| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I owned one level down from the top MIT Speaker and Interconnect (XLR) cables several years ago. The HFC are in another league IMHO. And the HFC I owned was the CT-E. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Hi Pete. It is my understand the HFC XLR Interconnect is a true XLR/balanced cable and not an RCA with XLR adapters. A few years ago Rick had some special XLR adapters built by Purist Audio that I used with two pairs of HFC RCA cables per channel ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Well, I ordered a MC-6 Hemisphere today. HFC are waiting on a couple of parts to arrive. So it will be about 10+/- days till it ships. That it includes the days for the parts to arrive, assembly and testing. Casey at HFC said he wants to give it a... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Pete, Thanks for the info. My I make a few suggestions.First, yes, please try taking the P10 out of the system (and allow some time for the Hemisphere to settle back in). I would be surprised if you did not find a gain in sound improvement. Not th... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Who here has the MC-6 Hemisphere and can you please compare it to any other power conditioner you have had.Thanks in advance. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz My bad. The XLR Interconnect is already up on the web site. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I am not sure about the Adapter but I know they have an XLR version of their interconnect cable available. Last I looked it was not up on the web site but when I spoke to Rick a few weeks ago he told me it is available. So just call and ask. PS Ri... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz 68pete and siddh, I would say for the most part yes. If there is no signal (but is still plugged in) for an extended period of time then it will need some play to sound its best. Though we are talking about small changes. Unless it is for a very l... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz It is not that it would not work. It is just that it would not work as well as what I mentioned.Ideally you would want to be as close to the connection/outlet as possible.By using a long power cord you are that much further away. The adapter bring... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz In my opinion (and Rick's) it is not the way to go. Just go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a three outlet industrial plug. Single to triple. Below are some examples. http://www.lowes.com/LowesProductComparisionCmd?catalogId=10051&langId=-1&... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Pete, thanks for the feedback.Just a thought on your last comment.Perhaps it is your amp needing to reach its operating temp that you are hearing. Even though it is in standby it may need to be"on" to reach its peak. Of course I am guessing becaus... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz So how about we move on. I have a question for those of you who have used both the MC- 6 Hemisphere and the MC-6 Power Distributor. Can you please describe the difference in sound between the two. And what you use/used them with.Also, what power ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I do not think the "burn-in effect" is lost for the most part. But it needs to be directly connected to the finale system. With the HFC products they need to be connected in ones system over a period of time so that its technology can work in a "s... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz John, my I make a recommendation about trying the MC-0.5's in your system.I found when I demoed them in my system (they were a pair of loaners so had plenty of time on them) when first inserted I experienced something similar to what you heard. I ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Ozzy, as I said in an earlier post, you DO NOT have to dilute the Stabilant 22. Also a little goes a LONG way. I have used it very several years now, from Ricks recommendation and that is what he recommended as to its use. |
