ADD POWR Sorcer X4, Apprentice and Symphony I/O


After testing and using for six months the SORCER X4, APPRENTICE and several SYMPHONY I/O’s for video and music. I‘m amazed at the improvements to my system. My Sony 65” television has the best picture I have ever watched with these units. In my own opinion these products are a necessity for the best possible home theater system. Not only does the video experience improve, but the sound improves too. It lowers the noise floor, adds detail and depth to the listening experience. Do yourself a favor and talk with Bill about this technology. He’s a great guy to explain how this magic works.

@ozzy  The Vivid cannot yet handle satellite dish GiHz frequencies. This presents a challenge which I believe can be addressed successfully. Vivid can boost signals in the video range whether they be composite or component video. There may be an issue with the Oppo unit as the Vivid internal cable is compliant to HDMI 2.1:

48GBs, 8K@120 Hz 144Hz eARC HDR10 4:4:4 HDCP 2.3.

The (3) units were accorded at a deep discount along with a small ship charge. So I do not understand the complaint. Also, we are not an Amazon type seller that can take returns at no charge.

So, it is my hope that you will retain the use of the coax unit with the outside antenna and employ the HDMI unit for the satellite connection.

We cannot guarantee that the Vivids will work in every system. But presently the track record of Vivid and customer satisfaction is very high.

In response to your current statement.

1. The reason you finally agreed to the discount was because I was buying 3 units at the same time.

2. Somewhere on your website you should caution folks that it will not work with Satellite equipment.

3. Not sure why it does not work with an Oppo 205, many people probably have similar units.

4. And yeah, I believe if it does not work YOU should pay for the return shipping.

I found this on the internet about the Oppo HDMI output.

Oppo 205 VIDEO OUTPUT:

1x HDMI 2.0 w/HDCP 2.2

Yet, I am using an 8K HDMI cable successfully. (However, still won’t work with the Add Powr Vivid unit).

I must admit this is all confusing.

Ozzy if you’re willing you can try doing the following:

Take the vivid and run your cable that works with your Oppo and attach it along side the length of the vivid. You should see an improvement to the your video. Also use the provided power supply when putting this together. Give it 10 to 20 min. to do it’s thing.

It’s not going to be as good as going through the unit, but it will give you a sample of what it can do to your signal.

The cable used inside the vivid should have worked it is quite capable at 8k.

illusion,

I tried your suggestion and there was no improvement that I could tell.

You seem to be closely involved with the ADD POWR company, are you the spokesman?
