Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device?

another huge plus for the QOL is you can go out and get an integrated amp or preamp that does not have input select on it's remote since you can just hook all of your sources into the 4 inputs on the QOL. A lot of the good preamps and integrated amps have remote volume control but not input select.

I have had the qol device in my system for over two weeks and found at best it made very minor changes on some recordings soundstages and placement of players on the stage. I did not find these changes to be a significant improvement compared to when the SCS is put into bypass.

Regarding timbres or tonality I experienced that the SCS at times kinda dried out the overall sound of my system.

Finally, even in bypass mode I did not find this device to be totally transparent, it added some amount of noise and took away some of the purity of my systems overall clarity.

I'm a staff reviewer for hometheaterreview.com and the
auditioning of this piece will be presented as a formal review in the next few months on the website.

What is SCS or what does SCS stand for?

Teajay, "minor changes", Wow! Have you had your hearing checked lately?
Just kidding, what kind of speakers are you using?

Ozzy, I have not moved my speakers since I got my QOL, but I would not be surprised that the differences you found were due to the QOL adding phase info. In the owner's manual, I think they recommend less of a toe-in for the speakers.
Mihalis, I share your concerns about the build quality not befitting it's 4K price tag.
Teajay, On some recordings the changes are "minor" but on others, especially orchestral, the changes can be dramatic and ususally makes things more wet, not drier.
Kclone, SCS stands for "Signal Completion Stage"

After reading all of the posts in this thread, I must say that I have experienced some of the negatives and all of the positives expressed above. For me, the QOL/SCS is a keeper as it benefits outweighs it drawbacks, and there is no guarantee that this technology will ever be available in a pre-amp or whatever. The QOL/SCS has added flexibility to my system and also when watching movies, I find that the phantom center channel mode is significantly improved.
