“I’ve had a number of listening sessions with the Sbooster Linear power supply, which seems to have settled down a bit more from new, so I feel ok about sharing impressions. I’m a big fan of the upgrade but don’t want to overhype its impact. Generally my initial impressions still hold: it adds a very firm bass foundation which is not at all slight but quite noticeable. Drums have more weight and impact, and bass guitar has more body. better soundstage and instrument separation. I can more clearly delineate the finer details of instruments. Guitars seem to leap a bit more from the background. Midrange is wonderful. Vocals have more body and feel more rounded. more energy and dynamics. The stock D2 is very musical but just ever so laid back. The Sbooster infuses it with more energy, without losing the essential warm tone. A helpful analogy would be a tube amp set on triode, which has a nice presence and very transparent, but can be soft at the extremes, vs ultra linear mode which adds dynamics, firms up bass, and adds a tad of airiness on top. The Sbooster is like triode infused with all the good parts of ultra linear mode. I like the stock D2 but wanted a bit more dynamics and bass weight and that’s exactly what I got with the Sbooster upgrade. The comparison is not night and day, and it’s not like the upgrade crushes the stock D2. Rather, I hear a noticeable difference that eliminates any niggles I had with the stock D2, and gives it more life and energy. I’m a fan of the Sbooster clearly, and can recommend it without reservation. The positives it brings makes up for any trepidation around the installation.”

“I can't say this was trivial to install, but once it's done, oh boy. It was so worth it. I'd recommend better instructions, color images, or even better, just a link to a video where you can see the entire process. Other than that, highly recommended.”
