Swiss Digital Fuse Box Anyone?

Thank you for your response Luis! Just one more question, your Piggy tail is the extreme version?

No, the base one

It's nice to see that the availability of pig tail options has increased since this threads inception.

Think people are fishing them out Tom. I find that adapters are the route or go. May see if I can get LossLess to build a pigtail for me to experiment with. Top shelf kit.

That confuses things a little. The extreme (that I have) is supposed to be quite a bit better than the basic piggy. But I do believe adapters are the superior alternative. Thank you Luis.

Logically, adapters should be superior. Yet, I would be reluctant then to spend the money if I were you. All say that the extreme is a noticable improvement. I prefer the format of the adapter over the piggy tail, but reality is both are not ideal. If you do try the adapter, I will be very curious to know the difference in sound.

Well, if an adapter could match the sonics of the good cords on other end, we’d really be in business. At 50 hours in, the AS adapter is very good on the front end, although It’s way too early to compare with the Ext Piggy (which are being used with almost everything else). One thing, though, which I suspect won’t change, is that the adapter seems to have taken the warmth out of the system. Blame it on its rhodium connector? Experience tells me yes (same thing happened some years ago between outlet and regenerator with a cable having a Furutech rhodium end). TBD. Silver plating on the Piggys probably doesn't help either. In any case, thanks to LuisM and Tom for their exploration and intiative.

It’s only been about 10 hours, but I really like the sound with the $10 Amazon adapter. Will have to put the Piggy back in the next day or two to compare. But I think the adapter may be better, will probably have to try the AS adapters and look forward to reports from others who are trying them.
By the way, Mark told me the platting on the extreme piggy is silver.

Compare after so few hours?

Just an observation, not a final conclusions yet. Just surprising that the cheap adapter can sound so good.

Good. I ordered a pair to see what happens.

We are building three different adaptors to test against Piggy Extreme

Results in a few weeks

Thanks all

Cool deal, man! Very sweet.

Here you go https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BXKM314C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

I ordered a pair of these, and looking at their fine print -- manufacturer, etc. -- they are exactly the same as the $9.99 ones I tried and found muddled at 150 hours awhile back (Amazon credited me the return of the earlier pair but didn't have me send them back).

That’s to bad.
