Jena cables The opinions about the Jena Labs Valkyre, really besting the Valhalla cables, are divided, but at least pricewise they come very close.When I set out on my cable quest, even $3000 for a pair of interconnects was kind of expensive and I was searchi... | |
Jena cables Since I am a audiophile myself first and foremost and not a cables salesman and since I have had the chance to listen to above mentioned cables, I think I can post my personal findings here.First of all, we need to make clear what line of cables w... | |
Can foam insulation jackets wrapped on cables harm May I mention that HMS cables is taking great care in engineering the skins of their cables. No static energy from the "outside" will ever penetrate their interconnects or speaker cables and thus degrade the sound.Christian Brouwerproud importer o... | |
Who has tried Virtual Dynamics cables? Erik, what cables in general do you use? I find the VD power cords can interact with the rest of the cables in a positive or sometimes not so positive way.Since I listend to the VD power cords with almost 50 brands of different interconnects and s... | |
Virtual Dynamics + Ensemble Power Cords- good mix I think I made it clear in my post, that I also own a personal system, for which I try to find the best cables possible.That does not necessarily mean, I will use my own cables. If I find better cables for my system I will use them, and write abou... | |
Virtual Dynamics + Ensemble Power Cords- good mix Your are right, as until today I am using the Ensemble-VD power cords mix. But I am waiting to get the new HMS power cords with build in power conditioner, to try for my personal system.Whichever cord will win, will stay in my personal system, sin... | |
Cable Direction Mr Strassner, the cable genius behind HMS cables says that it does make a whole lot of a difference.This guy is developing the measuremant banks and instruments in super conductor tests,(special super cooled conductors, who loose their electric re... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Marc, I have been using a cable burner for quite a while now (Audiodharma, made by Alan Kafton) to break in all the cables, before I send them out to my customers.Since I had chance to audition more than 50 different brands of cables, I can tell y... | |
Any feedback from HMS cable ? I know I have done some rather bold statements which I will not repeat here. Everybody interested, can judge for himself in his own system, with his own ears, if these statement are true or not.This is how it should be done all the time, regardles... | |
Any feedback from HMS cable ? I am the HMS guy, fatparrot. I am ready for the Nordost challenge. Actually one is already underway.A customer of mine will get a set of HMS speaker wires next week, so he has an all HMS system, versus an all Valhalla system. As soon as he is done... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Are there hi-res cables? I think there are cables with a high resolution factor. On Chesky's sytem test disk, there is one track called the high resolution test. Shakers in the background are supposed to sound differently with every shake performe... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Signal interference is the key word here. You are asking the wrong question!>>>My question stands. How is it that designer cables improve what goes into a recording via cheap generic cable? But this is just food for thought. I really don'... | |
Could you tell me about the accoustic satori I have listened to them, all even the famous Nordost Valhalla, which for me was the revelation, until I discovered HMS and its budget price. The Grand Finale is clearly up to par with the best cables, but for a much lower price. I will not hide th... | |
Seeking advice re: complex power conditioning What about using a something like a fuel-generator then?Wouldn't that work either if you had a 5KW generator? | |
Seeking advice re: complex power conditioning Karls, maybe I am stupid, but why do you need a motor- generator and a electric-generator. Wouldn't be a motor- generator, say 5KW, be enough?I probably do not get it, and since I played with this generator idea myself, would you mind explaining t... |
