Musical Fidelity X-10 Tube Buffer Stage

Could this actually:

"add the warmth and musicality you crave" for only $399.00?

Or is it just another quirky, overhyped piece of UK voodoo gear?

I have to admit this caught my eye on amusicdirect.com as I still try to tame the high end of my SCD-1, but a recommendation would sure make me feel a bit better before placing the order.

Has anyone tried it? Or any thoughts?

Cwlondon,
I bet you can patch it at the pre main output for the best results.

Technically speaking it's a dual triode set-up in differential connection for each channel making it two dual triodes.
A differential connection is a stage with 100% feedback.
This device simply makes an output more linear in any output you use.
Depending on linearity of the output of the source device this unit will or will not bring a substantial difference.
