I agree with every single word of the review.
What does intact mean? I feel once music has been through Analog to Digital Conversion it's already been damaged.
let's not focus on coldplay. The lead guitar post processing through the burwen software sounded pretty much like a real instrument live.
One can make that argument about any recording or replay stage from the recording mic right through to the speaker drivers that energise the air in your room. The question here is to you want to deliberately manipulate it further? As I understand it from your definition upthread the Bobcat product adds digital reverb to the signal, and as such can probably be defined as an FX unit, hence my mentioning products such as the Aphex, BBE etc, which similarly alter/modify a signal to make it sound 'nicer'.
Hi Barry
I have been using it since 2008. I clearly remember that day I bought it. From the moment I put it in my system I found my listening fatigue completely went away and I could turn the volume up loud again and enjoy music. But most importantly it played back all those songs I had heard on LP and tape with the familiar analog sound and all the emotion of those recordings. The music was so addictive I took my laptop to work and was listening to music with the software on the train to London, something I have never done before.
It is the single best thing I have ever purchased and makes all recordings sound completely analog and musical. Little details hidden away are suddenly audible and enjoyable.
It's not expensive at all.
It basically adds high frequency (almost inaudible) reverbation to digital files, and the end result is a file that sounds completely analog. By that I mean that old familiar (if you are old enough to remember) "FAT" analog sound. No listening fatigue, and all the emotion of a live performance. According to Dick the complex calculations also end up improving the signal to noise ratio and everything is just so much clearer to hear and the smearing of notes especially in the high frequencies are gone.
While I do love the Chord Hugo, I love the Burwen bobcat much, much more and has given me countless hours of listening joy.
You can take away all of my Naim amps and Chord Hugo but I simply will never listen to music without the Burwen Bobcat.

Mark Levinson (the founder of the company named after him) has also come out with a similar software for OS X called Masterclass. You can find it on his Daniel Hertz website here http://www.danielhertz.com/index.php/master-class
Hope this helps

I thought it was a 50 calibre machine gun designed for use in extreme low temperatures.
