Bloody good stuff that. Some of my mains leads are made with it, and my filter is wired throughout with Furukawa (as Mark knows only too well)! :)

Nice one. What you gonna use it for, Alan - installing a mains spur, or building mains leads from it? :)

Just the one mains lead...for my power amp....I'm using the Shunyata..into the mains conditioner..and Merlin Silvermann labs clarity3 in the rest...My pal brought his Furukawa yesterday..and tried it in my power amp...and woooosh...but he'd put braiding on it...and couldn't remember what it was called..He did say Furukawa..but other people were telling me it is Oyaide cable...both correct of course..as Furukawa made the cable for Oyaide...I'll stop rambling on now..haha.

Oh yes it's good stuff but a beast to work with as Alan will find out :D

The cores striped out of the cable are good for internally rewiring a mains block, it does appear to be waste of all the screening and cable jacket to rip it to bits but very good cable cores.

Oh I know it's a bitch to work with, but BOY is it better than just about any other mains cable on the market - although that French stuff I picked up for buttons is also rather good! :eyebrows: ;)

Nice one, Alan. You're gonna love it, when you get the chance to relax to some music with it, for a period of time. It reveals details in the mix, and drives music along with such power and purpose, almost like nothing else I've heard. Shame that they've discontinued it! :)

Even better, I can assure you! I've got the 2.6 on my Copper amp, and it's stunning - but BOY is it a stiff and unwieldy fat trouser snake... :eyebrows:
