This very inexpensive addition to my MacMini server based audio system has had a profound and positive influence on the sound and my listening experience. Immediately noticeable effects: more tone, more body, more spatial effects and all were improvements in a good way. There is also more detail. I use a Peachtree Nova 125se and it's integrated DAC with expensive Von Schweikert speakers (a holdover from when I spent nutty money on gear). Since the Disruptor and cable together cost a little more than $100 with a guaranteed return policy, you have nothing to lose. I had tried the $50 Audioquest Jitterbug product and it made a barely perceptible change to my sound, worth the money but marginal effect. The disruptor and it's companion usb cable addition was like a substantial component upgrade. And no, I am not in any way affiliated with this company, just wanted to share with other like minded audio people.
I agree the Intona is very good. But to me, the Mutec 3+usb is the very best. I actually have 2 of them in tandem. However, I am using the Itona before the Mutec.
ozzy, curious as you mention you are using two of the Mutec in tandem and then an Intona before the Mutec. Would the three be connected serially? In other words computer>Intona>Mutec>Mutec>audio input usb or digital? I ask because the Mutec is rather expensive and it would seem to me one should be more than sufficient.
Yes,I am using them that way. My source however is a Bryston BDP-2.
The Mutec is very good, but 2 Mutec’s is better than one. That being said, if the first Mutec is a 8 on a one to ten scale.The second Mutec added to first was about another 5.
