According to TweekGeek, You should only use one per component, two can actually degrade the sound:

Thx again! I haven't seen that article yet. However, I wasn't thinking about putting multiples iQSE into one device. I wanted to know the overall improvement on your system by combining all the iQSEs that you have in different places. Sorry that I did not make myself clear in the first place:) Please go back and enjoy more music, I am sure it sounds awesome! |
The difference with the iQSEs in my system is definitely cumulative. I was very pleased with the results I got from putting the first one on my Powerscreen. I was wondering if I would get much improvement from adding more. I was surprised at how much difference the one in my transport made, and then again, with my DAC. Between the three, I feel like my system, that I was already quite happy with, has been transformed. After each change I’ve made lately, I find myself wondering "Can it get much better than this?". Then I do the next thing, and it does. |
My response to others and findings so far...( my system is a vinyl only playback). @tubes444, @ geoffkait, "A soundstage that extends a foot beyond the edges of the speakers? Sha-zam!" I think differences in soundstage variances depend quite a bit on the actual recording itself and one's room as well. In my small, well treated room, I get/have gotten, a soundstage that extends to my side walls too, prior to the iQSEs. I've listened quite a bit since installing these iQSEs. In my room, in terms of the soundstage...what I hear mostly and regularly is the much more natural center stage imagery.The width, depth and placement is more organic. It's really kind of remarkable! I'm hearing complete staging as if it is a live event, not in the studio. Musical representation is very natural, smooth/relaxed and frequency response seems extended with lower volume needed. @tubes444, I don't think that "break-in" is the appropriate phrase here. To me, it's just a new understanding of how the musical presentation has changed and how my brain now hears it. |
