seems if you like your sound so much why would you want to change it. adding these things i think would change the sound you like so much
wwshull,
How do you know the superchargers will change the sound if you haven't tried them.You're a guesser which is probally what you do the best...a 2 cents'er.

That alone tells me you have no clue what you are talking about.Bla,Bla,Bla.I'll keep your thinking in mind.
According to the Fremer review in Stereophile (They Don't) change the sound...Hence my question to users that might have tried them or are using them!! can they agree with the reviewers comments.So lets leave it up to the real thinkers/users who tried or use them.

Warren:When are you going to get to give them a demo???Is a dealer getting them in for you?My tube amps are push/pull.
At this time I'm really not thinking seriously of doing a demo. Living near the Big Apple, I don't think it would be hard to give these babies a whirl, but..and that's a big but, we're still talking $5k plus two power cords and jumper cables? We're talking close to $6.5k. Too much at this time. 500 watts of quality SET sound that I have now? Keeps me itching, but not nuts for the move. I'll see as time goes by. If I could get the wife to go for that kind of money, I would have a hard time not upgrading my Definition 1.5s to the new Definition 2s. go figure...
I am using the superchargers with my Lamm 2.1's and VR-9 speakers. It maintains the tonal qualities of the Lamm but with greater dynamics, better bass definition. The imaging and soundstaging is improved. My only criticism would be slight loss of finess in the extreme treble, but this is being very picky. Overall, it is Lamm on steroids. I love the sound of my Lamms and wondered what they would sound like with more power. The Lamm ML-3's will be $140,000. This was a cheaper alternative for me.They are a definant improvement.All that have heard it agree. Be sure to use the 16-0hm tap.
Bigdoc,
Thanx for your personal positive input with the Superchargers.Your help is appreicated..
My Manley Mahi's do not have a seperate 16ohm tap..just a single set of binding posts per mono amp.
They work and sound well with my New Dynaudio 5.4's.. They also did the same on my Vintage infinity RS1b Mid/Tweet towers.
Now its lets see if I can find a reasonably priced pair to test run...
