Hemi-Sync Scam Rating: 5 “snake oils” out of 5
What We Recommend Instead:
If you’re looking for a great site for binaural beats, you can’t beat The Unexplainable Store. With a much wider selection and higher quality binaurals, as well as isochronic tonics, there’s absolutely no reason to go anywhere else. Free samples are available, and the staff is friendly.
Oh – and it won’t set you back hundreds of dollars like Hemi-Sync.

Our Unbiased Hemi-Sync Review. Is Hemi-Sync A Scam?
“Can These CDs Make You Meditate Like A Monk?”
Here is a product we really wanted to work.
At Scam Bust, we’ve reviewed a lot of different products in the “binaural beats” niche.
“What are binaural beats,” you ask?
Binaural beats are auditory tones that affect the state of your brainwaves.
There is sound scientific evidence that simply listening to binaural beats on headphones causes changes in the human brain.
But with this evidence, a lot of junk has come into the market.
Hemi-Sync, we hoped, would be different.
And wow – did it promise a lot.
Instant Zen-Like Bliss?
Hemi-Sync was made by the Interstate Industries Inc., brainchild of Robert Allan Monroe, who is selling their binaural beats program for hundreds of dollars.
Hemi-Sync claims that it can cause out-of-body experiences.
And not only that. Results are supposed to come instantly.
This is the first red flag that it’s a rip-off, not a legitimate product.
In fact, binaural beats of different frequencies have different effects, altering the brainwave state of the listener in unique ways. One binaural beat sequence will make you more relaxed, the other more attentive.
Think of binaural beats as rudimentary tools to slow down and speed up brain activity.
If Hemi-Sync really lived up to its claims, it would truly be something life-changing and unique with binaural beat technology. It would be the most optimal, most effective binaural program ever made.
If true, this would be a revolutionary product, something of significant scientific and spiritual value.
Does it live up to its wild claims?
We Tried It.
My experiment with Hemi-Sync went as follows.
- I would listen to the program 30 minutes a day for 4 weeks.
- I would write down how we felt before, during, and after.
- I would also listen to “stock” binaural beats to test their effect.
Two other members of Scam Bust decided to take part as well while I was in the middle of testing.
Between the three of us, we made a small but unbiased test group ready to have our lives changed.
We were vigilant, committed, and, headphones ready, prepared to have our minds blown.
We wanted Hemi-Sync to be awesome.
The Result?
Thank God for money-back guarantees.
The most disappointing thing was that Hemi-Sync did nothing.
No one in our test group experienced anything.
And although we did feel relaxed, each of us attributed it to the fact that we were meditating, not the fact that we were using Hemi-Sync.
Our stock binaural beats were much more effective in changing our mood and mental state.
Not only was Hemi-Sync misleading, it was totally ineffective.
We believe its marginal success with others has a lot to do with the placebo effect.
It’s Expensive.
It’s $179, plus shipping and handling.
Yikes.
There are much, much better options. Get a real set of binaurals and experience something that actually will change how you think and feel. Don’t waste your money on this garbage.
