Well yes - Guillaume got the Etalon isolator in the post just before we were going to start testing hybrid interconnects on the O'dA. I have to admit I was a little bit sceptical as I've found these things tend to be subtle at best. My hearing's not as good as it used to be either so I was expecting to be a bit disappointed.
Well the moment the Etalon was in place I could tell there was a difference, and it seemed to get a little better after maybe 1/2 an hour or an hour or so. I have to admit I can't actually remember how it improved though (!) - I think everything was just calmer, lower noise floor, easier to make out instruments etc., but I vaguely recall it seemed a bit more lively too? I was so struck with it that the thought did cross my mind that this was a decent investment, and considering what a tightwad I am that's high praise.
