Yup, sounds like a giggle, daftee, so just let me know when you fancy it!

I think these are rather special personally........

I met the M.D of Oyaide at the weekend, a very nice guy, top bloke as we say in Yorkshire, I gave him some samples of my plugs and cable for some reason!

The attention to detail that Oyaide pay is not well known, their gear is bordering on extraordinary, even the M.D of Nordost told me he thinks their stuff is the best!

Yes, those would be very good, too!

Hi Marco,

Almost everything I supply is customisable. Actually the cable I sent you was not the full XL specification. The SR5 power supply you have is the standard specification with the XLR DC connector on the chassis. Because of this I had to fit the standard XLR to the cable to allow you to use it. For the XL specification I fit a rather hefty industrial connector with a contact resistance of <1 milliohm. These connectors have precision machined pins and sockets, and the contact integrity is exceptional, and better than any XLR I have tried so far. When the case arrives for the SR7EHD I am preparing for you, I will fit the XL connector in parallel with the standard XLR and supply a full spec XL lead to fit the precision connector so you can compare for yourself. I am told the SR7EHDcases I have on order will be approximately 3 weeks before shipping and I will have everything else ready for their arrival so I should be able to ship by the end of October.

I also make an XL version of the SR7EHD power supply and this uses Teflon boards for the regulator circuitry with rolled copper foils (not electro-deposited copper), Vishay bulk foil resistors and Silmic II capacitors. This level of build quality does start getting expensive, especially with one off orders for the Teflon boards, so I only do these as custom orders for those who are not too concerned with cost.

It will be interesting to see how the power supplies and cable compare to David’s offerings once you get time for the bake off. Hopefully you will have the SR7EHD by then.

Regards
Paul

Hey, nice to see you around, Leo, and thanks.

Look out for more on the Caiman soon

Wow, Paul - I'm kind of lost for words!

Yer some man. All I can say is bring it on, dude, and let me know when everything is ready

Hi-Fi Collective sell PTFE insulated silver wire - it looks very like the wire used in this instance.

**Paul Hynes** · 29-09-2011, 10:36

Mark,

It's not HiFi Collective wire.

Paul

**YNWaN** · 29-09-2011, 10:40

No, I've just had a look at the Hi-Fi Collective cable - they do sell PTFE silver cable though (at a price).

Do you think there would be any benefit powering an AC motor?
