EGM Audio Posted March 6, 2019 Author Posted March 6, 2019 11 hours ago, Sir Sanders Zingmore said: I’m interested in the testing. Are you able to share the results ? The Grey Series V2 Cable was tested on several systems within HiFi Shops, Audio Clubs, Audio Manufacturers and Audio enthusiasts. Systems/ Equipment we tested against were single source and amps within a price range between $500-$3,500 and complete systems of up to $10,000. We tested our cable against several cables ranging from the standard manufacturers supplied power cable to leading popular manufacturers (RRP $129-$650) cable. When tested against standard manufacturer supplied power cable, we had a notable difference with improved sound quality 100% of the time. When tested against power cables RRP $129-$400 price range we had a notable difference to slightly notable better sound quality with our cable being the preferred cable 100%. When tested against a series of cable in the RRP $400-$650 price range we were the preferred cable- our cable was either slightly better sounding or on par but a $550 difference in price. Notable difference feedback received ranged from lifting the mid-range woofer to notable difference in the back ground sound. It is important to note depending on the equipment/ systems used there will always be different results.
rantan Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 @EGM Audio If I may ask. During these tests, were the people informed of the cable changes? Thanks. 2

EGM Audio Blue Series V2 Power Cables is currently our most premium cable. (Grey Series is our entry level and our Red Series is Mid-Tier). It is a heavier gauge cable (12 AWG). During our testing we proved that the cable is suited best on Audio equipment that draws high current e.g. Power Amp & Mono Blocks to get optimal performance.

The Grey Series V2 Power Cable was not blind tested as it over preformed and exceeded expectations over the other power cable. It was designed for a price point of what we believe an entry level power cable should be and what is extremely affordable to all audiophiles.

My question was made in good faith with no hidden intent. Honestly. I am not, in any way, deriding your product and I have never sought to do so. My question was/is, on what basis was the cable tested and were people made aware at the testing that cables were named as they were changed? Thank you 1

The cable was not blind tested. End of story, thanks. More questions should be directed to the Sponsor, by PM, where I'm sure they'll be happy to discuss with you. 5
Gremrock Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 Would you do these in custom lengths? When I get set back up somewhat properly later this year (hopefully this year anyway) I was planning to build a handful of leads ranging from 50cm to 1.5m, as I don't want a pile of excess lead hanging around behind the gear.

They have 0.5m, 1m, 1.5m.
Gremrock Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 I actually spotted that after I posted and I went looking. Probably want a bit more custom when I'm ready, but will see. Can always make my own if I have to, but for under $100 a lead its easier just to buy them lol

Which cable would you recommend for a network streamer and DAC? I'm assuming the blue series is best for pre/power amp?

Warwick Robson Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 G'day all. About 6 months ago, Mike Lenehan [the speaker and speaker cable magician] introduced me to the world of HiFi power cables via EGM Audio. He lent me some red series cables to try on my system. I went home and with skepticism plugged them in from my Nordost QB4 to my Prima Luma HP valve amp. I noticed a difference straight away. More definition and clarity, and this power cables was brand new out of the packet, not run in at all. I have since thrown all my cheap little power cables [ that always come with pricey components] away and replaced them all with EGM red series power cables. A huge improvement for such a small financial outlay. To me, It,s a no brainer. That was until last week, when I called in on Mike again. He showed me the brand new brown cable made by EGM audio. He asked me to take the sample cable home, give it a go and tell him what I thought. Well, after playing Earl Klugh, Janis Ian and Dire Straits, I phoned Mike up and to quote Darren 69, I said," Mike Lenehan, you're a bastard". Just when I thought that my system was about as good as it could get. Yes, the red series cables are fantastic, but the new brown ones [that I believe will be introduced at the HiFi show in Melbourne in October] are at another level again. Much more detail and clarity. If you're going to the Melbourne HiFi show, check these beauties out as well as Mike Lenehan's ML2 speakers and foilflex cables. You won't be sorry. BTW, my system consists of Rega P8 tt with the Aphita 2 mc cart, Rega aria phono stage, Prima Luma Dialogue Premium HP amp, with the Lenehan caps and resister upgrade, Rell T9 sub, Lenehan ML2 ref speakers and stands, Nordost power filter/powerboard, foilflex speaker cables and interconnects, EGM power cables and Quadraspire Evo4 HiFi rack. Do I love my system? Bloody oath I do. Cheers Warwick. PS. Sorry for the long winded rant!!!!
Suopermanni Posted August 5, 2019 Posted August 5, 2019 Well, that's interesting. Might give one a try.
