Guys,

For below £12, and if you do not have some sort of power conditioner, or if you have a Tacima let's say ( which I thought was wonderful) get one of these!

At first I thought the improvement I thought I heard was the placebo effect, but with a lot of listening since I got the Belkin, I no longer think that!

The difference to my ears is a similar one to when a better quality ic or speaker cable has been installed, an extra clarity at the top end, a smoother very slightly more prominent mid range, and bass seems a bit cleaner.

As I say elsewhere, for £11.97 (rrp c £60) it really is a no brainer!

I've ordered a couple myself. One for the bedroom system and the other for the TV/DVD/PS2 in my son's room. Waiting for them to arrive...

When did you order it?

Fwiw, mine arrived just a couple of days after I placed the order, mind you, they are sent from Newark which is only about 25 miles from where I live, if that is relevant.

More like yours has got slowed up in the Xmas mail.

Ordered it about a week ago. Had a card through the door today when I got home. It's probably them. Pick them up tomorrow morning. :)

Mules are routinely held up at Gretna customs.... To remind those north of the border what remote means.... Then the swim to Rosyth.... Not easy....

I hope you can!
I found a card from Royal Mail only 2 days after ordering the unit, but then had to wait a further 48 hours whilst it was returned to the "system".

Even then, it took them 15 minutes to find it! :steam:

Picked them up this morning. What a bargain for £12. One's going into my son's room and the other into the bedroom system. Excellent value I think. :)
