Equalizer in a Hi Fi system

I have heard the BACCH. still traveling though and will give full report when I get home this evening 😊

I am going to be brief, because I’m tired. But the BACCH preamp is the real deal. It didn’t envelope with regular records as much as I thought it would. But it was something else with binaural Chesky recordings of voices and various sounds. However those recordings were impressive in their panning and sound field anyway even without the BACCH in circuit. For regular music it did a couple of things. It widened considerably the soundstage with the beginnings of a wrap around effect, but never really got behind you. Was nonetheless the less impressive and easily noticeable in vs out. It also seemed to open the music and the dynamics.  Kind of took a veil off to make everything sound better. This was a smaller change but still easily noticeable. Can I live without BACCH? Yes, because while it does things differently I get equal amounts of improvement/fun from my studio grade analog EQ. If I didn’t have that I’d probably be buying a BACCH preamp. Mine is a lot easier to use and a lot cheaper though at 2700 dollars 😊

Nonetheless impressive, sorry. Typo 

Thanks...

Very honest review and i believe you...

By the way i understand you , because i enjoy already a stunning soundfield with spatial qualities  to some relative level  as described by BACCH reviewers... ( my embeddings controls works well for me + modified speakers+mechanical crosstalk limitation)

But i want to buy the BACCH  to really achieve it to a really complete level...

But as you i can wait...😊

You review confirm my reading studies of it : this is the real deal...

Pink Floyd Money was one of the BACCH highlights. I’m listening to it now on my loudspeaker system, of course with Charter Oak PEQ1 analog EQ. The guitar l solo in the middle. I closed my eyes and the guitar is emanating from 2 feet left of my left speaker. EQ off and it’s more veiled and 1 foot left of my left speaker. AND I’m tone shaping bass and treble to my heart’s desire. I add more treble than usual to this album. It’s slightly dark. Yes, I prefer my setup to the BACCH any day. But…what if I had both?…
