| Oyaide outlets FYI....Oyaide outlets were designed and built to accommodate 10-gauge solid-core wire.alan m. kaftonaudio excellence az | |
| Installing dedicated lines. Which cable to use? I've been recommending Diamond Handiwire for many years. It can be found at Ace Hardware in various boxed lengths (25', 50', 100'). Home Depot used to stock it, but no longer. They have a 10/2 and 12/2 (which is the more versatile), and in listeni... | |
| Oyaide outlets Seekburk....I always offer a no-sweat exchange if a customer wishes to change outlets. The point is to find what offers the best synergy, and provides the most satisfaction for you. I've even sent a second and different outlet for customers to try... | |
| Elevating line conditioners.... Firstly, it is apparent that earthborne vibrations affect *every* component, line conditioners included. It is also apparent (with some testing I've done over the last year or so) that footers and different platforms affect the performance of a li... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of QRT Symphony Pro? Tim....on this one I would definitely contact Bill at QRT. While I am an enthusiast proponent of cryogenic treatment, it would serve you best to ask him whether the process would in any way counteract what he is achieving. It may not be just treat... | |
| Purist or Kubala-which to buy for entire system To 711smilin....yes. To Drubin....there is nothing at risk.alan m. kaftonaudio excellence az | |
| Anyone tried Acrolink power cables from Japan ? Acrotec (now Acrolink) used to be imported by Arturo Manzano of Axiss Distribution. I don't know if the identical models are being made or sold today, but the emphasis on the highest-purity and build quality is still there. True 7-nines purity is ... | |
| Anyone tried Acrolink power cables from Japan ? Great detailed information, Albert. It's always refreshing to read such descriptive commentary (especially the fitting and ergonomic qualities), and I'm heartened to see you (also) recognize the vagueries of power delivery, by stating...."All soun... | |
| Anyone tried Acrolink power cables from Japan ? Albert......was it this cable? This is the only 'gray' cable that Acrolink makes.http://www.lotusgroupusa.com/7N-PC7100.htm | |
| Anyone tried Acrolink power cables from Japan ? Were those cables "stock", Albert? If so, I concur. However, fully-treated and conditioned units are a completely different animal, and offer far superior performance.alanaudio excellence az | |
| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Audiofeil, sorry....I was using the 'collective' we, and should have been more specific. As far as your point about "some cables", I felt more explanation was in order as to *why* those cables should not be Cooked, but there is also a solution wit... | |
| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Audiofeil....we should take the time to clarify things a bit more, for everyone's benefit. All-encompassing statements like "you shouldn't use it" do not explain the "why". Stealth cables, in particular the PGS and Indra, utilize extremely fine ga... | |
| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Essential, those 2 cable manufacturers are TG Audio (what a surprise....you're Bob's dealer!) and Cardas. What do they both have in common? Neither have ever used the Cable Cooker. Hmmmm.To be even more fair and open about this subject, there are ... | |
| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Ozzy....when you next speak to Bob, please inform him that the current output on the Cooker's low-level circuit (for interconnects) is 120 milliamperes continuous. That should give him something to digest and compute. Special step-down adaptors ca... | |
| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Glad to know you weren't badmouthing my product again. But Bob Grost, to my knowledge, hasn't used a Cooker either. That's neither here nor there, as his products look quite interesting, and more people are experiencing very good things with them.... |
