Tchernov cables. Anyone knows anything about them?

I ran into them on youtube, they were used in Lamm/Wilson or Lamm/Kharma set-up, don't quite remember.
Now, Vladimir of Lamm and Lamm dealers would not use substandard cables. They sell in Europe and there is one distributor/dealer in Canada.

CEC player, this must've been years ago.
This is a little premature and just my speculation, but I think Peter Tchernov wants to prove that the idea of components dependent cabling is completely wrong. 55 hours on the Reference and counting. Unfortunately, I don't have his power cord to try - I am out of funds !

inna-


measure your progress by 100-hour increments. It is easier to track this way. Looking forward in reading over your review.

Happy Listening!

I usually do it like this : brand new, 50 hours, 150 hours, 230-250 hours. Purist Neptune improved slightly after that too, Tchernov Classic also just a little after 230 until 250, then I just removed it for now to put the Reference.

Not a bad way to burn-in cables/cords- inna.

190 hours. They sound less burnt-in that Classic did after 190 hours. I think, recommended 230 hours for all models is inaccurate, but I'll see. Reference has a complex dialectric, much more so than Classic, and I will run it for 275-300 hours before critical listening regardless of how it sounds at 230 hours mark.
