Here's a link to a .wav recording of my system, SW1X Audio Designs LPU III Balanced Phono Stage with A PranaWire Level III Interceptor attached going to an SW1X Audio Designs PRE III Special with a Level I Interceptor attached. Lotus Group Granada Loudspeaker, SMc Audio amp and all PranaWire...
Here is the PranaWire Ground Vault at Audio Exotics, Hong Kong, Paul McCartney, 'Yesterday'.. I believe that two Interceptors are attached to the speakers as well, but they are not visible.
One Interceptor will raise the quality of a system in a unique way: It feels as if each instrument is released to vibrate more freely in its own space and express itself more fully. Overall polish is improved. As you add more, that improvement increases.
Philippe Perot of PHP Audio says this...
Thanks for this question. The interceptors are designed to be connected to one device only. The pure silver wire is connected directly to the internal pure silver ground plane, which we call the Super Enhanced Ground Plane due to its multi layered noise absorbing construction. As you go up in...

Thank you, Mike.
"It never stops" is either a blessing or a curse, I suppose, depending on your point of view. I love seeing the evolution, discovering what more is hidden in bits and grooves.
Gaining a "significant" improvement in a system that is already replete with grounding devices might...

If my experience with the London is anything to go by then finding the exact right positioning should make the speakers disappear entirely. I have only heard good things about the Son.
Thank you very much for your description. We exhibited with the London at the California Audio Show in September (www.lotusgroupusa.com) using SW1X Audio Designs tube equipment and PranaWire cabling. I found the London in to be spectacular loudspeaker. A friend of mine walked in the room and...

Here’s my take on recording and listening to High End systems via YouTube:
I record using Dolby On software on my iPhone 6s (I know, a dinosaur) with a Shure MV88 Microphone on a tripod at the listening position. I output the unmodified, pure wave file to Adobe Audition, where I convert it to...
There are many ways to skin a cat, but in the end it is down the sum total of the final build, each part chosen, their location, associated materials and how they interact and balance each other. That’s the artfulness of it.
Yes, 6V6 tubes are not particularly linear in pentode mode but connecting them in triode mode is a different story. SW1X would never use them as pentodes.
All of the pentodes EL84 or 6V6 they employ are always triode strapped. 6V6 tubes have amazing sound and driving capabilities and are...

The more highly resolving the system, the bigger differences smaller improvements can yield. DACs, along with every other piece in the system rely on the overall context of room, cables, isolation, etc. The insertion of a new component can illuminate what the context provides as well as showing...
