Uh oh, the guys are TR are in trouble!!
Seriously though, this probably will work to some extent. Would only make sense. I’m in the camp of TR users who believe it has definite positive effects, it’s just up to the individual if they think it’s worth it. For a brand new guitar I can’t recommend it enough, for a guitar that’s been gigged for a few years, might not make as noticeable a difference.

Yes, although I currently have it on the first guitar of a 5-guitar Hercules rack, so the other four guitars get some indirect vibration too. I thought about expanding that idea to make the "Tonerite: Stand and Shake" model.

Yes, speaker. At a moderate volume it activates the strings and creates vibrations on the top. I don't necessarily believe (nor disbelieve) in the whole process, but what the heck? I'm listening to music anyway...

I meant to make a thread about this awhile ago, but if you're like me and live near a Naval Air base, you can always just leave your guitars outside in the shade and let the constant jet noise break the guitar in
Seriously, I was playing outside once and a jet flew over and I felt actual air being pumped out of the soundhole because it vibrated the top so much. Would be like a high-efficiency, airborne, occasionally-deafening Tonerite

Stupid me, I just play mine.
Seriously though I'm curious about this. Does it make a great guitar sound even better? Has anyone tried it on a guitar they were already satisfied with? Is it only effective on new guitars?

Edit: all my guitars are newer (went through a huge buy/sell phase in 2017/2018), and eight of them have Red Spruce (Adi) tops, which seem to have the best chance of noticing an improvement.

I like to play them too but am impatient to have to play them for years before they fully open up. I'm hoping this works on my new Ovangkol topped guitar.
