Did anyone experience Audio Prism's Ground Control

Just in case anyone was lurking and has not seen the 6 moons report, here is the link.

Budp:

Is this the same thing you were refering to as 'Electron Pools' on other forums?

It is an extension and significant refinement of the exploration carried out under the title of Electron Pools.

The 6 Moons review didnt sound too positive to me. One reviewer ( below) saw no merit to it the other (below at bottom) thought it maybe made a improvement.

First Reviewer
"After 'breaking them in' for the equivalent of 40 hours or so, I experimented with the devices in three systems in three different venues; with three different speakers, two different preamps, two different amps, one integrated, one receiver and one CD player. Over a series of sighted A/B listening sessions, I sometimes reckoned that I heard a touch more body and low-level dynamics in the mids. But the differences weren’t tenacious enough to trust. In unsighted—not double-blind—A/Bs it became clear that I could not dependably identify when they were in or out. The same held true over periods of long-term listening. Since I was unable to reliably detect the possible differences in or out of the various contexts explored, I have to say that the Ground Control devices aren’t for me. Your mileage may vary."

Second Reviwer
"I will go so far as predicting that some audiophiles might not hear any improvements either due to their systems not revealing them or their lack of sensitivity to the particular sonic benefits the GC devices convey."

Ozzy - I think you probably excerpted the only sentence in my review where I lent credence to doubters. I think it is fair to say that most tweaks do not find universal acceptance in the marketplace. That is the basis behind my statement.

However, you should note that everyone who was exposed to A/B'ing them in my two systems, heard the improvement and liked it. Subsequent to the review, I brought them to another friend's high end system and he was also favorably impressed. So, my own experimentation with audiophile friends has been 100% positive.
