What is your experience with legacy CH Acoustic cables?


I just purchased a full loom of legacy X10 CH Acoustic cables: 1.0 meter balanced IC, 1.0 meter single ended IC, 2 x 2.0 meter power cords, & 2.5 meter speaker cables.  I love them. I want to learn more.  How are they used in your system?   What did they replace?  Have you replaced them?  If so, with what?  Also, please reach out if you have any to sell.

I owned a CH Acoustics X-20 power cord some years ago, bought after demoing many other power cords.  I chose it because it was very open sounding -- extremely clear and fast sounding, about as far removed from a tone control as one can get.  I seem to recall it needs to be plugged directly into an outlet, not a power conditioner, to sound its best -- at least that is what Craig Hampel recommended. I ended up buying it to power my transport.  Once I sold that and replaced it with a Mac mini, I also sold the CH Acoustics power cord.

If you are looking to add warmth or for enhanced bass, CH Acoustics isn't a great choice.
