5BBE 482i Sonic Maximizer: WOW!!  Jul 26, 2009
Wow! What a difference; it really cleaned up my stereo.

I thought I had a pretty decent stereo (Martin Logan Quests, Adcom 565's, Oracle Delphi turntable, Cambridge CD...) but the Sonic Maximizer made a very big improvement. If you get one, please don't judge it until you've put 40 hours or more on it. It definitely makes a difference out of the box, but improves a lot when broken in a while. I listened for a couple hours but then had the CD player and preamp feeding it for several days solid. Then I listened again and it sounded a lot better. I continued to burn it in for about a week - what an improvement.

5bbe sonic maximizer sound improvement  Feb 18, 2009
the sonic max used on my bass guitar amp,was run in thru my effects loop.notice a diffinite clarity in the sound of my bass notes,with a bit of punch.can dail in more treble or bass on the max,only want to dail in just enough ,punch ,a bit like a eq.would suggest using a compessor limitor also .the model i got has two channels ,only using one ,rack mounted into my bass rig.this would be good for vocals and other instruments.

5bbe482i sonic maximizer - get one!  Jan 30, 2009
got this thing a few weeks back - great buy from amazon - about $70 cheaper than musician's friend. i'm using it through an effects loop in my marshall. the other guitar player has it going through the loop in his boogie. need to adjust the knobs a bit, but it can definitely add some balls to your sound. it's similar to an eq, but seems to clear up the mud and smush the distortion to a nice, clear, punch you in the face sound. it can even add a little distortion. get one, mess around w/ your levels, it's most def worth the money.
plus, it's really versatile. you can use it in your mix in the studio, you can use it in your PA, for vocals, drums, whatever. i heard it in a store through a PA just hooked up to a stereo - turn that mofo on and 'ka plow!' an over simplification of what it does is like pushing a 'loudness' button on a stereo or receiver. it kinda 'un-muffles' the sound as well.

This box made a huge difference in the clarity of vocals in our praise band. The adjustments enabled the improvements without increasing the volumes. Great tool!
