Mains cables & recording studios
I was contacted recently by someone who was questioning whether our mains cables really do work. He stated that he'd worked in recording studios and claimed that they didn't spend money on mains cables so why should anybody else?
Well, my reaction was one of amusement, as it shows just how little this guy actually knows. Any work you do on the mains supply of your Hi-Fi equipment improves the sound quality. And by the same token if recording studios upgrade their mains - the quality of recordings will be better. I know studio managers and producers that know this and the recording studios they work at do use our cables: if he wants to find out from recording professionals whether our products really work he should contact Phil Taylor who is studio manager at David Gilmour Music: or Ken Nelson who produces Gomez and Coldplay.
Or maybe he should take a look at this article - working at the Astoria

Enthused by the practical science theory of thicker low impedence mains cables making hi-fi sound better, but not being able to afford the R.A. cables at the time, I set to and made my own cd to amp and amp to mains cable from the same solid core mains cable, which exists behind the wall socket in your house! The results? staggering improvement in bass and depth of sound stage. Although I would not presume to blanket anyone with a 'Dont try this at home warning'. Obviously if you don't really know what you're doing, you can make something dangerous. Remember If in doubt only trust Russ!

The first" HiFi " mains cables I ever made used standard Twin and Earth. They were much better than the standard mains cables but impractical because the solid cores are inflexible and break if subjected to much handling.It must be remembered that the earth wire is uninsulated. Twin and Earth is not approved for this use.
Check out my entry level mains cable, the PowerMax
yet the Coldplay CDs are some of the worst sounding ever!! no dynamic range!
