Is this a system where you have two systems beating at the same rate and
they are supposed to cancel each other out?

I believe Burns Stainless has a collector joint that has this built into it.
They offer it in several configurations like 4 into 1 and 2 into 1.  Or am I
thinking of something totally different?
