ADD POWR Sorcer X4, Apprentice and Symphony I/O

After testing and using for six months the SORCER X4, APPRENTICE and several SYMPHONY I/O’s for video and music. I‘m amazed at the improvements to my system. My Sony 65” television has the best picture I have ever watched with these units. In my own opinion these products are a necessity for the best possible home theater system. Not only does the video experience improve, but the sound improves too. It lowers the noise floor, adds detail and depth to the listening experience. Do yourself a favor and talk with Bill about this technology. He’s a great guy to explain how this magic works.

I already own a Symphony I/O unit, and the 8 outlet Powr Bar for my modem, EtherRegen and other etc. equipment.

So hopefully these additionally units will also help with my video system.

@ ozzy  I purchased a second Vivid for HDMI on the Firestick out to the LG. Together with the coax antenna feed I am very impressed with the level of realism they provide!

I did purchase most of those items also Ozzy! Be on the lookout for Bill’s new Symphony I/O Deluxe unit coming out! It incorporates every type of digital input for Audio and Video all in one unit. It’s a must have for any Audio or Video home entertainment system! 
Those Vivids will work great with your other components or even alone! You’re going to be shocked at the improvement! Much better than buying any expensive high end cable. People are using them on their projectors and finding a nice improvement.

So, I received the 3 units and can provide these comments.

The Coaxial unit does not work with my Satellite (Dish) (no signal) but does work with my outside antenna.

One of the HDMI units worked ok with my Satellite HDMI connection but not with my Oppo 205 HDMI connection. (No signal)

Where it works, it is impressive, but I am disappointed in its short comings. Bill from ADD POWR is aware and before I send the units back for refund, I am giving him a chance to rectify if possible. Maybe I will wait a week.

Disappointed also in the fact that he wants me to pay for return shipping. Not much money I guess but I already paid for the units shipping cost to me.

Ozzy did you discuss with Bill your application and what you were going to use these units on? The coax unit will not communicate directly with your satellite dish. It was never designed to do so! But from an OTA antenna or Cable box it works wonderful. With the HDMI unit your Oppo is now older technology and the cable in the vivid will pass the current cable spec’s for the newer tv demands. Finding a cable that will work with the old and the new is a nightmare. Why would you be disappointed in Bill because you need to pay return shipping when he gave you a major discount on your initial purchase! Bill will do everything in is power to make you happy and design a custom unit just for your situation.
