Dakiom stabilizers vs Bybee purifiers.

When I tried the Bybees and Dakiom stabilizers, my equipment consisted of: Empirical Audio modified Electrocompaniet EMC-1UP, First Sound Presence Deluxe II, Bryston 14B SST, Audience Au24 interconnects, MAS Signature speaker cabling. I do not recall what power cords or power conditioning I was using at the time.

I tried the newest version of the Dakiom stabilizers and did not like the effect. They made everything muffled. The Bybee quantum purifiers I hooked up to my power conditioner and they helped slightly with my old power cable, which was hooked up to my amp, by removing some background grunge. With my new power cable they muffled the detail a bit. So, in conclusion, I would not bother with either one but instead concentrate on upgrading your power and interconnect cables; I have gone with Signal Cable Silver Resolution cables and enjoy their performance and price.

I already have the dakiom stabilizers connected to my power amp and to the outputs of my pre-pro and it sounds good. But someone once said that good is the enemy of better or best.
I was reading where someone had the same b&w 801 series 80's speakers I have and he said he greatly improved the sound by adding the bybees.
I am scheduled to get the purifiers for my front in a couple of days. I will let you know how they sound.
thanks for your response

I am using a good number of Bybee purifiers and the second generation Dakioms and the results are great. I have a modified Jolida 1000 amp with four Bybee purifiers-two on the input side for the intergrated pre-amp and two on the output from the amp side. In addition I have bybees per electrostatic speaker. The addition of the Dakioms has added more clarity to the details of the music. I am hearing the surrounding instruments more clearly than I had before. In other words the focus is not just on the featured performer, I am getting more of a perception of a group of musicians. There is nothing muffled about what I am hearing. The sound is crystal clear. The bass lines have become more focused - and that is the correct way to describe it. It is not an over emphasis, it just appears closer to the experience of the real thing. I orginally saw the Dakiom ads and dismissed them as more audio BS. However, I read a review by an engineer that was pretty balanced so I decided to give it a try and I thought that I would probably wind up returning the product. However, I have been pleasently surprised. I have to say to anyone that is interested that the product is very much system dependant. It is not possible for it to work for all the varied audio designs. It is a hit or miss. I was fortunate because it works well with my system.

Aaapers,
i had bybee purifiers connected to my fronts and immediately i heard instruments in the background that came forward in the soundstage. i temporarily removed the dakioms from my fronts so i could check out the bybees by themselves.
after a break in period I will re-add the dakioms because I was told that they were two diffeent technologies. one should not defeat what the other was designed to do.
i will enjoy this moment until the next upgrade bug hit
