In response of me mentioned the Synopsis cable above and over the years, since at “My Playback” page I mentioned the Synopsis I got a number of emails asking what the hell this mysterious cable is and why if it is so good it never made the inflames A...

[quote user="rowuk"]We really do not need reports of voodoo or a last wet dream. If you want to be taken seriously, describe the test procedure and outcome of each test. What does „better bass“ mean in this context? [/quote]Rowukif you have Pure Powe...

Recently I was playing with my horns, running with across my room, trying to hit with them my Cat…. When I settled down at the place when I need them to be I one more time faced a problem of cables. Whoever use multi-channel systems and do milliampin...

Sounds like your non-cable digital experience is similar to mine. My own transport is "1st generation", non-oversampling for a targeted reason, as is my DAC.Back to cable:I'd bet that many people would regard the Synapse cab...

Well, I decided it was time to start using some "proper" interconnects between the preamp and DSET's, ordered them and had them delivered. To date I had been using cheap interconnects from the local electronic shop (literally $6) which should be ok...

friday we had a good test , we use Roon Labs software.tone was very similar in both CEC and Berkeley but i am not sure about our system tone resolution because we connected a push-pull amplifier to 2way living voice speaker.in our test Berkeley was g...

Something fun to think about is that the length of this sort of cable can change the sound, due to internal "reflections", this sort of thing. I've read a lot about it, as it affects the "communications industry", and laboratories, and it gives me he...

Moved Reply to the linked thread:[quote user="glaesemann"]In the past you've referred to current loading in the context of cable length. I recently experienced this when I experimented with moving my amps. I needed to increase the IC length from 1 me...

[quote user="Paul S"]Alex, I "invented" and built my own power cables from scratch, using sleeved, solid, 12AWG Cu magnet wire, as I explained to Jarek, way up this thread. If buying pre-fab cables, I would first consider Speltz. As for "oiling" the ...

I think if you use Pure Power 3000+ it is better to use shorter power cables (2m is very good) . the bass and attacks are better with shorter Power cables.
you should not have any ground loop in your system if you use Pure Power 3000+. it is v...

Did anyone read the "Letter" from the firm's Guiding Light?According to him, "Quantum Tunneling" in this case is subjecting constructed cables/circuits to a 2,000,000 volt HF pulse/modulation for "an exact duration of time", a process that enhances e...

Rich,I have been experimenting with true Litz magnet wire (we use it in our transformers occaisionally) and have discovered that you can use discreete amounts of plastic dielectric material, spaced down the length of the wire, to "tune" the dynamic c...

[quote user="slack key"]I know that speaker position and room acoustics are important. I use a laser to align the speakers, room treatments, hallographs, crystals, ionizer, Z-sleeves, bybee filters, etc. I also have power conditioners, installed de...

Looks like this cable thread is about cables for FM (a particular FM set-up, actually...). And why not, since a given cable will certainly affect the sound we get from our systems according to how we use it? Even the "professional reviewers" unders...

Romy,Try wrapping a copper wire around a power cable, then "inject" it into the power line through an isolation transformer. The wrapping only to help defeat the antenna event of other signal sources that only have one vector.et all,For cables, the m...

I sound as moronic as it could be but I found myself straggling with new thing. I am experimenting now with a new AD/DA processor in my system and to my big surprise my addiction to the Synopsis digital cables is nailing me down.
As now I have 4 AES...

Here are my notes on adapters. I am not an engineer so I do not have further explanations readily available but could probably dig them out.1) It is physically impossible to make an RCA male or female with an impedance of 75 Ohms, so all digital RCA ...

Yes, the last cap of power supply much be on the side of load as it shell have a short path to ground. Without it you will have “less bass”, more crosstalk in case it is a stereo amp with single PS and a few other negative things.
With cables is mor...

Glad to hear you finally went and did IT! Now let's see (hear) how buffered per-channel level-set resistance works with the per-channel curves, and how easy this is to tune and integrate per total (stereo) side. It seems like this pretty much "has t...

Probably not very many people in your own exact situation, but the last time I had "dedicated" LF I tried a lot of then-available cables and wound up with... 12 Gauge Romex, with cheap, tinned-copper spade lugs soldered on the ends. Stiff and a PITA ...

Unfortunately, the industry is going down not because of "the massive scam that has been perpetrated on the general public". On the contraly, one of the reason it's going down is that they lacked the effort to spread "the massive scam" outside ...

Tim, the cable loading is not what I meant. Purist does like higher current across the cable but which cable does not love it? Dave Clark described very well some of the aspect of usability of POD cables (like disturbance). Some of them he left out. ...

Almost all such hum finds its way into your audio signal path through a ground loop, although it is technically possible for AC 50/60 cycle hum to enter from adjacent unshielded power cables. Make sure the AC cable to the phono is well shielded and i...

Yes, the similarity between the horn system and the Baba-Jaga hut on fowl's legs is uncanny. The system might be only loosely based on text book principles, but did you notice the use of cotton isolated wire connecting the speaker syst...

[quote user="glaesemann"]I think we know why Purist does not send out refill kits. For the same reason HP and Canon do not send out ink refill kits. [/quote] You are incorrect. Diminus comes with lifetime warranty and Purist refill own cables for fre...

Years ago i was testing various signal and speaker cables and wire configurations (as many did). Various gauges, shielded co-axials as well as single and multiple strands in various shapes/relations between signal and ground. My conclusion was that a...

Amir, here is a link to "the same" (same appearance, "specs" and information) SPDIF cable I got years ago (for maybe $200). It replaced the Belkin Synapse after the last round of "factory upgrades" to my iDAT DAC. Prior to those DAC "upgrades", I pr...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Still the key is to treat the cables, all cables that go into tuner and into the processors. Do not forget that you have a perfect loop: tuner goes to preamp, as in the same time tuner goes to A/D-DAW-D/A- preamp. So, you...

Got the AES/EBU to S/PDIF adaptor and it turned out to work very nice. I do not have “audiophile-approved” better AES/EBU cables but among those cables that I have the S/PDIF Synapses + the adaptor sound more interesting then the native AES/EBU + non...
