Scott, you're putting the Aphex "Aural Exciter" and the BBE in the
same bucket. If he's talking about a "Sonic Maximizer it'll be the
BBE. I don't believe the BBE adds high order even harmonic
distortion, which is the Aphex's strategy. Unless you're saying
they're boosted as a result of the delays? I was under the impression
there wasn't any overlap between them. ?

No, they are both in the same category, in spite of the BBE marketing.
However, the distortion spectra is very different between the two, and you
might like one more than the other... I think the BBE is a little less
in-your-face about it than the Aphex.
