Hi everyone,
Proud new “Gater” here and wanted to share my initial feelings.
I’ve been lucky to have the good fortune to have been able to upgrade my gear in a short period of a few years... the results have been phenomenal.
I wish to say that even with upgrading numerous and various things, and feeling very satisfied with the return on investment, the addition of the gate allows my pieces to really show their capabilities, so much more so, that I can’t say that was even aware of their true potential before. I do believe that my system is extremely musical and satisfying. I know there is better gear out there, and there is lesser gear out there for sure. But I can honestly say, finally, that I’m not interested in the latest and greatest. My system plays music now with such truth, that upgrades aren’t something I dream about. That is freedom.
Now, I’ve read through these pages, and I’ve seen how ugly and personal things can get. Be sure, I have no desire for a back and forth with anyone here, respectfully. I’m just posting my experience with this product. Nothing more, nothing less. I’m here to discuss the gate.
Over the years, I may have come across as over zealous about things I’ve done or got for the system, and while I agree it can be a turn off, especially for those skeptical,(myself included) I must give credit where it is due, and the gate deserves credit for allowing me to enjoy my system to a degree never obtained before. I absolutely understand the enthusiasm for the gate
Over the years, I’ve learned that buying a system based on specs doesn’t lead to a satisfying sound. It leads to bragging rights to a system that may or may not make music. (Woop dee doo). I’ve learned to place dogma aside and trust my ears. I feel too many of us lose out on some amazing musical experiences because we’re in the hobby for the wrong reasons.
I will save the gee whiz comments on how amazing this product has made my system sounds, because you’ve heard them echoed by others already on this thread. We will leave it with a resounding concurrence on my part. This product is the real deal. No I don’t know it’s specs, but I love what it does for my enjoyment of this hobby. Take my opinion and do what you want with it. I just felt like sharing.
