Hi Guys
I posted an earlier message about my 2235 needing breaking in
some of my problems was in my crossover and the XBR cables
feeding the amp .they sound Ok .Now. but they still need break in time.
What this messge is mostly about I was on the computer and using
the extrnal Fire-Wire drive and thinking these cables must be
pretty good to pass digital and no crosstalk. I had some extra
(Fire-Wire 1394 ) cables so I checked it out and they have 2
Sets of twiisted and shielded wires. Plus 2 other unshielded and
surounded by another braided shield over all of them
plus having relative small gage wire.
So I figured they might make good audio cables .Ran down to Radio
Shack got some cheap RCA fittings and started soldering utilizing
the pair of shielded wires and not using the shield as ground.
With nothing else changed they sound real good and to my
ears the Bass has more definition ..
I have some (1394 ) cable left over so I will built another set for
the Thorens Turntable.
These seem to be the best sounding so far and I have tried all kinds
in the last 25 years . DIY and store bought "Super Cables "
Thanks
Anton
