I am still waiting for someone's justification for making a comment "XYZ cables are no good". Dont know about the justification but the reason is explained here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll. Classic trolling behaviour In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts flame wars or intentionally upsets people on the Internet. This is typically done by posting inflammatory and digressive,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog), with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses[2] and normalizing tangential discussion.[3] This is typically for the troll's amusement, or to achieve a specific result such as disrupting a rival's online activities or manipulating a political process. Even so, Internet trolling can also be defined as purposefully causing confusion or harm to other users online, for no reason at all.[4] 1

It’s the only component with removable power cord at present... maybe that’s not such a bad thing? Thanks for the info fellas Just remember, cables make no difference what-so-ever.

It's passed now..... I think There's a reason I'm running high quality cables throughout my system, and different cables at different locations in the chain Edited May 28, 2021 by MattyW 3

075Congo Posted May 28, 2021 Posted May 28, 2021 Jerry Ramsey who has run Audio Magic (USA) since 1990 is the guy behind using "beeswax" in his audio fuses. Not big on mouse **** but his products have quite a following worldwide. Have a look at his website you'll find it interesting. 1
MattyW Posted May 28, 2021 Posted May 28, 2021 $225 US.... Might be a little much for me. I've just received my first Aucharm branded sterling silver fuses. About $8 a pair. I'll get around to trying them eventually. See if they make an audible difference in my system. If so I may go wild changing all my fuses.

In comparison to my Isotek it's like comparing a python to an earth worm in thickness...amazing heft! Which Isotek power cable were you comparing to the AliAccuphase power cable out of interest?
