Any exp. w/ Shunyata Dark Field Cable Elevators

I took a look at them and they look like very well cut out foam blocks. Now I do use Shunyata cables; speaker which I love, Interconnects which I really like, and power cables which look really cool and sound just as nice as my Audience PowerChords and only cost twice as much, (but look really cool). I do think the shunyata products are good but after seeing that these simple stamp cut foam blocks cost $25.00 each, I expected maybe 4 for $25, I am a little embarased at what I spent on the cables. Will I try them? Well for the money they ask I may try something more clever, like a magic clock. Sorry for the un-helpful reply, but, wow, $25 each!

Grant, I don't know what living the high life with Regis would be so I really cannot comment. Do I think that your company is actively out to rob people, of course not. Do I like your products, well Gemini speaker cables, Aries interconnects, Python and Tiapan VX powercords, Hydra 6, well I think I do. Do I think that sometimes we, ( the entire audiophile community) chase the Holy Grail, absolutely. Is there a benefit to these Dark Field Elevators, I don't know. I thought when I spent the extra for better cables I would get good clean energy to my system. It is a little disappointing to find out that my several thousand dollars worth of cables isn't enough and to get the real best out of my system I will need to spend more $$$. Will I need a Cable Elevator Isolator's at some point in the future to optomized my Elevator's?

I am sorry that I picked on your company, and I mean that sincerley. I think that Shunyata is one of the most researched, highest standard companies in the Audio Industry. I just get a little frustrated with the idea that I need to buy something new to really get the best out of my system and that no matter what I do, tomorrow I will need to do something more. So, with that being said, and with my foot planted firmly in my mouth, I will talk to my local shunyata dealer, order a full set of the Dark Field Elevators and put them in my system to try. I have been pleased with your companies products in the past and I perhaps should have thought of that prior to my snap reaction.

I must first apologize to Grant and the people of Shunyata, I am the bad guy. I usually don't make posts like I did initially but, My god $250 for twelve pieces of foam. Well, I did feel bad and ordered a set. My dealer would take them back if I didn't want to keep them, which I was sure would be the case. Well I was wrong. They are made of a foam that is quiet unlike what I assumed that they were. (What did someone once say about "Assume"). But they really were a nice upgrade. I will post a review as soon as I get back from a sudden trip but I will say this, I ordered a second set to complete all my cables. I think that they are a very reasonable upgrade to a system, improvements in clarity that exceed other upgrades I've made such as Stillpoints. But more later, I will post the details of my audition and experience when I get back. But again, my apologies to the folks at Shunyata, you created a fine product.

Adhaney, I have not used any other cable elevators or isolators with my current system. I did try some Music Direct ceramic with an older system in a very noisy building and noticed no benefit or musical loss but it was not a very fair trial.

I really like them. One of the nicest upgrades I have done. Seemed to make the most difference on speaker cables, then on the long run of interconnects from preamp to power amp. I think what they did most was remove a layer of noise that I was not aware of, increasing detail top to bottom, expanded sound stage and increased depth. I am usually very skeptical and have removed many devices becuase they did not make a real difference. The dark field elevators are definelty here to stay.
