NEW!! Plug&Play Adaptors with "Bybee Slipstream" Inside




Cryotweaks offers those of you who wish to experience the sonic benefits of the Bybee Slipstream Purifiers, but do not want to tear into your components, an alternative. The Plug and Play adaptors. These adaptors will accomodate loudspeaker, digital audio, analog, and video applications. This is the next best thing to soldering the raw Bybee Slipstream Purifiers right into your equipment. Plus you have the added benefit of portability, meaning you can move them around within your system. Now you can experiment with placement, try them on other components, and keep them when you sell your gear. We use only high quality connectors and solder to minimize their effects on the impact of the Bybee SlipstreamPurifier. As always, you can try them for 30 days at no risk.

The newly improved devices now utilize the Bybee Slipstream technology inside. A large improvement over the standard Bybee devices. Much better midrange resolution, and no rolling off of extreme high frequencies! This is especially noteable on the RCA adaptors. For the speaker adaptors, we use Cardas Gold/rhodium plated copper binding posts and 3/8" spades or Eichmann Banana plugs. The 6" wire lead is 99.99997% pure continuous cast copper.

The RCA Purifier has a high quality Cardas female RCA adaptor on one end, and a copper Eichmann RCA Bullet plug on the other. It incorporates the latest Slipstream technology for truly stunning performance. They can be used on any RCA terminated analog, digital and video interconnects. I really liked placing one Signature RCA Purifier on each end of the already terrific sounding Cryotweaks silver digital cable. It significantly improved midrange and highs over the older Plug & Play version. In fact, I now prefer the sound of my stock DAC in my B&K preamp processor to my highly modified tube DAC within my Pioneer Elite DVD player. Believe me, that is saying something!

These are significant upgrades in quality and make for a beautiful, heavy duty audiophile quality device. I do have some of the previous version available at special prices. Call 626-826-9819 for details.

Enjoy The Music's website just came out with a review on these upgraded Bybee products. It's quite hard to believe that Jack Bybee could actually make these remarkable purifiers any better. Hey Mike, any upgrades for someone with 21 classic Bybee's? I'd do 2 fur 1??? Regards, Robin

Hey Mark,

I'll second Robin's questions about trade-ins.  I was an early adopter of your in-line speaker purifiers.  Also, do you have any pictures of your new products and how do they compare with the Jack's products in terms of construction?  His products are considerably more expensive...

Thanks,
Beez

     Beez, go to the review link posted by Wolfy, there are some good pictures of Jack Bybee's new products. I especially like the speaker filters as they're not nearly as clumsy as his old offerings. I just received the new slipstream RCA for my subwoofer cable Mike, it has taken the place of 2 old Bybee inlines and my bass rose 2 DB! MUCH tighter bass now, I ever would have thought it possible to improve apon 2 Bybee inlines together, except for maybe 2 slipstream Bybee RCA's inline. Now there's a thought? Regards, Robin

  You have 21 something Bybees? why the ramaining "1"? Are this inline finished products or Quantum Purifiers. I would be interested in grabing these from you if they are the raw purifiers used for installation within products. I go through about 26 of these a month inside amplifier modifications.
  I also modified Enjoythemusic's very own Wayne Donnelly's (Senior Editor) Jolida 202A which also contain a large number of Bybee purifiers and I didn't want to send it back to him it sounded so smooth. I can only imagine how good cryotweaks' units sound. Maybe I will pick up a few pieces for my personal reference system. I am aleady a firm beleiver in the technology.

[cryotweaks]

Hey guys,

The effects of the new Slipstreams are just as dramatic as with the previous Bybees.  The main difference seems to be that they seem to allow more dynamics through, as well as better HFs.  I think they are worth it.

I will offer full value for the speaker adaptors on trade-up, try to find your receipts though.  I will be able to look your purchase up if you can't, but its a pain.

For the raw devices, they are best gotten rid of on AudiogoN.

Mike

                                    Sorry Bill, I was making my comments in jest. All my Bybee's are in cables, assorted adapters, and components. I just add them up. I wanted 1 more Bybee inline for my subwoofer as I had 2 Bolder Bybee inlines w/silver bullets on there before but did a 3 way trade for a Quantum Symphony Pro. When they were gone, I slipped a Z-Sleeve over the cable but it just wasn't the same. But now with that Slipstream RCA back on the sub cable with a Z-Sleeve covering it, major bass butt is being kicked! As far as trading my Bybee Ultra Speaker filters Mike, they were bought used on A'gon so I guess that leaves me out. My only real point here is that these Slipstream Bybee's are THAT much better so's to make one WANT to upgrade. I wasn't seriously thinking that I could. (much) Regards, Robin

Umm, Robin, his name's not Mark,   it's Mike.

I only met the man once (quite briefly), and I'd remembered that. And I haven't even bought anything from him yet...

                                               Mike Garner, I know that. I got Mark Hampton of Zcable on my mind. I just pulled the trigger and bought 3 Z-Sleeve Ultra's for >$900. I got the name Mark imprinted on my brain! I'll change it, thanks Bubba. Oh ya, Beez started the Mark thing, go give him some BS!  Regards, Robin

Actually Beez didn't start it, you did! Check the second post in this thread...

[satfrat]

Ok,Ok, gimme the BS, I earned it but do me a favor Bubba and stick a Slipstream Bybee in it, would ya? Regards, Robin

The new Slipstream Purifiers cannot handle the current requirements of full range speaker outputs.

Mike,

Any idea why Wayne (of The Bolder Cable Company) would say such a thing (this was in comparison to the Bybee "Large Purifiers"), and if there is any validity behind it? If this is a question better suited for Jack Bybee, any idea of an email contact address. TIA!

[cryotweaks]

I'm awaiting an answer from JB.  Jack uses the small devices in his speaker chargers (99% sure), and makes no mention of current limitation there.

[satfrat]

Maybe Wayne W. could offer up an explanation for his Slipstream statement that tends to differ from that of the original Bybee's? It's a curious statemet to be sure. Regards, Robin

[cryotweaks]

I have heard it from others too.  Perhaps JB said someting to him or others that I didn't receive.    It could change my product lineup a wee bit.

This is taken from an e-mail that Jack Bybee sent out to his OEM's on 1/21/04

Apparently my e-mail of two days ago, announcing the availability of a limited quantity of the new-generation small Slipstream Quantum Purifiers, was confusing to some of you.  So here is some additional information that I hope will clarify your understanding of these new products.  

The Slipstream Quantum Purifiers represent a combination of the rare earth metal oxide technology of the original devices with carbon fiber materials.  Internally they are composed of nanotubes, which are much smaller than a human hair. by incorporating a great many nanotubes in each device, they are able to handle the same amount of current as the original Small Quantum Purifiers that you are all familiar with: 4.3 amps. The important difference is that the signal purification capabilities of the new Slipstream Quantum Purifiers are superior to their predecessors.  For that reason, my intention is to replace the familiar small purifiers with these superior devices, as soon as I am assured of a steady supply of the raw materials from the vendor.  

TheSlipstream Quantum Purifiers do not replace the familiar Large Quantum Purifiers, which are still needed for higher-current (up to 15 amps).  The large devices will continue to be offered to resellers for OEM, modification and DIY applications.  

I hope this explanation will clear up any confusion about the nature and applications of the small Slipstream Quantum Purifiers.  If not, please contact me with any further questions.  

Best regards,
Jack Bybee

The following information is taken from his spec and prices document that he sent out 2/4/04:

BYBEE QUANTUM PURIFIER DESCRIPTIONS

All Quantum Purifiers are cryogenically treated to enhance performance.

Large Quantum Purifiers (typically used in AC applications, and with
loudspeaker transducers) are specially shielded using ERS Stealth carbon fiber
material:
Length: 2 inches
Diameter: 1/2 inch
Leads: one inch, 14 gauge copper
Current-handling: 15 A
Voltage: >1000 V
Resistance: 0.025 ohm

Small Slipstream Quantum Purifiers (typically used in lower-current AC
circuits, non-AC analog and digital circuits, and smaller midrange drivers and tweeters):
Length: one inch
Diameter: 1/3 inch
Leads: one inch, 18 gauge copper
Current-handling: 4.3 A
Voltage: >1000 V
Resistance: 0.025 ohm

Small SILVER Slipstream Quantum Purifiers (especially effective in DIGITAL circuits, inputs and outputs):
Length: one inch
Diameter: 1/3 inch
Leads: one inch, 18 gauge silver
Current-handling: 4.3 A
Voltage: >1000 V
Resistance: 0.025 ohm

[Sa-dono]

Thanks for the info Wayne!

[cryotweaks]

I am a bit embarassed to admit...

Straight from the horses mouth, below:

..."Mike, it really boils down to current-handling.  The small Slipstreams, copper or silver leads, are safe up to 4.3 amps.  That is probably adequate for many larger drivers, especially in high-sensitivity loudspeakers. Being conservative, I prefer to use the large purifiers--15 amp rating--which will take virtually anything from any amplifier.  I do not warranty the Slipstreams used with woofers, so proceed at your own risk". ..

That being said, I have used them with no trouble so far on my Focal 11" drivers driven by 350 watts.  I don't think I would recommend that (meaning proceed at your own risk) after reading Wayne's post and JB's email.  I would have no problem using them on drivers up to 8".

My site is being updated to reflect this.

[dm]

power = (current^2) * (resistance)

So the smaller bybee's could handle....

(4.3A)*(4.3A)*(8ohm) = 150 watts

This of course assumes that a speakers load can be approximated as 8 ohms and that the load vs frequency is not significantly different.

does that sound right?
