Aw come on. I was going to hold my tongue, but the hype got to me. I was there when the original BBE 202 was released and I developed the BBE2002 home model myself.Here's what the "Magic BBE" does:
1-the bass is boosted below around 200 Hz
2-the highs above around 2kHz are dynamically boosted based on midrange level
3-either the mids or highs (can't remember--it's been 15 years) are flipped in phase.thassall. Yes, it makes cheap stuff sound a lot better. But time alignment? Not really.
