Gotta admit that's a good one, out of curiosity have you ran a reverse configuration with the Flavor 4 and the AC-12? |
These are really fantastic cables, the Ac-10 in my system is just breath taking in it's presentation and i can't wait to try the Ac-12, as they seem to out do each other by good leaps and bounds. Those I've talked to to on other forums all seem to to confirm this. If it out does the Ac-10 you guys really need to try this Cable, yeah !! the the Ac-10 is that good! |
I agree, it seems to free up the music on all levels not showing favortism to any one frequecy dynamics are great,it puts music into a prespective very differnt than what i was use to. |
Your dead on in your veiw of the cable changing right before your ears, My Ac-10 has 280hrs of play time but as soon as it hit 270 hrs something very spescial happened the sound stage became emence details that where buried deep where effortless and at 282 hrs its still giving up more unheard sound, I had thought the 300 hr breakin was to much , but its dead on, I may pick up a Ac-12 down the road but the Ac-10 once broken in is a hella good buy! |
It's going to take at least 270hrs to bloom and it will, leave it untouched try not to move it! I know what your saying my AC-10 had some fits aruond this point as well at 150hrs it should snap out of it, about 170hrs new details should start to emerge and from there it will continue to amaze! |
Glad to hear it Desalvo55,from hear on out it will just keep on rewarding you, until your past your personal knowledge of what your system is capable of, as you can tell I really love my AC-10, and salavate at the thought of my next upgrade to the Ac-12 and PPP! p.s keep me posted on the continual revelation. |
I'll second the PS Audio Power Port Premier,it's Sheer bliss, for even better sound dove tail your PPP with the Soloist Premier if its in your buget. |
I dont think people know how good these are, I look forward to placing one on my power conditioning and source for now it's wonderous on my Amp, funny how at 300 hrs it just settles into place my Ac-10 still improved up to 350hrs of play time, if you decided to change your othter PC's Keep us posted on the results I've heard the results from doing so is beyond belief as they work in tandum! |

Just part of the breakin now your almost home,what i like to do at this point is to listen to favorite tracks. From now till the end it will begin to open up and transparency is not the word, details will fill out and nuaunce as well and over all stability post back to update us and if you can calculate the hours its been in your system, it was a minimum of 270-300 for mine to breakin but at 270 it made me sit up and take notice that something was special about this cable. What piece of gear is it on? |
Sorry, needed to clarify that I meant the weight of the overall sound of the music, image and bass and soundstage with the AC-10 on the amp.in physical weight the Statement is heavier but not by much. Hope this is what you meant if not disregaurd! |
I recently switched my AC-10 to my Quintet and put my Statement Sc on my amp and find it nice. sources use all AC-3's this setup provides the best overall performance but I do miss the added weight on the amp from the AC-10.The plan is to get an AC-12 for the amp or Quintet but for now I'm pleased. |
I still have mine in my setup for every reason you described, I picked up another AC12 about 3yrs ago and last year decided to try Shunyata Venom NR HC and Delta NR HC both went back as the AC12 still preformed better in my setup. The only todate I found plays on the same field is the Clarity Cable Vortex but I'm not parting with the Perfect wave cables and It's been 10yrs ! |
