I'm incapable of spending that little. I've spent more on some of my dinners!

Re: New ISO REGEN
I'm assuming along with the other 10,998 people on Up Tone's mailing list we both received the email last evening announcing May availability.
I had purchased the USB regen. Elegant little device though to this day I'm not sure I could hear any improvement in any of the 3 systems I tried it with...hmmm...there are those who swear by it though.
In any case I am eager to hear the reviews come in but am not inclined to purchase without knowing what it will do in any of my systems.
Yes I am open minded but also feel like most of us who have top grade gear and cabling that yet one more tweak does not necessarily constitute an improvement, perhaps a change.
In any case, it'll be fun to see/read the comments and reviews as they come... thank you!

Re: New ISO REGEN
I have heard the Regen in 4 different systems including 2 of my own. It makes a noticeable difference. It is clearly DAC dependent looking at user reviews. I have also heard it with a good linear power supply. This further improved the sound-blacker back ground, a little more detail and resolution.
I am very interested in reading user reviews on the ISO Regen. It is cheap for $350 but I think that what made the Regen Amber so appealing was the $175 cost for budget minded people (not the typical Audio Shark Members).My Gear- Mains System-Pass X250 amp, BAT VK-51se preamp, Luxman DA-06 DAC, Magnepan 1.6's, Thorens TD-145 TT, Dual Martin Logan Subs, Vintage Luxman T-110 Tuner, Cables-WW Platinum 7 USB, Cardas Parsec XLR, AQ Columbia DBS 72v XLR, Belden 8402 XLR.

Re: New ISO REGEN
I liked the Regen on my Trinity DAC, but not on my Lampi DAC. That said, I'm a firm believer in those gizmos - in my current system I have both the Intona USB isolator and Wyred 4 Sound Recovery USB reclocker. That make a very noticable and positive difference. The new ISO Regen is said to integrate those two.
I also have UpTone Audio JS-2 PSU and two LPS-1 PSUs - both great products, I cannot recommend them highly enough. The LPS-1 makes a huge difference on sonore microRendu and SOtM SMS-200. I use the JS-2 to power both LPS-1s, which in turn power my Jcat Femto card and Wyred 4 Sound Recovery USB reclocker.
I have the ISO Regen on order.Adam

Just want to add that not only USB, connection like SPDIF/BNC/toslink also benefited from de-jittering and reclocking. I use Empirical Audio Synchromesh (BNC/toslink in, BNC out - 2 inputs 1 output) and Dynamo LPS for my media player and AppleTV to great results.

Re: New ISO REGEN
I hear a very noticeable improvement with the Wyred 4 Sound Recovery between my server and DAC. I also use the W4S Remedy to reclock and upconvert the coax signal for Redbooks. Very big difference!

I had the Regen amber and it made an improvement when I was using my MacBook Pro as my source thu USB.

Re: New ISO REGEN
I read the description of this device and it does seem to be more targetted towards the source device, i.e. laptop?
