WOW!I'm new to this site, but had so much fun reading about this couldn't help but put my $0.02 in.
I've cut a few records in my life....some Gold, some Platinum, and NEVER heard of this device.
We used to use some vintage Neumann tube mikes, a decent console, Yamaha NS-10-M monitors, cut analog and digital, but never heard of this thing. Guess I'll have to look this up and see what all the hype is about.
In 1985 I modified a Sound Work Shop series 40, 56 input console and got it prety much flat from 35kHz down to 10Hz. Turns out the coupling caps were the sonic problem. Heck, the Op-amps are more than capable.
The sad thing was that when you took the output from the console to a power amp, then speakers (with cables), the whole thing went to slam.
So...If this thing is a super small value resistor, with some inductance, how does that improve the sonic quality of the amps and speaker cables. The cables, in and of themselves, are loaded down with resistance, capacitance, inductance....As Little Richard says in the GEICO ad...."Some body hep me".
