Picked up and 8ga cord from Pete last Friday night to put on my Classe' Twenty-five. I think Lissnr summed it up just right with simply saying WOW.
The whole system just sounds more relaxed and effortless. It's like the difference between an amateur musician who can play well but really has to work at it vs. a seasoned elite professional who just has the music kind of flow out of him.
If you take a look at the What are you listening to right now thread you'll see that last Sat night/Sun morning I was still up listening & posting @ 4AM - what does that tell you? (Outside of the fact that I'm nuts!)
In terms of a detailed rundown of what changed, I can't say I noticed anything in particular that the cable stood out as doing overly well but the total sound just had a big sense of "rightness" to it. (I always get nervous when any aspect of a component stands out as that much better than the other aspects as they usually get tiring over the long run.)
When I had the tour cable at my house I tried it on both my power amp and my CDP individually and got a nice improvement on both. Pete is in the process of making up a second cord for me. I can't wait t hear what they will sound like together.
Great job Pete. Lissnr is right, this ones a keeper.
