Pressure relief...



The plugs may be tight but as the cable is heavy, there is a slight sag if you leave the cable dangling....

I have to use 2 wooden blocks, 1 of which is a chess seed, to support the plug at the end....

Neat and tidy it became....

Cheers..!

drop one

interestingly the jap version of the acrolink webpage shows that the 7N-A2070 has been discontinued......

so far there's no news of any replacement.....

will the 7N-D5000 remains as the only non-Mexcel series 7N signal cable???

i find the A2070 to be priced reasonably for the level of performance and while the D5000 is good, it's getting near to expensive....

let's hope there will be good news about a new cable....

expensive sausage....



by now acoustic revive audio accessories are tested and proven by to be effective in making music systems sound better.... even though not everyone understands how and why they work, it no longer matters ..... so long it works we are all satisfied......

the sausage-looking RAS-14 is their latest product for their legion of fans...... however, the price alone might deter many from even asking about it.....

i am one of these people ..... for i fear that i cant hold back after hearing its effects........

better stay away while i can .......

tough nut....

there's a used pair of Acrolink Mexcel interconnects available for sale in local audio forums .......

at S$3000, the target audience is limited....... so will anyone bite???

it seems like it can be tough to sell the truly high-end stuff.....

Too narrow 2

It's been confirmed....

The biggie acrolink RCA plugs are too big for the adcom preamplifier....

Haha ok I shall look at 6N copper cables for now.....

Too narrow

I have a strong feeling that the huge RCA plugs on the higher end acrolink cables can't fit between the narrow connectors on my preamplifier ....

So?

Even if I have the $$$$ to buy them, I can't use these cables at all...!!!???

kimber PBJ

many years ago i had kimber PBJ interconnects and 4TC speaker cables in my system....

they were cheap and cheerful products that sounded very good, especially at the prices back then..... if i could recall. a metre of PBJ terminated with kimber ultraplate RCA plugs was less than S$100......

it was much later when i decided to replace the kimbers with silver sonic cables...... all bcos of my old friend who loaned me a set to try......

the original BL-1 interconnects and T-14 speaker cables were not leaps and bounds better but the slight improvements were still enough to induce me to swop....

anyway it is gratifying to know that there are still people who heartily recommends the PBJ ... follow the link to see what this malaysian blogger has to say...


no doubt i agree that the PBJ interconnect cable is a true high-end product...... caveat? it may be too honest for its own good......
