The SCE box is an amazing upgrade fpr the audio outputs of any standard (RCA jack) output of a cable tuner box. The standard tuners use crappy output stages that will require either a good preamp with a high impedence input OR a SCE HRS (harmonic recovery system) to come close to sounding as good as they potentially can. I don't listen to home theater, all I want is my Sony trinitron to sound great. Either I could buy a costly, cumbersome integrated amp and extra speakers or I could insert a SCE between the cable box and the audio inputs into the Sony. The high sounds become sparkly and clear, there is a major increase in intelligibility, music sounds more musical and dynamic, and the lower frequencies firm up and take on good definition. The SCE is a high impedence input buffer stage that takes the workload of driving the Sony's amplifier off the cable box's lightweight ICs. Considering its small size and exceptionally high parts quality, I can't imagine watching TV without it.
