Listening to Bob Dylan's Royal Albert Hall vinyl it sounded like the 3D was smoother, with less vocal sibilance.

That Classic Records bob Dylan bootleg series reissue tends toward the sibilant side, so the 3D armwand does not remove it completely. It was just slightly more pleasant than the metal 10.5. Also this was on a dealer's setup, not my own.
