Mea culpa for Uptone Iso Regen USB

Recently I was negotiating to buy a USB cable from a fellow Audiogon member @fsmithjack and he offered in addition to the cable to sell me an Uptone Iso Regen USB with an Uptone linear power supply. I felt a little uncomfortable with the conversation as I was just trying to buy a cable, not a bundle with something else that I hadnt even inquired about. We agreed to go our separate ways, no harm no foul right?

I began reading about the product, skeptically, and became more curious. With the return policy Uptone offers, I thought I would check it out and ordered a new Iso Regen Usb and their new companion 1.2 LPS. Holy moly @fsmithjack was right and I should have listened to him. Single biggest upgrade I recall with my digital front end, instantly upon inserting it into my system!

Long story short, I wanted to publicly acknowledge @fsmithjack as the gentleman that he is, he was just trying to enlighten me and I wasn’t ready to believe the radical improvements he said I would experience. This isn’t a review of the product, this is intended to recognize and thank @fsmithjack for his sage advice, even though I was not very trusting, I now recognize he was just trying to share his experience. Thanks @fsmithjack! He has no affiliation with Uptone, just a fellow Audiogoner that makes this community special. Peace.

I have to say I purchased a 432 evo standard from Dave and at the same time an etheregen and  the queen master clock and upgraded ps along with his better bnc cable from Afterdark. I've had these all connected since day one maybe 6 or 7 months ago. Never tried the server without the other items until Sunday and what a difference the Queen clock made. 
 

I literally couldn't listen to the evo without the Queen clock plugged into the ETheregen.  I was very skeptical all along thinking I could've saved a lot and purchased a twice as expensive server without the clock and Ethergen, I thought it wasn't needed but now I see it is. The difference is night and day I tell you.  I believe that these two items could allow any of us to save on a server and perhaps with a more expensive server the ext clock is even that much better. I wish now I would've bought the best clock from AD!
