Know anything about the BSG Technologies QOL?


Hi there, I just saw a local dealer advertising this on craigslist, They wont tell you anything about it except it works, it half sounds like snake oil and half sounds like it could be something.

They claim it is all analog and retrieves inner detail and has the "WOW FACTOR".

My guess after talking to the guy is is might be disgned around smoothing out microphone curves maybe? or sending out a ton of above 20KHZ info to do some pshycho acoustic/room type thing?

I'm just tripped out they wont tell you anything except, well set it up, if you like it awesome if not dont buy it.

I am genuinely intrigued to see if its truly real and if anyone has expreience. It would be nice to save a long drive to hear something or have something to look forward to on the drive.

Ozzy, forgot to say I have a 1amp Supreme fuse I will exchange for the one with unit. I will do a before and after and will report if any or much diference
213cobra,Phil, My comments about the Zu Cable were to show that the Zu owner has HIS OPINION of the Qol unit, and I'm also sure he thinks his Variel and Ibis cables are one of the best cables.
But, in MY OPINION they were bested by my inexpensive DIY cables big time.
Again, different tastes, systems, and ears.

Don't pay attention to the so-called experts. Quite frankly I and others posting about the Qol unit are only sharing our experience. The Qol really needs to be heard in YOUR system,

Marc777 I agree with you about the burn(break) in. I think the unit is smoothing out ever so nicely. I have the original gold HIFI tuning fuse in mine. I would be interested in how the Supreme works.
Ozzy, you are correct. It has to be heard in the system you know best. All of us know that swapping out or adding components is really the manipulation of checks and balances. I would like to hear more about designer fuses: I have hi fi tuning fuses in just about all my components with good results. I still have the original fuse in the Qol. Something else: I have rear channels in my setup (they are 24 ft. behind the listener). The way I set up the Qol is to feed my rear channel decoder (SDP1 made by Audio Research) with the second output of the Qol. I have never seen the ambient channels blend into the room in this way. I mentioned this setup to Larry Kay et al., and they had not tried it.
Preale, Wow, I have to try that. Right now I am using the second output for my 2 JL Audio powered subs.
But I will say this,I watched the movie "The Thing 2011" in stereo using my 2 channel rig and there was so much detail and wallop to the movie it was quite impressive. The Qol probaly should have been a multichannel device. Probably in version 2.0
My advice: don't waste the output on the sub, since directionality is so little in low frequencies. I am running my sub directly out of the preamp. I think that you are correct is stating that the Qol should have been a multichannel device. Remember, the volume level on the rear channels will have to be bigger for balance. You will see that the info coming out of the surround channels is quite different and much more realistic.
