Skeptical? Don't be...

So I know exactly what you're thinking: "$1700 for a piece of gear that just gives me clean power and adds nothing special to my sound", right? I know that's what you're thinking, because I thought it too. But was I ever WRONG! Wow -- what a difference balanced power makes! Absolutely NO electronic noise whatsoever, be it 60hz hum, crackle -- I am talking N O T H I N G. And this is no cosmetic coverup -- the IT-20II gets to the core of the problems and actually addresses the physics of electricity, actually taking mangled, problematic power and creating pure, unadulterated power where problems simply do not (and some cannot) exist. And it's in that "nothing you hear" that all the value of the cost of this unit is found. OK, so it doesn't do anything in terms of your source audio, and 1700 clams can add some nice toys to whatever genre of music you do -- but don't forget: whether you are doing recordings or have a live application (or both!), if your source sounds like garbage, your music sounds like garbage -- and this unit takes out the trash in spades. For me, I have live applications where my venues consistently seem to have very poor power quality. Transformer buzz, 60hz hum -- the works. I've tried several solutions, all to no avail. Then my sales engineer, Jason Koons, told me to try the IT-20II. When I plugged everything into it, I was completely amazed at the clarity -- I swear I even hear increased headroom and overall sound quality! So throw your skepticism out the door with your poor power issues and BUY THIS UNIT. You will be so thankful you did!
