The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
Now if you had $10000 to spend then you would invest in a pure class A amplifier(s) that is capable of doubling the output power as the load impedance gets halved and a pure linear preamp that has a constant gain through its operating range and ha... 
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
I use two pairs of the 8tc to connect my monoblocks (actually a pair of stereo amps) to the speakers and use their interconnect cables as well. I once had a chance to try their very thick top of the line speaker cables (select?) on my system and f... 
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
I was going to make a separate thread about the magic dielectric bias system but decided not to. I'm aware that there are similar magic fairy lamps used in the cable selling industry - MPC Network Box etc.. as one member stated they could simply u... 
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
PVC and PETE have different dielectric constants that affect the properties of the cables between the two PETE has a lower Dk so absorbs less electric charge consequently it's a better insulating material for audio cables. (the other way around fo...

maybe this isn't the forum for you. ASR is always looking for new talent.  Thanks.  
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
The website makes all these unverified pseudo science claims that go against basic established science/engineering principles in cable/wire electronics. Of course no lab data nor mathematical formulation. That’s what people do when selling snake o...

mclinnguy 236 posts 02-25-2024 at 04:23pm  Well if I had the best amplifier in the world, and matched it with the finest speakers in the world, I would probably just use lamp cord too.  This is the power cable I use. I'm not affi...

Burn your power cables in PROPERLY with Haglabs Frycorder
"Engineering must be based on the scientific method, and in these products, science is being disregarded." Exactly! Science and its engineering applications are all based on measurements. How do possibly power cables burn-in? Customer feedback? T... 
Power cable Advice...
You got me all wrong. It took me almost 6 months to build my own monoblocks using the finest components possible Probably the finest power amplifier in the world (very "subjective" i know). Pure classA 200w/8ohm/channel, 400w/4ohm, each block weig... 
Streaming for Dummies
"an inexpensive streamer… but it’s not going to sound like a good one. I seem to always end up,with all components (streamer, DAC, phono stage, preamp… ) around the same investment level in the end." So true... those are key audio components and ...
