As with the original DigiBuss, I'm assuming the new is designed to improve power differently than does the UberBuss. Charles, your description of what you're hearing with the new Digi could easily apply to precisely what an UberBUSS excels at. Dave, not sure you can or will divulge the secret sauce, but can you comment on the difference now between the Uber and the new Digi? If not in terms of design, then perhaps in terms of impact on power and resulting sound quality?
Hey, you've got me quite excited to check this out!
The major difference is the approach to noise elimination and trapping. The Uber is a 3-stage device with:
1 - the EMI/RFI core that traps noise and turns it into heat
2 - The Power Factor Correction network - it improves the power quality factor and makes inductive devices attached to it more efficient
3 - The Final Filters that filter out common mode HF noise
The new DigiBUSS is the only device that I make that has an inductor in the Hot and Neutral circuit. The inductor is rated at 32A @ 250VAC and has extremely low resistance. The receptacle filters are very similar to the ones in the Uber, but are targeted at sligtly different frequencies.
Part of the recipe is ERS cloth combined with my proprietary IGFD and other RFI (digital noise) absorbers. There is a lot more to it including an approach to ground noise elimination that I 'think' is unique. That took most of the work and and more than a few prototypes.
As with most of my designs they are very different from accepted norms and, quite frankly, part of the reason I pot my circuits is to protect proprietary intellectual property. Of course the main reason I pot circuits is for safety.
In this world of entitlement I refuse to share my work with whores that will rob the technology and profit from my hard work. R&D is my forte' and I'm quite proud of the fact that I don't intentionally steal other peoples' designs. I'm not so naive to think that I'm Einstein or Bohr, but I do my best to be an innovator and come up with superior methods. There is a lot going on at the quantum level when it comes to electricity and power in general. I try to get to solutions by thinking up from waaaaayyyy down there.
Huh, I kinda chased that rabbit way into the hole and I hope this helped. 🐇
