    Sablon Audio Reserva experience. Affordable S.O.T.A.

    My two Panatela Ethernet cables arrived, the long one to replaced AQ Vodka and the short one to replace Wireworld Platnium Starlight. Definitely an improvement on both those cables: a more balanced and fuller sound. I am impressed! Thank you Mark!

    DCS Vivaldi

    Question about the Vivaldi Clock: Does the power cable make a big difference for this device? I know for both my Vivaldi DAC and Network Bridge changing power cables made a huge difference in sound, but I'm not sure about the Clock.

    Power Cables, High current versions vs Regular?

    Some cable brands have High current models designed for amps and power hungry devices and Regular models for everything else. My question is, does this really make a difference or is this more of a marketing thing? Because some brands don't different between High and Low current and just...

    My friend wanted to support the power cable which was high on his desk so he added a whole bunch of extension shafts for his NCF Signal booster haha. The booster piece in the middle of the tower is for structural support as the legs get wobbly from the extreme height

    DCS Vivaldi

    Hi guys, I've had the Vivaldi DAC 2.0 with the Network Bridge for a few months now and I'm planning to get the Vivaldi Clock in the near future. If I already have the Network Bridge should I still consider getting the Upsampler? I understand that some of their functions overlap?

    Ahh thanks for the info guys. I was just worried I got the older version :P Here's the response I got from Transparent: XL digital cables were actually one of the first cables to feature Generation 5 technology and we have only made one version. A packaging and naming change was made when we...
