Many years ago I had the Bybee ic filters. When I took them out of my system the sound improved. So for about the last eight years I have ignored all of his stuff.
Husk01, I bought a Syn. Res. PowerCell 10SE several years ago after hearing a demonstration of it. I have had many, many, ac filters, this is the only one that I still have.

The only other ones that I have liked are the Sound Applications and Walker Velocitor, but they don't match the PowerCell in openness and bass.
Sabai, I have limits to what I will try, but thanks for the recommendation.
Sabai, all that I can really say is that the Mk II is clearly better than original SE 10. I'm in a very perplexing situation where my BMC gear, especially the M1 amps, do not like any conditioner or filter before them. I had the Sound Application SA-1 filter and found it outstanding on all equipment except the BMC gear. I like the BMC gear, so right now I am using a filter only on my digital gear, including the computer.
Sabai, It was a long time ago. All I really remember is that a friend had suggested taking the filters off the ics. I did and we both just looked at each other. The music was more open and live. Actually, this was my second experience with them. Earlier I had just tried them from a dealer and returned them after two days. Then John Curl had strongly recommended them and I respect him, so I bought several sets. He was wrong this time IMHO.
Sabai, when you think about it, the entire enterprise of internet posting about audio, may be a waste of time. I must say, however, that on occasion someone as ernest as you causes me to try something or retry something.
Sabai, I don't mean to belabor the point, but if everything is system dependent, how can you learn or teach? If you have someone you can trust you can learn. But most of us posting here have no reason to trust the tastes directing what we buy and characteristics of each of our systems.
