1. A system to treat spirits with sound, the system comprising:
a wooden barrel configured to hold the spirits;
at least one speaker, the speaker being configured to play a repeated pattern of sound into the spirits inside the barrel to cause the spirits to move inside the barrel in a first waveform in response to the repeated pattern of sound and a second waveform caused by reflections of the first waveform off the inside of the barrel; and
a playback device configured to control qualities of the repeated pattern of sound to cause the first and second waveforms to amplify each other without inducing vibrations in the barrel that disrupt either of the first or second waveform, the playback device being configured to control a volume of the repeated pattern of sound to control a degree of interaction between the spirits and the barrel.
