Dummy Proof clarity
I use this thing for my guitar, my bass player, sound systems, pa's, you name it. There is nothing more frustrating than trying to dial in a 31 band EQ and get just the right sound. This made a huge improvement to all of my audio processing. Plus it's dummy proof, you adjust 2 knobs and you're done. It doesn't get any easier than that. If you don't have the ear for dialing in an EQ, this product is for you. It adds fullness to your overall mix and clarify's everything. A must have for guitarists.

What You've Been Waiting For!
As a guitarist in a metal band, i was looking for something to add clarity to my tone and the BBE Sonic Maximizer 482i does just that. Right out of the box i was impressed with the way it cleaned up and clarified the notes. Not only that but you don't have to crank the knobs all the way up to hear a difference.
The great thing about this is that it eliminates a use for an EQ. Just set the presents on your amp and adjust the knobs on the BBE and you have a complete and full sound that will impress your audience. It's inexpensive and a great addition to any rack system. Don't be fooled by the price, you get more than you pay for. Plug this into your rack and prepare to hear your music in a way you have never heard it before.

Makes all the difference
As a DJ, and one that play in the Rock/Grunge area, I want the music to pop, to sound alive. Without getting into any technical stuff, this little deal does the job in spades.
This adds life to your music. Personally, change anything in my DJ setup you want, but this I will never part with. It is more than worth the under 200-buck investment.
If you think your sound is just kickin and you don't have one of these by BBE in your rack. Get one, and see the light.

More bang for your buck!
This unit does exactly what it claims and it does it well. If you need to add some punch to a recording or to your PA this will get the job done. The unit does a great job of bringing life to flat tracks (especially bass guitar tracks). If you need more power and punch in your Bass tracks this unit is the right place to look. I would recommend not using it on every track of a song because it will become muddy and overly compressed, but when used sparingly this item will have a significant impact on your recordings.

W O W ! ! !
I started using the Maximizer a couple of weeks ago and wow what a difference it makes for my guitar rig. I use to use a 4x12, 4x10 and a 1x15 cabinets for my rig to get the sound I needed, but not anymore since I got the BBE Maximizer!!! And using it is so easy, just adjust 2 knobs to your liking and you're done.. My two yr. old can work with this unit.
