Hello after about 10 years inactive on this forum! Last weekend, after doing some work on the back of my system in order to sort out some issues that had cropped up over the years, I decided to reconnect my QSD -2. I've had this little gem for many years but recall how, with great anticipation connecting it and being generally disappointed with the QS results. Over the years, I got very lazy and did QS though my Audionics Composer in Enhance with the controls adjusted to try to roughly (very) equate to a QS formula. This is something Steve Kennedy showed me back in the 1970s. Again, never really happy with the signal placement, but it was at least as good if not better than what I recall from the QSD-2. Anyways, last weekend, I dutifully checked the input balance and then using the tape monitor out from the Composer sent that to the QSD-2 inputs, and put on Jim Croce. WOW! What a great decoding experience! Needless to say I listened to about half of the rest of my sad neglected QS albums that evening! They are uniformly wonderful! My only comnplaint: why are all the Command albums so compressed? They sound like they were mastered on a cassettte tape!
