   One of the first things that was noticed after the Maxiimus was powered up, is the complete lack of electronic stress. Most of us listen to music to relax, to motivate or to get inspiration. Restlessness that comes as a standard with the listening to music via HiFi equipment completely vanishes. Listening to music becomes a realistic experience.

   I’m very happy with my new Swiss box. Immediately after powering it, the sound has become more organic and due to this sounds more realistic. After a few hours, the sound has improved a lot more. Even my television has a more natural picture, I can watch it for hours and hours fascinated.

   Last Monday I was with two of my friends and listened to the P16: the sound scape was immense, every now and then, instruments appeared even from the back. It took some time to get used to it. The music became comprehensive, loudspeakers and other equipment seemed to vanish. Sound was very natural, the word “delicate” every time came to my mind while listening. Imaging of voices and instruments was simply breathtaking. In fact, there was no aspect in reproduction that was not substantially improved. Because the gain in quality was so immense, we listened technically (against our principles) but I’m sure experience will improve also by the lorryload.

   This is a no brainer for every listening room. It only does positive things.

   Mark Gelderman – 1 Mai 2016

   The test by audio journalist Werner Ero was immediately interesting to me, as the P16 has been designed to kill electrosmog. I bought the P16 primarily for the well being (harmonization) and is placed centrally in my home. Soon after connecting it a doom feeling came over us. The mix of a headache, shivers, tingling and fatigue faded away for the greater part after just a few hours. The next two weeks the positive effects become ever more clear. Some observations within the range of the Maxiimus: fresh odor, a clear mind (it’s as if thinking is sped up), more energy, and it’s like certain appliances (heat recovery ventilator) work more silent, and there’s a quicker recovery after exposure to radiation. To my great pleasure, I notice improvement in the music reproduction also: more focus, imaging, room (holographic), dynamics and faithful reproduction of voice and instruments. Clear, unforced and relaxed, even at low volumes and without turning the speakers into the listening position. After 2 weeks I experienced such a massive jump to realistic reproduction that I already regard it as normal… A precious improvement!

   Electromagnetic fields stumble upon each other, creating new fields. These newly created fields are called “electrosmog” and will influence the sound of your equipment adversely. What is the negative influence of “electrosmog” on your sound? Middle to high frequencies will sound harsh. You will also loose dynamics and transparency in the low end. Individual focus on voices and instruments becomes less tangible. Your stage will be less wide and less deep. It will degrade the authenticity and richness. It will lessen details and spatial imaging.

   Of all mains improving products we tested the last 17 years, the Maxiimus P16 is by far the most effective and convincing tool to enhance the sound quality of your audio system. Only now you realize to what extent the “smog” influences your set.

   Listening to your music with and without the P16 is a world of difference. During last months we demonstrated what the Maxiimus P16 can do to the sound to many of our customers. We rarely observed this amount of astonishment from our customers. It’s a tool that’s very easy to demonstrate by playing music with and without the Maxiimus P16. The contrast between the two situations is so large, you can hardly imagine playing music without the P16 installed. What’s so special, what will the Maxiimus P16 add to the sound quality?
   – It clearly adds tranquility and authority
   – Timbre is richer and more diverse
   – Low frequencies are more powerful, tangible and more taut
   – Voices and instruments are more tangible, but also more distinct from each other
   – Sound scape is wider and deeper
   – Will improve details and spatial imaging of the recording

   * Benefit of the P16 is the fact it is mobile. This adds even more flexibility.

   During testing we noticed results can be improved significantly by experimenting with the placement. You will notice better dynamics, tangibility and timbre. Freedom of placement is an important factor of success of the P16. By turning the Schuko mains plug 180 degrees the P16 exhibits a completely different character with 2 possibilities:
   – In one orientation the sound scape is larger and deeper. There’s a bit more focus on details
   – The other orientation gives a more intimate sound scape and the timbre of the middle frequencies is clearly warmer.

   The Maxiimus absolutely is an enrichment for any sound system and is by far the best investment concerning the mains.

   You know when you first switch your stereo on, there’s a slight ‘tiss’ to everything until it warms up and settles down and everything comes into focus. The P16 establishes this focus very quickly and gets better the longer the system is on. Every note hangs in the air, you can clearly hear different notes start and if slow music, decay into the distance. Kate Bush’s ‘The Painter’ from Aerial demonstrates this well.

   Vocals become easier to decipher and everything occupies its own space.

   It also lifts veils into the music, I assume by getting rid of the ‘electrosmog’, so that you hear further into the mix. Lennon and McCartney harmonies have never been clearer.

   The above two attributes prove to be a heady mix in that it brings you a lot closer to the music and hence you get more enjoyment from the music.

   One caveat, around about the third day, that the music took a dip but that was temporary and I presume that was part of the burn in period.

   At 1700 odd euros plus power cord the P16 is an expensive ‘tweak’ but after hearing what it does for my system I’m very happy to pay this as it’s like getting an expensive component upgrade to the system.
