I've always used budget conditioners in the past. But, I recently borrowed the PS Audio 500 from a local dealer and was very impressed! The 500's ability to enhance the highs and lows was excellent. However, it seemed to be lacking in the midrange--voices were not enhanced along with the rest of the spectrum. I was breaking in cables too, so this may of had something to do with it. Or, this may be a problem unique to PS Audio gear. Well, whatever the case, from what I've read here on Audiogon and from emailing WarrenH and the dealer he recommends, it seems the Audio Magic stuff is far superior to PS Audio. And, the new Matrix stealth -I've been told-is nearly 30% better than the original stealth and digital stealth. Unfortunately, I am unable to audition the Audio Magic gear, but alas will take the plunge and pick up the Matrix as soon as I can afford it!
