Know anything about the BSG Technologies QOL?

Douglas, i said ULTRA hifi.... say, $80k+ systems. If that is what you consider standard hifi, then you may have all the money and equipment you need already and the qol may or may not be for you.

But even in these ultra hifi systems, I hear an improvement so I think that says alot.

You should have a listen for yourself and see if that changes your mind. I have always beed a signal purist myself but after hearing the product, my thoughts about interjecting another component in the signal path changed 180°.

I don't think BSG is going to give anyone their secret sauce just yet so do yourself a favor and just have a listen....it just may put a smile on your face.

Feel free to call me as well....I am always available for friendly and optimistic conversation.

Setonaudio, thank you for your cordial responses.

So I've been googling around what is available and how BSG Technology hopes to market this product and the underlying technology (all very cool stuff!).

Here's a question... while it is stated that it is not processing the musical signal, it clearly must be doing something between Qol input and Qol output. Is it possible to record the output of the Qol and then play it back without Qol in the system with similar results? I guess what I'm asking is if it can actually be used to 'remaster' recordings for playback on non-Qol systems (car, smartphones, bedroom system, etc...).

And if that is possible, what happens if/when it's processed multiple times (i.e. play back such a recording thru the Qol again?)

I'd jump at a chance to hear a Qol in action, but to the best of my knowledge, no one in my area (NC) has one and I'm not quite ready to write a $4k check. But extremely curious I am!

This piece of equipment certainly has piqued my interest. I have a very resolving, highly musical, clean sounding system with great detail and imaging:

Canary monoblock tube amps 140 wpc, Canary monoblock tube pre-amps, Magnepan 1.7 speakers, Zentara speaker cable, Zentara IC and Jw Audio cryo IC, Tritium tiphazer ICs, dcs delius DAC (totally rebuilt by Doug Jessie at Asi_Teknology, Empirical Audio Design Off-Ramp, iMac computer with Puresound overlaying itunes, and a cheap chinese digital player (QLsonic) feeding directly into my dac (sounds unvelievably good). My system sounds staggeringly good.

However, I have audiophile disease and constantly wish to improve the sound of my system. The BSG device description seems to have the POTENTIAL to be a game-changer. I agree the price is steep and the price may just keep me from trying this high potential device. The million dollar question - is this device worth 4K of mulah???????? Understanding precisely how it works is not overly important. Many things work great in my field (medicine) yet we don't know fully the mechanism(s) by which they do their magic......

Interesting discussion and observations here:
