Party at Rod's place!

Not exactly There was something wrong with one of the 7's. There's no power available to the LED circuitry so it's in the shop being investigated.

The amps are now up and running and adding the 7's, even though these are for the surrounds it made an immediate difference. There's much more weight and smoothness than I expected and better integration with my fronts which I also wasn't expecting.

I think this is probably once again an example of the sound differences between Class A and Class AB, like with my 28's the 7's are probably staying in the Class A region more often than the 6 was for a large portion of my listening and that's what I'm experiencing.

Whatever is going on I'm liking it There are of course some nice Siltech's feeding my 7's

Hi Rod.
Are all right?
I already have the RMii, RDC, Octopus Silver and Emperor ii. Although they are still on burning process the improvement is incredible. Now i need another RMii to my TAD C600 and i'm on NCF paranoic mode. Don't still you difference the two type of connectors?
Regards.

Unfortunately there's no way for me to swap the power cables on any piece of gear fast enough for me to be able to do a proper A/B. I didn't notice any performance increase, either visual or audio when I swapped out the standard Furutech FI-50 cable from my MC-12 to the FI-50 NCF. It's hard to draw any conclusions from that though.

I suppose if I had any mono music in theory I could connect one cable to say my left Bryston 28B and the other cable to my right 28B and compare the sound coming out of each speaker.

Given what in theory the NCF tech does I think the best test would be to compare the 2 in a system where noise on the power is easily heard and measureable. Unfortunately my power is relatively clean of interference.
