Just wondering if any one has notices yet.

You can hear these things in action this weekend at TAVES 2017.

I know we are way too slow on update the home web. Eventually we will get there.

It goes between source and pre-amp?

Never mind, question answered. Iâ€™m intrigued by this product. Normally I avoid putting extra components in the signal chain, but this may prove an exception.

Yes, it can goes between source and pre-amp. It also can go between preamp and power amp. If it is placed between preamp and power amp, then all source components will benefit from it. If someone is using an integrated amp, it can go between tape/processor loop. Then it will have effect on all source components. If there is no tape loop nor processor loop, then between source and integrated amp input is the only choice.

Sounds like good value!

I have a dual mono integrated amp with a tape loop, which means there are 'left' and 'right' in and out connections. Could you explain to an electronical dufus how to plug a simulator into this set up?
Do I need two single-ended, one for 'left' and 'right'?
