    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    Those fuses indeed exhibit a preferred direction, and typically, one orientation tends to yield better sound quality. Interestingly, some users have reported that SR fuses can sound noticeably better, when installed with the "S" side pointing towards the inside. However, it's not impossible that...

    DC cables? Your recommendations?

    Well said Nenon. Thanks. Regarding my other question about the Silk sleeving Instead of Cotton or Teflon, if you don't mind, can you also copy a reply from a PM here ;-) Again, much appreciated @nenon

    DC cables? Your recommendations?

    @nenon may I also ask why you abandoned the shield for DC cables? JSSG360 Shield vs. Single Metal Braid: Shielding and braiding in audio cables can minimize interference and achieve a certain level of signal purity. Silk Instead of Cotton or Teflon: The choice of silk to influence capacitance...

    DC cables? Your recommendations?

    @flowcharts , using or modifying the cable in this way may compromise the intended design and potential sound quality benefits of the Ferrum Hypsos. In case someone is interested, I just noticed that Ghent does make a Hypsos PSU cable with the WEIPU connector. Weipu SF1210/P4(1/3-, 2/4+)...

    Network Acoustics new USB cable MUON2

    My pleasure! MUON2 seems to outshine in almost every way. But, it's really up to the user to decide if that fits what they're looking for in a USB cable. Just picture how handy it could be for an audiophile to have charts like these bundled with each cable.

    Hi Luca, Your comparison is truly inspiring. I've taken the liberty of sharing your chart here , and I've complemented it with a spider graph featuring your results on the Muon2.

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    I did remember since I wrote it ;-) As you did not specify what specifically you are looking for in a DC connector, here some things to consider. They both have contacts made of 24k gold-plated copper alloy. Elecaudio also has a version with tellurium plating. Viborg seems to handle thicker...

    DC cables? Your recommendations?

    Great result! Thanks for sharing. I read before (but did not try) that starquad DC cables can yield better results than twisted pair/biwire. Did you use shielded or unshielded Mundorf SGW 110? I find it interesting that you prefer copper sheath as outer wrap (instead of braided copper)? Did you...

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    Before considering any recommendations for (speaker? see above) footers, it's essential to ask yourself what your specific goals are. Are you seeking isolation from external vibrations, high-frequency damping, enhancing the casing's sound quality, reducing internal vibrations, or preventing the...
