RE: Audience OHNO Au24 SE ICs and Speaker Cables.


Hi All,

I merely wanted to post my follow up on this topic, as I've finalized the voicing process of my entire system to the point where I'd care less about any other cables that might be read about or heard in the near future.

What took place to make me stop and appreciate what I already have was simply adding two different gauges of the current releases Synergistic Research UEF Red ( 12AWG ) and UEF Black ( 10AWG ) AC Cords into the system, where the Red is placed onto the DAC, and said Black version placed upon either of my three Integrated's as a means of seeing what rage results would be?.

Well all I can say is........., to my ears it was as if the dynamic flow of the notes themself had been glossed over by both the AC Cords these replaced, as I was now greeted by an nicer sense of spaciousness, attack, liveliness, decaying properties which were simply out of this world. Having followed several threads over on AudioGon about the SR UEF Black Fuses as well as the Reds, which in turn lead to several more on their power cords at different price points or levels, so here I'm will a UEF Black which was sitting underneath our wall unit for all of five months and not having been installed into the system until the Red came for the DAC yesterday........, yes I tend to wait awhile before placing items throughout the system, as I felt I was happy with what I had before......., yet am the type whom still believes in buying a few items here and there for future use.

In this regard........, it has only proven that I should've done this much much earlier on, as I've to say that as simple as my primary ICs and SCs have become cost wise........, just installing both power cords bought about a greater sense of volume, detailing once again which seems to bring about a more collective whole as it relates to things simply sounding more there-there, if any such thing exist in the real world as we know it?.

And while I know plenty of us tend to view cabling as a means of merely connecting ones components, I'm starting to seriously see them as components in themselves which when chosen with a little bit of common sense as it relates to synergy, as well as tonality, do in fact bring about remarkable changes to the point where either one loves how they've voiced their systems by ear, or not?. Truth be told.........., I've myself reached a point where I feel very little improvements can be made to " Mi-Fi " ( as it has after all been tuned to please my senses above anyone else's, correct? ) that it's time to get away from reading about newer types of designs with this or that type of advanced metallurgy found buried deep underground until now, or worst yet something borrowed from reverse engineering from parts found within a few miles from Area 51.

No......., as with my post this morning on the ELAC BS 403s, I've grown a lot in the last 3-8 years and now feel as if I've a better sense of feel and sound enough to know that........., the quest is over cable wise.

Now back to focusing my attention of the vital items which govern my system........, tubes and music. As always I'd like to thank those of you whom were willing to share your ideals and opinions on said matters, and can only pray that at some point you find yourself happy enough with your system!, where the constant pursuit of small variations in sonics become a thing of the past and you're able to enjoy your system as is?, as wasting funds can at times become a means of showing others our own uncertainties in how we judge sound, as opposed to what plays music......

Be well,
O_o scar
