Fitz Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I can't imagine going back to unwieldy commercial cables. I can wrap my cables around two fingers and they weigh next to nothing. Yeah, well I can wrap my cables around one finger. And they won't give you cancer like the ones made by that SuckItALO guy.

Aura Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Done per request FTGDMFW. Regarding cables, all I can say is I bought my Heartland Cables RCA's ($30) over a year ago for my first amp, and they've yet to leave my rig. The only reason I'm considering getting a new pair of speaker cables is because I want/need bananas on both ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aardvark baguette Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I'm thinking of trying some of the Emm Labs cables. Whatever the hell they're called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopstretch Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 IsoPath? Simple. A cable connects two different components, right? Problem is, different components invariably have differing ground potentials. Power up these components and an error current is generated in the ground return path. Since this path is close to the signal conductor, an electrical coupling occurs. Between what? The error current and the audio signal. Not good. Why? It pollutes the audio signal. Trouble is, this is exactly what happens in every coaxial and twisted pair audio cable we Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvark baguette Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 yeah, thats it. It sounds like they thought out the dielectric part, at least. Of course I don't know what the hell any of it means, but it sounds slightly less b.s. encrusted than alot of other cables. That and they seem to go for neutrality, rather than romance, which is more inline with my thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvark baguette Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Speaking of Emm Labs, anyone hear the new Dac2 yet? Its existence completely slipped my mind until earlier today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonShine Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 i took pity and let you out of jail a little early. Thanks man. Was going through withdrawals. Much longer and I would have maybe got some work done or had a conversation w/ my wife or something equally horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopstretch Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I just swapped out a 50 cent USB cable for a $50 one. It's definitely moar purpler. Other than that ... hard to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
