Has anyone tried one of the reflection power cables, I would be interested in what they thought? |
O.K. so nobody answered my question about the reflection power cable, so I saw one of them on audiogon and bought it. It took a couple hours to settle into my system but when everthing was warmed up I couldn't believe how good this power cable is. My speakers sounded much better after this cord was added, deeper and more detailed bass, a very sweet midrange, and the highs were detailed and smooth. The cord has a slight warm sound, which is perfect for my speakers (Tyler acoustic decade d1). It replaced a lessloss cord which is also a very nice cord but to my suprise the lessloss cord was not even close to the reflections performance. This is a very good power cable |
Yes good question Denon1, it was compaired to the original lessloss. |
The reflection power cable is now discontinued and the new power cord is called the infusion, looks a little fatter than the reflection, I would be interested if anyone had tried this cord yet, I have to of the reflection power cables and I have the reflection interconnects, all great products |
Hello Sutts, just wondering how do you like the SC's, I have two reflection PC's and one pair IC's and love the sound. Kent |
Ebm, stealth v10 is also over 5 grand for the interconnects, not really a fair comparison |
I would like to hear from people who have upgrade their reflection interconnects with the new refection v2. Did you notice any improvement with the new cable? |
I have the original reflection interconnects(great product). I have a pair of the new v2 version coming today. Can't wait to see the new website.
So Steve, are you making any new power cables? I have two of the original reflection power cables and like them very much. I will post my findings on the new v2 reflections in the near future |
Hi Steve, I am still waiting on the post office to deliver the cord. I guess I was not home to sign for it when they came by.
As far as Ebm is concerned, well he is a fanboy for stealth, which usually means much more money. |
Yes, I meant no disrespect to Ebm just having some fun with him. |
So I have had the new reflection v2 cables for about a week now and let my tell you these are some really great cables. If you like the original you will love the new version. Everything is improved in this new design. I am most impressed with the deeper bass and soundstage and also more inner details in the music. |
meanwhile, my cables are still breaking in but they are sounding fabulous. |
Hi Steve, I would say that I have about 50 hours on the cables so far. I have not had as much time to listen as I wanted because of work but I notice with each listening session that the sound improves.
Most impressive has been the bass I am now getting out of my speakers. Inner detail and the ability to have more detail in the music and also more relaxed at the same time is also what I hear from this cable. In my opinion the new version sounds totally different then the old reflection which is amazing considering the original reflection is very good cable also. |
I don't know about cheap connectors or anything like that but I can tell you that the new interconnects outperform many cables I have had in the past that were much more expensive, so if Steve can keep the cost down and still have an excellent cable then I am all for that. |
Hi Steve, just to clarify, I was just responding to audiolabryinth, I think your cables are great |
I have a reflection xlr coming in the mail soon and it will be replacing a very nice cable that I have had for a few years. Judging from the sound of the new reflectionv2 rca that I have I am confident that this new xlr will be a fowards move for my system. I will post details later. |
Well I picked up the gabriel gold xlr yesterday and had a short listening session last night. All I can say is wow, these are some really nice cables, and they are not even broken in.
The cables replaced a set of purist audio xlr that I have loved for years but those will now be going to a friends system. I find the gabriel golds to be a little better in the bass and soundstage. The highs are about the same, maybe a little more detail in the gabriel gold, but I know from experience that these babies will get better with a few hundred hours on them |
Just to update, both cables are broken in now and my system sounds awesome. Some much more natural and smooth and the soundstage is now much wider and deeper. Imaging is incredible and overall music is just much better than before. I love these cables |
Amperidian, glad to see you like the gg cables. I love them in my system. I also have to of the older gg power cables which are very good. I here that Steve has a new power cable that is even better but have not seen much info. about it. Not looking to change any cables for a while. |
That is pretty cool. I have 3 sets of reflection interconnects and they are some of the best price to performance interconnects I have tried. |
