USBe Perfect

Well, I just got my second USBe Perfect. Now I have one on each end of my usb cable from my Hard Drive to my Lumin.

First listen, and best I can describe is there is an additional benefit.

So, if the first one at the hard drive was at about 75% the second one at the Lumin added about another 25%.

Sorry, I misspoke. It was not a 25% jump in overall performance. I was trying to compare the difference between using just one and then adding a second. The second one was perhaps 1/4 of the performance improvement compared to just using one. It is probably a total of 5-10% in overall performance gains. Which is still significant.

Next, I'm going to try them back-to-back rather than at both ends.

ozzy... yes, that's a cool idea! Please post your findings.

I have not been able to get the back-to-back USBe Perfects to work at the hard drive. I was able to get the back-to-back to work at the Lumin end, however. Which seems strange...

To me, (at this point) I believe it sounds better with the USBe Perfect used at both ends of the cable.

BTW, adding a Synergistic tuning (purple) dot on the usb cable at the hard drive is also an improvement.
