As some here may recall, an old friend and audio confidant died last year
and I only found out through a CL ad. ==>> http://www.audioheritage.org/vbullet...l=1#post385853
so I've cleaned out most of what I picked up of his estate. The ESS's and dual platter Sansui were sure keepers but I've held out the Carver C-9 Sonic Hologram generator, having read both very positive and mildly negative reviews of it.
I had some man cave system maint. to do today, so finally installed it. Easily reversible if not a good fit as it just inserts between the preamp and amp.
result ?? sure is a fuller, wider image. Bass increased (have read that others noticed that too) . HF and detail APPEARS improved. There are detailed instructions on speaker distances/angles, but I just inserted it with speakers in situ. Briefly tried the 2 adjustments, but sounded better not engaged.
Others have reported that it WOW'ed them at first but they found it "phasey" and later removed it. We'll see if that happens here, but FOR NOW it's fun.
