Re: Black Lion OMNI Modification any good???
You want to know the part that proves to me that it's 100% snake oil?
"Please note: Due to such high demand and because of our tight production schedule, we will charge a cancellation fee (30% of your down payment amount) if you cancel your appointment for modification once it has been scheduled." 1) I seriously doubt that 99% of us could hear any difference at all in this modification. 2) ridiculously overpriced for a fractional, if even noticeable, improvement. 3) IF they're in such demand, they shouldn't care less if you cancel your mod 'appointment' as they have seemingly hundreds of people lining up for their amazing mod. I've always been super skeptical about things like this. The Omni is a great device as is. No way what they're offering could be worth that much. |

Re: Black Lion OMNI Modification any good???
Sorry to say Tim, but ur way off. Of course ur entitled to ur opinion but I know for a sure fact, as well as many others that their talk is backed up, which is why they stay booked (wouldn't u think?) & how many complaints have u seen?..
But like I said, if u feel that way, fine by me :) Sent from Da GS3 On'eim...

I had an 003 modded by them, and the sonic difference was dramatic. I have a friend who has a modded 192, which he is extremely pleased with. I have several friends that have BL Micro clocks, and they're all pleased. As I said earlier, folks who've had this particular mod done will tell the tale on this particular mod, not those who think this, or speculate that, or think it'd be better to buy better bass traps. Black Lion is a successful business for a reason...they deliver great products.

I, on blind faith, bought http://www.blacklionaudio.com/content.php?p=39Black lion's EQ... I was/am extremely impressed with it. I didn't hear any thing on it before I bought it other than a short YouTube clip. I bought it because of my prior experience, & most of all their reputation & what they had to say about it...

Black Lion OMNI Modification any good???
As a former BLA modded 002, I agree. Their mods make a difference. Whether or not it's worth it is a personal decision. I thought the HD mod I had done was. And had the offered the higher level mods for the 002 console I would have considered it. However with support for the 002 being dropped soon I decided to move on. I'm glad I did.

Re: Black Lion OMNI Modification any good???
I'll chime in as i have the Microclock mkii from black lion. I guess this can be considered a semi mod.
Originally bought it for when i had the mbox 2 pro and mbox pro. Also tested it on my omni. It gave my vocal recordings a little bit more detail, depth and stereo width. Nothing radical but noticable. However after it suddenly started making a fizzing sound and smoke and liquid suddenly started coming out of it desember last year i quickly pulled out the power, scared it would explode or start a fire. A bad experience for shure! Also when i bought it about 3 years ago it did not come with any power. There is no description on the box so no way of knowing what power it takes. Had to email black lion to get the information. I se its on their website now. Well it wouldn't hurt putting that information on the box itself! I have not contacted black lion about this yet but i will as soon as i get the time. |
