What Do You Guys Think Of This?

Propeller Head Plaza

Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

There's a company called DAKIOM that claims in so many words to have found the "holy grail" to audio nirvana! They are making some pretty incredible claims. This is taken from their website...
=====================================================================
A $200 amplifier wearing DakiOm Feedback Stabilizers can sound noticeably better than a naked $2000 amplifier, even to the ears of ordinary people! (...Put a Feedback Stabilizer on the $2000 amplifier and the sound will be even better.)

This may sound like an extraordinary claim, but hearing is believing. For example, take the HomeTheaterDirect.com Stereo Amplifier A2100 (100 Watts per Channel, $219) which one can buy online (we have no affiliation with them). Connect our A203 stabilizer to the speaker terminals and R203 to the line-out. (Even if unused, stabilizing the line-out reduces noise in the amplifier). The A2100 + DakiOm sounds better than any un-stabilized amplifier under $2000. If fact, let us know if you can find a stock amplifier under $3000 that is better sounding because we haven't been able to. If you add all our DIY tweaks to the $219 A2100 amplifier, especially project #3 with another A203, this combination will compete with any un-stabilized amplifier regardless of price.
=====================================================================
I haven't made a final decision on DAKIOM and their claims, so for now this is just a post to expose others to what they say and believe. I'm curious what the technically adept members such as tomservo and/or jneutron, as well as others here have to say about DAKIOM's claims. So please persue their site and tell us what you think about their claims after you've looked through their website.

Using one of those amplifiers will cause brain damage (nt) - Richard BassNut Greene 14:18:10 04/24/07 (3)

Well, at least this tweak is in the signal path! Unlike some others . . . - Pat D 20:55:52 04/25/07 (2)

Heard them at the 2005 CES -- and they certainly helped in their demo setup. Then again... well... nt - clarkjohnsen 13:37:01 04/23/07 (1)
