Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device?

I have had the qol device in my system for over two weeks and found at best it made very minor changes on some recordings soundstages and placement of players on the stage. I did not find these changes to be a significant improvement compared to when the SCS is put into bypass.

Regarding timbres or tonality I experienced that the SCS at times kinda dried out the overall sound of my system.

Finally, even in bypass mode I did not find this device to be totally transparent, it added some amount of noise and took away some of the purity of my systems overall clarity.

I'm a staff reviewer for hometheaterreview.com and the
auditioning of this piece will be presented as a formal review in the next few months on the website.

Hi Ozzy,

The two speakers I have been reviewing the SCD with are MG-20's on MyeStands that are bi-amped along with a pair of speakers from Lawrence Audio called the Cello. The Cello has turned out to be one of the finest box enclosure speakers that I have ever heard, regardless of price. It is a five driver 3.5 vented design that uses two eight inch cone woofers along with Air Motion Transformer drivers for the midrange and high frequencies along with a ribbon tweeter used as a super tweeter. It is rated from 32Hz to 40 kHz, with the sensitivity (2.83V/1m) 90dB. It retails for $18,000.

Ozzy, I think this device is very recording and system dependent, along with how sensitive the listener is to phase. Since as you know you get a 30 day auditioning period, why not try it and see if it floats your sonic boat, as it did for you, but sunk mine.

Rnwong,

Your experience with the SCS, from your post on 4/10/12, is exactly what I heard in my system. I tried it in two positions, source/preamp-preamp/monoblocks, and it did not make any difference. I'll be submitting a review on the SCS for my website hometheaterreview.com, which will not be very postive towards its performance. Personally, I would not spend the 4K on this device, as it did nothing I find to be an improvement in my system.
