In the late-00s, I blogged extensively about the Nordost Blue Heaven, Red Dawn, Silver Screen, Valkyrja, Valhalla, and Odin lines. I did report on the use of Nordost's own VIDAR cable burn-in machine.
Over the years, I know I've written about various Tara Labs Prime, Vector, Decade, Air, and ISM products.
Let's not forget; some of the cables we've placed on the Cable Cooker had been in use for up to 21 years. Even with 21 years of use, those AQ, Cardas, Kimber, MIT, Wireworld, and XLO products were only operating at a fraction of their potential. Said potential can be unlocked/realized, with a proper cable burn-in device.
Hint: the old Kimber PowerKord, with the corrugated black plastic outer case/jacket, once you stick it for 4-6 days on the Cable Cooker, is a nice affordable match for Simaudio gear. In addition to the 820S, 750D, and Mind 180 I'm currently working on, we've used the old PowerKord on the 600i, Andromeda, Orbiter, Supernova, P-8, I-7, W-7, Neo 280D, Equinox, and other model numbers I can't remember.
I know, I know, my readers are complaining that I have not blogged much, lately. But I'm coaching girls basketball, which ends soon. After that, I may be able to spend some time on the homepage. Just click on the (A) after the "Luminator," and my AA profile will list my homepage.
