Interested to know your thoughts it takes a bit of while to get to it full potential but you should hear results quite quickly

Life has got busy really quickly, so my listening time has completely disappeared.
Five weeks into the school year and stress is high, with much less free time.
Had a few sessions while the SEG was running in.
Initially noticed the music was more delicate, sharper, the base was a little heavier (more weight).
The vocal decay was more evident.
If music was a bucket, the depth of the bucket was extended.
My last session (while doing some work)...
Smoother
Sheer weight of the base.
Better use of the ATC SCM19v2 speakers.
Layers of music are more discernible.
Quieter.
A couple of songs that were previously a little hard to listen to:
David Bowie 'Black Star'
David Byrne 'We Dance Like This'
I'm really enjoying it.
At times a little bright.
Not sure if that will remain.
Hope not.

Glad it working out Brett and hope you get more time to listen
The seg is not bright even with the mods it could be settling in but also could be showing a fault somewhere else in your system Check to see if any cables are touching I have to be very careful with that in my system

I agree with John, the SEG is not inherently bright and gives a good performance top to bottom. A slight tilt could be remedied with cable choice but I would give it a good length of burn-in time, especially for the clock that takes time to settle down.

Bybee Tech products are a nice tweak that leaves you scratching your head as to how they work.
I have a large Purifier that I soldered in directly after the IEC inlet inside my power regenerator in series with the live wire.
I also have a QSE which is a wooden block which I believe contains some crystal, a coil and a battery to energise it.
This unit can be placed on equipment, power cables or around the room or on your speakers.
The main things I noticed improved were bass clarity and tightness plus the soundstage grew. I might get the new version of the QSE and try that placed in my fuse board.

I think in the interests of following up on things I've tried, the Schumann resonator is not really worth bothering with. I *think* I can detect a change but then I turned it off last night and couldn't really tell the difference.
Ah well, it was a cheap experiment!

Used to fit them O.E. in certain applications on Wadia's they worked well, one the earth line they can help.
The smaller gold ones were ok for small signal work, but the cost was high given the effect /cost ratio imho.
They are other ways of cracking the protecting the signal integrity route.
I did try the uber speaker bybee pack once, humm again more of a sideways move than an out right upturn.
In the right place they can be beneficial I would concur, after all copper pairs are just as important as 1 million taps lol

I also *thought* I heard an improvement. Even bought a more expensive version. But, hard to prove there is any change. At least it has a pretty blue light. |

Had a listen to my system with the SGS-1 attached to the ground post of my amp.
Smooth is one way of describing it.
Can I call it organic?
Does that actually mean anything?
At the very least, my system has lost its digital sound over the last few months, with the grounding box moving it even further from that.

Has anyone experience with a negative ion generator?
Health-wise, and/or sonic benefits?

Do you mean those air freshener ioniser things?

I have a
Mountain Breeze Ioniser.
Air blown version
No longer made. Glad to say it still works and still used, usually when I am out of the room.
Used to stop headaches at work Don't know about the sound benefits.
Reminds me I have some other small ones.
Must be doing something as they gathered a black stain around them from crap in the air if not cleaned every so often
The filter on this builds up fine dust I'm glad to say I'm not breathing

Found a couple of places that used them.
Along with the Shakti Hallograph and room treatments

I bought three of these for the house to help with my late wife's breathing, and they definitely did help. |

Where did you buy it, Paul? I used to have one, long discarded. I'd like to set one up again.

This seems to be the replacement model, but they're cheaper on eBay. [EDIT] I've just discovered THIS on Amazon, which looks to be a "version" of the VonHaus item |
