Know anything about the BSG Technologies QOL?

I just read the review, which taught me more about frying eggs than anything else. Something alluded to in a letter in this month's Absolute Sound indicates that there is an increase in forwardness of the image. In my system (Sound Lab M-1 PX electrostats) the Qol seems to stabilize the image in speakers that often sound too recessed under normal circumstances. In the 6 moons article manufacturers reply, Larry Kay is correct when he states that the variability is in the recordings. We all have noticed the annoying lack of consistency in R-L balance in any number of recordings, just to name one issue. I agree with Oddiophool: put the Qol in one system and live with it. After about two months with the unit I have found that, in general, it makes the sound more cohesive with little or no loss of transparency. I would like to have heard a comparison of the effect of Qol on the Duntech Sovereigns vs. the Beveridge electrostats.

Anyone else try out the Qol ?

I certainly do. For us it is all it has been described as. Our system never sounded closer to the live event. No loss of transparency that we can detect.
Instaled between pre and Amp. The Qol reqiured over 300 hours to sound its best. No fuses yet, just a Triode Wire Labs AC cord did the trick.
Now you gents that have not heard one in YOUR system get over the marketing nonsense and prose. Gets one interested, that is the whole idea. Next would be demo one. Then and then only make up your mind. really that simple.
In all fairness to any Manf listening is the only way to tell. One may feel that the marketing prose is a bit much or the claims made difficult to believe. Howeve boys proof is in da pudding.
I would more than happy to demo the Qol in anyones home in the NY tri State area.
now what we heard. A more realistic sized soundstage. not overblown, but larger. height of soundstage was really exposed. Tonality did not change for the worse, actually improved. Soundstage came forward and deeper with greated width as well. No loss of clarity when in. the bypass swith is moot really. no need for it. Once Qol is engaged unless you play a worn or scratched LP just no need.
As far as tweeking goes a Triode Wire Lab 8ga PC worked well for us. Have not tried fuse . Running single ended connection not balanced. Tried balanced in other systems and feel there may be an advantage in sonics bt jury is still out.
As an aside so far every buddy whom has heard this in their system bought one.
Really what do have to lose, try one. My bet it is a keeper. Until then chill.

Almost forgot. The balance thing is recording dependant. A balance control really helps out. Or sometimes if one uses tubes that one is stronger than the other which adds to the inferior recording.
As far as fowardness is concerned, depends on recording as well.
Living with Qol now for over 8 months and hearing it numerous systems, all I can say is it is not going anywhere. One would have to rip it out of my dead cold hands.

Pipedream, Glad you are enjoying the Qol. I have had mine for about 2-3 months. I leave the Qol engaged all the time too. My comments on this thread show how much I appreciate the Qol.

I have a very difficult time reading some of the negative comments, especially those from people who have never actually tried one. The comment about lack of transparency and clarity troubles me because I just don't know how anyone could state that, in my opinion it is just the opposite.

Now because the Qol improves the dynamics of the instruments, voices etc, it may seem at times that certain instruments, staging or voices overwhelm other instruments, staging or voices. Perhaps that is why some say there is a loss of clarity. But it sounds right to me, just like live music sounds.

I have only used my Qol with the balanced connections and I am using the same interconnects throughout my 2 channel system.
A good power cord is a plus, I'm using a Synergistic Research Tesla 2 because it was available and all my other power cables are Synergistic Research Tesla series.
