Krissy seems so smart and knowledgeable.

Neil Lofgren is Bruce Springsteen lead guitarist.He has album Acoustic Live.
|
Jeff there is an English version , on you tube . The review is exactly the same of my experience.The early version of this chronos optimizer are connected to the USB port. The new version are not to be connected. I don’t know how to link it to this site.
|
Without the Chronos the sound is not as involving and focus. I also think the sound stage is collapsing. The layering also suffer. Vocal is not as good either.palpability is also not there.
|
|
In the beginning I ask myself will the $2500 cable do what this chronos does ? My steer is no. It lower the noise of the system , the layering becomes more holographic, and the vocal is more focus.My wife said the music becomes more involving, according to my wife the music becomes more effortless .When I got home she was a bit disappointed I did not get it.
|
My wife even told me. It will be needed on classical music.
|
|
|
Amtprod I don’t know if you will ever see measurements. Or video ?.For $2500 you are entitled to get more info.
|
Keswitzer if you are asking where it will be connected in the system? You don’t need to connect it to the system , you can put it anywhere inside the room. No power no batteries. You can bring it to your car and place it to the passenger seat or cup holder.They demo guy said you can use it on concerts.
|
I only saw it near the cd player .
|
My only hope if they got distributor here in the US they will tell them it’s overpriced.For the price of $1000 maybe I’ll buy. For $500 I won’t even think about it. I will grab one.
|
Jeff trust me it works but it’s too expensive.I wish they will price it $500.
|
Jack I talked to Kristy from Heartsound very nice person to talk to.Lets see if the Holostage does the same effect like the Chronos.
|
Longplayer, Iam also interested in buying one of the demo piece with discount. Because my wife who is always hard to convinces but not with the Chronos. I heard them Friday back Saturday to play my one cd by Neil Lofgren. Sunday I decided they will not give me discount. But really I like the tweak but not for $2500. I totally agree with you even a good preamp won’t be able to do this tweak does.
|
Let see what this Holostage by Heartsound does. See if the can match the Chronos or even surpass it.$999 much cheaper.They are supposed to be able to equal what Chronos does.
|
Jeff when Chronos are used they produce just about the right holographic sound on the recording, more air, more quiet , less noise floor, more focus on vocal and instrument. It just makes the music sound effortlessl.
|
Bill the Chronos don’t have batteries, nothing to connect, they are like usb stick , they just need to be inside room. In the demonstration they are near the component s.They don’t need power to work.
|
One thing Iam sure is that they lower the noise floor to the point where you can hear clearer and it became effortless to listen to the music.i intentionally brought a cd that is a bit noisy.And to my surprise it did eliminate the noise about 90% . The sound remain natural as well.
|
Jeff I think you need to talk to Krissy from Hearttsound audio. When Iam listening to the guy doing the demo? He said it’s a space, resonance, vibration correction. I think it’s more than that.Krissy might be able to share a glimpse of how they work. She is very smart, plus she is doing tweak same principle as the Chronos.
|
Kennyc the demo music they are playing,you need to have good listening skills to appreciate it. Why I brought my own cd that I am very familiar with. One is Neal Lofgren cd, One is Verdi classical music.
|
Ok like I said Krissy from Haartsound will send me the holostage tweak. Well I received them yesterday. Iam listening to them now.Will update as soon as I can ?
|
Long player if you really like what you heard on the Chronos , Ask Krissy for auditions of the holostage tweak.
|
Longplayer my initial listening, I was in a big surprise? On what they did for 2 hrs listening. I will let my wife to listen to them.
|
Grannyring I will be interested what you think If ever you audition them? I do have high regard on your listening skills and your passion in this hobby.
|
Since there is already thread about this tweak here at Audiogon, titled Holy Holostage. And it’s the same result I have experienced.My simple conclusion is it’s hard for me to listen without them.Thank you all .I think Krissy will get my $999 very soon.
|
I bought the Holostage. To add they even works better on tubes.
|
Ozzy I will try them on my KLH panel see what happen.
|
Ozzy it’s hard to listen without them. My 3 systems all improved. I got the same amazing resukt on all of them. My friend ordered for auditions.my favorite placement so far one on top of my amp 2 on top of the speakers and middle of the room by my coffee table. Focus is well balanced.
