Super clean and quiet playing, finally I got a lossless sound!

Currently, I just play on my home to keep praticing, and I was reading many articles about the power supplies, daisy chains and how them can affect the tone. I never put importance on this, but finally I decided to do it to protect my pedal gear and because I was hearing a buzzing from some pedals. Alright, today the isolated power supply arrived.

I can say, I'm quiet impressed, this thing improved the tone and dynamics like about four times what it was. I was going to get a Voodoo Lab PP 2+, but for the price this thing is worthy. Maybe now I can do my super pedalboard without getting tone suck.

How the tone is improved? Say, playing the guitar with the AC15C1 felt thin and without much life, now with this isolated power supply it feels like a rounded sound (pretty much cloae like the Custom Deluxe Reverb without pedals), and the CDR feels now with clarity and way comfortable to play. Like those ping-pong air games on the play corner.

So, my suggestion is if you don't like your pedals or your amp, probably what you need is an isolated power supply.

By the way, the Empress Echosystem works well with the 9V 300mA included on the Caline CP-08.

Also the Xotic EP Booster works super good at 18 Vdc.

Recently, the Echosystem has been suffering power downs when the power supply gets into a very hot temperature.
