Personal Comments:
The Sirius Mind Machine was formerly known as the Orion Brainwave Synchronizer. The manufacturer designed a new case and added white LED lightframes, then changed the name. Now normally I would slam a 'repackaged' product, but with the Sirius, this is not the case.
First, the Orion Brainmachine contained some great built-in light and sound sessions, pick one, press the start button and off you go. It is about as simple as they come. And thankfully the manufacturer understood the effectiveness of his sessions and decided to keep them. A definite plus!
Also, take a look around the internet and see for yourself how if you want white LED lightframes, you have to pay more than 'standard' red or green lightframes. With the Sirius, white LED lightframes are the standard...they are included with the Sirius. I've been asking myself why a basic system like this Sirius comes with white LED lightframes as standard, when all the other manufacturer's charge more to include them. That doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. But I'm not complaining as the Sirius, with these little improvements and the manufacturer's emphasis on giving my customers the best for less has enabled my company to sell these like no other system.
Why spend more when you can get everything you need at such a low price: highly effective sessions, a great looking unit and white LED lightframes for under $130? That's a hugh plus, and I thank the manufacturer for having the insight to care about my customer's needs rather than concerning himself with making a few extra bucks. You, the customer, benefit from purchasing this system, designed to last you a lifetime. But that's just my opinion, to learn what the manufacturer has to say about the Sirius, read on...
The new Sirius™ is the best value for money of any light/sound system on the market today. It includes a number of features normally found in machines costing much more.
Key features of the SIRIUS system:
· 21 programs for relaxation, learning, increased energy, visualization, sports performance, and more.
· AudioStrobe® decode circuitry. This patented technology encodes inaudible control signals within compact disc audio tracks. These signals directly trigger and control the Sirius lights, resulting in perfectly synchronized audio-visual experiences. Take advantage of a library of dozens of available titles, and take a mind-expanding voyage without leaving home.
· Unique random session creates a different session every time it runs.
· Manual control of pulse rate in tenths of a Hertz, from 0.1 to 40.0. Use this to create precise stimulation protocols for your personal exploration and special applications.
· ColorPulse™ decode circuit converts rhythmic sounds (the “beat”) from your cassette/CD/MP3 player into pulses of light. Turn any source into a synchronized light show!
· AudioPulse™ decoder and built-in microphone converts any ambient sound into a lightshow.
Your SIRIUS package includes:
· Stylish, compact control console with built-in folding stand
· Stereo headphones
· NEW PureWhite™ white-light LiteFrames™, for enhanced visuals
· Manual
· Carry case
· AudioStrobe sampler CD
· Stereo patch cord
Note: System requires 3 x AA alkaline batteries, not included.

Accessories:
Your light and sound system comes complete. Lightframes are included.
The lightframes included with your mind machine are: White LED lightframes (CP polarity).
For those of you who would enjoy adding variety to your mind machine experience, we suggest the following accessories to compliment your Sirius system. Please refer to our "Accessories" section for a complete description of each item and for ordering. {When placing an order for extra lightframes, please specify which light and sound system you will be using to ensure we know which polarity - Common Ground or Common Power - lightframe(s) to send}.
"Also, you can transform your Sirius system into a 2 - user system by adding two (2) stereo "Y" splitters (available for around $5 each at any electronics store) and connecting each to the lightframe port and audio port of your light and sound system. Then simply connect the two lightframes and two headphones to the respective "Y" end of each splitter. This is a cost-effective way for two people to simultaneously experience the same light and sound session and is an excellent method for being on the same 'wavelength', i.e., being in the same state of mind." - Michael Landgraf / Publisher, AVS Journal

"A light and sound machine is a brainwave entrainment tool. The method by which this
entrainment occurs is known as the Frequency Following Response (FFR). Through
the use of audio (headphones) & visual (eye frames with LEDs) stimulation,
listeners are gently guided into specific brainwave states. Each audio beat and
pulse is a specific frequency. Our minds "think" in terms of frequency.
Brainwaves change frequencies based on neural activity within the brain, be it
by hearing, touch, smell, vision and/or taste. These senses respond to activity
from the environment and transmits that information to the brain via electrical
signals. Hearing + vision are considered the favorable senses for affecting
brainwaves safely. By presenting these beats & pulses to the brain, within a few
minutes, the brain begins to mimic or follow the same frequencies as the stimuli
(the beats and pulses). This process is referred to as entrainment. In essence,
these instruments speak to the
