effective magnetic field at7,83 Hz out of the coil? I have a commercial Douk Audio product and except for an oscilloscope measurement of 30 mV sinus on the coil, I cannot detect any magnetic field. Have you used any app to measure ?
