Hi, I've purchased power cords and power conditioning products from Brian at Artistic Audio, the Ensemble importer/dealer in SoCal you are talking about, as well as used Ensemble digital cables (2) and a set of Ensemble Megaflux speaker cable from Audiogon. All these products are excellent, in my opinion, though I'm no expert in power conditioning stuff, the only power upgrade I had previously done was dedicated circuits in my listening room. There are occasionally some used Ensemble for sale on audiogon, and Brian offers great prices on the new stuff. Start out w/something small and if you like it try some more. I think the stuff is great and reasonably priced even new.
Ensemble Cables? Anyone Use them?
I've recently noticed several dealers "pushing" the Ensemble line of cables and interconnects. Specifically the MegaFlux (highest end) line. When I say "pushing" I don't mean it in a negative way. I just mean they are REALLY enthusiastic about it.
The dealers have informed me that the Ensemble MegaFlux is SO good, it is replacing the highest grade Kimber Select and others in many systems.
The MegaFlux retails for $1400 and change for an 8' run compared to the Kimber which is apparently over 7,000 bucks (I don't know actual price because I haven't priced it).
Hopefully some of you have had experience with this cable and manufacturer. If so.. Please tell what YOU think. How does this Ensemble cable to other cables you've tried?
