Just received a pair of klotz mc5000 interconnects off Brian of this parish that wee Scots laddy from Glasgow right off the bat they have a fuller sound and tighter bass and more detail than some vdh 102 mk2 I was using and Brian says they take 40 hours to run in my other interconnects sound flatter than a witches tit compared to these klotz got to be one of my best hifi bargain finds well chuffed :cool:

High praise indeed mate . I would love to take all the credit , but it is worth remembering that these cables were a collaboration of ideas from various AOS members :)

I would check with Steve and Richard on that one Pete . NEBO is primarily for the troops to assemble and listen to each others gear , not really for selling stuff .

The arrows should point away from the source Steven ( ie CD player to amp . Pre amp to power amp )
If you prefer them the other way round then that's OK too :D

Brian you could bring some to nebo anyway just for your kit and if anyone wanted to borrow them at the end of the night they could on a sale or return basis:D

They are being used between the Firebottle phono and pre the arrows are pointing away from the phono to the pre the decks into the Firebottle so I would presume this Is away from the source:D

brian2957
16-10-2015, 19:43
I understand what you're saying mate , but if the organizers allowed this it could potentially open up the floodgates and spoil what has become a great way for the guys to get together and hear each others gear without being battered with sales pitches . Best things are left the way they are I think . :)

Yes , that sounds right Steven , but as I said earlier whichever way sounds best to your ears is the best way round .

Brian Stevens leaving a table free for an audio jumble so people can buy sell or swap gear just a thought:D

Thanks for letting me know mate , I'll have a think about it :)

Yep, Steve has mentioned having a jumble table which I think is for personal sales rather than trade.

Having used Klotz AC110 in the past myself I'll be keen to hear them.

I'll take along some soundcords and super sound cords if anyone's interested in a comparison.

'Fun' - an abstract concept in this pastime.

Mrs B heard me chuckling at this and asked what I found amusing. Just a conversation about bits of wire I replied.

Sometimes I forget how odd we must look to the outside world

Most definitely, Rich. That's one I'm looking forward to, as indeed I am the Goldpoint vs. NVA passive. I've listened to SSCs before, and compared them with my MC5000s, so I know what they do here, therefore it'll be interesting to hear what the results are in a different system :)

My wife only worries when I spray a mouthful of coffee/tea at the screen, boys and their toys she says, boy? I wish.

I think its safe to say they are happier that we are playing with hi fi wires than plugging our wire into someone else!!!
