The initial fascination with the artificially wide and/or sizzley sound wears off quickly & grows tiresome much like watching a movie in 3D with those red/blue glasses.
That said, over the last 20 years I've conservatively used a variety of these gizmos a handful of times at the clients behest.
Admittedly I would be curious to try the Bedini B.A.S.E. unit but I've never had my hands on one : - )
After all, music an artform...
if you want to pipe it thru a Blattnerphone, Sackbut, or RatShack impedance transformer to achieve a desired effect... rock on.
