BBE Sonic Maximizer

Hello members.

I'm new here, and this is my first post.

I'm intimidated to even ask this question, due to the anticipated response.

Basically I have a mid/low-end system.

I'm running a pair of KT-88 /12ax7 mono-blocks, with either Ohm Walsh speakers, or vintage epicure speakers.

Recently a friend of mine brought over a BBE Sonic maximiser, and asked me to try it out. I think it sounded great. I just bought one for myself. I'm really enjoying this little processor.

Has anyone else here tried one of these out? If so, was it a positive or negative experience for you?

I recently read a review, that it’s like taking the blanket off your speakers, I agree with this statement.

At first I was wondering if it just brightened things up, but I don’t think that’s the case. My soundstage seemed to be un-touched.

Is my perceived success with this item due to the fact that I'm under-powering my ohms with my low powered mono's, or am I on to something?
