Audio Magic Pulse Gen products

Has anyone tried the Audio Magic Pulse Gen products?
I have located a few reviews but not much recent activity.

I understand they emit a signal that is to reduce or eliminate RFI/EMI that is riding on the cables.

Well, I just installed the "speaker clarifiers" to my DIY speaker cables and thus far I am really impressed. I am hearing better tonal qualities. That is,voices and instruments are much more real or whole sounding. And the soundstage is way deeper, allowing the sound to identify where each instrument is located in the mix.

So, I went ahead and ordered 4 of the Pulse Gen modules that go inside of components and I will be installing them in the next few weeks.

I plan on doing a full review of these products once they are installed, but I still wonder why there has not been much talk of these products on Audiogon.

Ozzy, I also am perplexed why Audio Magic gear in general, and the Pulse generators in particular, don't get more attention. I have a pretty extensive line of AM products, including the Mini REf Gen II with pulse dampening, Liquid Air speaker cables, a Liquid Air XLR IC, a hand full of fuses, three duplexes, the Speaker Clarifier, a blue dot, 2 older generation power filters, and probably some other stuff I am forgetting. I have found it all to be superb. I am planning on picking up 2 pulse generators for my Cary monoblocks in a couple months. I will be eagerly awaiting your review. Don't be afraid to share preliminary impressions. Jerry states without hesitation his gear produces improvements that are not subtle, and that has been my take on this stuff as well. If you find you don't need all four, let me know! :)

Thanks Brownsfan for your posting.
Most of the Oppo modders are using the Pulse Gen in their mods and rave about their addition.

Question: Where is the best place for the Pulse Gen's to be installed? I'm thinking as near as possible to the transformer but that may not be possible. What has been your experience?

After I try the additional Pulse Gen's, I may try the Blue Dot.

Ozzy, I would call or email Jerry for advice on placement inside your components. I suspect placement inside is not critical, although it seems I read placement next to the power supply is optimal. The fact that my Coincident pre benefits so much from placement next to my Mini Ref II tells me that the field generated by the pulse gen module is probably large enough to work anywhere inside the case.

One has to wonder about the new PEA modules as well.

Hi Ozzy, We don't speak of Pulse Gens because they are magic boxes! I started with one in my dac with fantastic results. Next was my Supratek Cabernet pre and more improvement. I then had Jerry build me a Mini Ref 2 with Oyaide R1's and I could not be happier. Even his super fuses make a difference. I now believe in magic.
