  • Barry Rudolph - Mix Engineer Rod Stewart, The Corrs

    "... a versatile, utilitarian device great to have at the ready or permanently installed in your studio as I have done... Big fat, clear sound was easily achieved."


  • Joan L. T. - Mix Engineer Santa Rita Records, Barcelona

    "It's true that I have other options for output transformers... I've
    found that Bus Driver adds more clarity, more definition in the treble
    than my Trident Series 80."

  • Surinder Sandhu - Classical Composer Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra

    “The Bus Driver output transformers help to tuck peaks in, saturating them in a tasteful transparent way, and make everything sound louder and more balanced.“
