I believe it is a fault of all DSP radios that they amplify the HARMONICS of a
sound too much. In our earlier days before DSP,
radio amplifiers tended to amplify only the fundamental of a sound and not the
partials (harmonics 2,3,4,5,6 etc.) Forgive me if this
doesn't seem clear. I am piano
meter.
Please forgive my probably poor explanation.

There is a complete K-line offered for sale on ebay, for a
ridiculously low price. I checked into it and it is a scam,
eBay removed the auction which was posted to try to get your money by bidding
or sending money directly to someone. It was a item too good to be true (or too
cheap to be true in this case). He never had a K line. These people place these
kind of false auctions trying to catch those less
