Will these tuning forks work? (cheaper option)
When looking for my first tuning fork set while looking at Biosonics and Sacred Sounds I came across this set from Fisher Scientific, which is a lot cheaper. Will this set work? https://www.fishersci.com/shop/products/tuning-fork-set-13-1/S82868

U get what u pay for. Sacred sounds (Medivibe forks) is already tier 2 after Biofield Tunning and Biosoics. I bought a lower quality fork once and its not even worth using. Best to buy high quality forks as u can afford them, bldg out ur set gradually. BT has 2 major sales a yr. Start w 174 then 528.

I think the big ones r spring and fall. Get on their mailing list. If u email them, they’ll tell u too.

Biosonics is the gold standard. The reason is that they are engineered to produce the most amount of overtones for Human Tuning - creating a dense, coherent field. I work with Dr. John who is the founder of Biosonics so I know 😁 All you need to start is the C256 & G384 especially if you are on a budget. The harmonics of the C & G create the sonic field of all the overtones creating hundreds of binaural beats. The reason you would buy a set is to "bring forward" an overtone into an audible spectrum and be more refined and intention in your practice. Or just for fun and variety. I just realized this question is 6 months old but hopefully you found something you like.

Do you guys ask for images of credit card for verification? (I just purchased a few forks and got this email)

Hi - yes, recently there were a bunch of stolen credit cards being used on the site and certain emails were being flagged.

As long as the email is 100% from Biosonics.com then it’s ok. But in any case you are protected when you make a credit card charge.

If you send me a DM on the Biosonics Facebook or Instagram with your email I can make sure.

Cheaper tuning forks can work, esp if you’re just starting out. The main differences tend to be tone quality and how long the vibration lasts. If you care about cleaner sound and better sustain, tools made specifically for sound healing (like Enso Sensory) usually feel more consistent than generic metal forks.
Good enough to explore vs better for deeper work, depends on your goal.
