Too busy enjoying the sound of ( almost ) real music to think about killing you !

did you check out the link with my anticable mod - for me, it help quite a bit. ( perhaps my modded anticables are better than ur new find ...

)

but I look forward to hearing your latest discovery ..

cheers

No but I have made a mental note to look for some tubing so I can try it too!

Where can we read more about the so-called Anticable?

Nuuk · 26th February 2007, 04:20 PM

How about their web site ?

Asen · 26th February 2007, 05:50 PM

Thanks. I thought you were discussing a DIY cable project.

mikelm · 26th February 2007, 06:52 PM

DIY version would be very easy

mikelm · 26th February 2007, 09:58 PM

You just need to source some enamelled copper wire, about 12 gauge,
cut to length, scrape off some insulation each end, connect plugs if u like plugs and that's about it.

I am busy with other DIY stuff so I opted to buy these leads.

cheers

Mike - do you still have your CAT5 cables handy? I am using the Anticables in parallel with my CAT5 cables! It is definietely improved.

Still haven't had a chance to get some pipe yet.

Will you slow down NUUK. I have just tried out the mag wire "anti-cable" Cant even get it burnt in and you are giving me even more options.

Initial impressions of the Mag are certainly good. I replaced a bi wire line of Cabletalk3 and Monster godnoswhat that had sounded good on my Electra amp but not too great on the "clone". I cant make my mind up on the bass it is detailed, but not sure whether it goes as low.

The balance is way better, but then I expected having identical runs to the tweeter and woofers would do that. I still have some experimenting to do. I had considered twisting the pairs of mag wire together, as much as anything to make things neat. Should I?
