I use his Freedom ethernet cable and have been very pleased and thus have no need to look elsewhere. Excellent cable at a modest price. If someone does a shootout with a crazy uber expensive cable, please let us know!

TWL is awesome. I have several of the early cables and they are the bomb. They add a natural timbre to any system... just a touch. And they are really affordable, that's the best part!

Pete is cool. I recently tried out his new prototype RCAs and they rocked my world! Very fast,natural sounding with excellent staging and extension on both ends.

TWL make great cables at surprisingly reasonable prices. I've been in this business a long time (>30yrs) and heard lots of high end cables from the likes of Kondo, Audio Note, Nordost, etc and the TWL cables are as good as any of them. Pete’s a really nice guy too, and great to work with.

Another welcome to Pete and TWL. I use his Obsession power cords on all my gear and am thrilled with what they contribute. Great cords!

Triode Wire Labs are fantastic sounding cables ...period.
Triode Wire Labs are the best price/ performance ratio I have ever experienced in an audio cable and I have been listening to a wide variety for decades.
IMHO they bring your system another step closer to “Real”.
Try them for yourself, Pete’s a great guy and you literally have nothing to lose.. look into it, you’ll be glad you did.

I love Pete’s cables! And what a great guy! Pete’s power cords were the first power cords to truly make a significant improvement in my system. I tried others but they really didn’t make a difference. I couldn’t believe it when the TWL cables immediately made a great improvement. I have PC’s, all manner of interconnects, speaker cables and usb cables from Pete. To me they just sound more real than all of the others I have used.

Pete's cables are neutral sounding, extremely well made with the highest quality parts, nice looking, reasonably affordable, and backed up by great customer service.

For Sure! Triode Wire Labs' (TWL) Cables are fantastic by any standard. I've migrated upward in Pete's offerings over the years as my system has improved. Performance is off the charts, build quality is second to none and Pete is such a great guy to do buisness with that I've never even thought of using any other power cable. I've recently tried a TWL Balanced Spirit II Interconnect with similarly great results. Highly recommended!

I agree. Pete is a wonderful guy and makes first class, quality cable. There has been posts on another thread (Taiko Extreme, La Creme de la Creme where Emile talks about issues with UTP ethernet and noise that can occur with some cables. I use Pete's Ethernet cables and have never heard any noise in my system. I reached out to him and asked about his ethernet cable....if its shielded and if it is connected

Here is his reply, which for me confirms Pete knows what he's talking about and makes great product

My "Freedom" ethernet cable is not shielded! There is a custom, non-standard lay for the cables instead of simple twisted pairs. The wire itself is the fastest (velocity of propagation) wire that I can find and it does not have individual foil shields. The foil makes for decreased leading edges at audio frequencies. Digital audio transmission has a low speed requirement in comparison to fast Ethernet or Gigabit requirements that are aimed at bulk data and video transmission. Foil shielding adds capacitance that causes audible ringing (jitter) that obscures low level detail. It is a time domain phenomena
