When I purchased my first pair of DSP5200SE from Bruce in December 2017, he gently suggested that I audition Shunyata power for them despite what Bob Stuart had said. I had always been content with stock for my 5000s, 33s and, later, Smileys but was so impressed with Special Edition that I took a flyer and learned something. That was my downfall.

Because I moved the Smileys to a new acoustically-challenged listening area instead of selling them, I started playing around with different ways to coax more out of the older technology, including power, network, vibration and DSP to augment physical room treatment. Many, many relatively inexpensive experiments followed, and continue today.

I did try eno2, which stays in the system (now featuring DSP9s) as the last cable into a Pi4 Diretta Target. Beats the pants off my 218.
