Anticables


Does anyone have any experience with Anticables products? I spent over $600 on a pair of honestly cheap-looking ICs from them and after 400 or so hours burning them in I'm hard-pressed to tell the difference between them and an old set of no name ICs built from pro cable stock and heavy metal RCA connectors.

For all I know they are made out of regular bulk copper spools in a plastic sheath and wrapped in a Slinky.

You just got  copper and a larger gauge. You could have done with less $$$.
Now, bypass the fuse on your planar, it's free, and you will get even more impressive improvement.

Well I have to agree: my opinion is not scientific fact. really, I had no idea.
The new Reduced Dislocation Density (RDD™) Wire provides:

An increased sense of volume
More "real" sounding midrange
Less grain noise
Even smoother highs (like driving on a newly blacktopped road)
More bass and better bass articulation
More exciting and involving
More bass and less grain noise? How can this happen, they have been able to reduce resistance? Decrease inductance, or both? How did they find out there’s more bass?
With every upgrades, there’s more bass. And lots of it for the dollar.

haha:
Sounds similar to every review of every audio component I have ever seen, heard or read about.... they forgot to add.. "lowers the noise floor" "raises the ceiling" "expands the soundstage"  think about it.. how often have you seen a truly "negative" review??  jus' sayin...

OP

Don't do that!

Paul and Judy run a reputable business, produce a quality, high value product, and provide outstanding customer service.  If it doesn't work in your system so be it.  Go another direction or seek more information about why their product isn't producing the result you desire.   Slamming a small US manufacturer who's only goal is to supply a quality, lower cost alternative to their ridiculously high priced competitors is irresponsible. While not qualifying as a 'scam', manufacturers who make  ICs, power cables, and speaker wire costing thousands and thousands of dollars per are more deserving of your scorn than AC. My #1 system is all Shunyata wire, #2 incorporates several AC products and they perform!  I've not hesitated switching cable back and forth with little or no sacrifice in musical enjoyment.  Curb your negativity before resorting to slander.  
Well I've been burning the 6.2s in almost non-stop.

I sent back the Teac and replaced it with an Emotiva A300. I know this amp isn't exactly the best amp in the world, but it certainly beats the little Teac. I'll run some comparisons on the speaker setup, and if nothing will hook up the Mjolnir 2 for listening with my Utopias.
I have experience with AntiCables.  The design eliminates a distortion that is produced typically by multi stranded cables in signal transfer.  There is a fuzzy quality that can be heard on systems that have enough transparency to unmask this effect.  I do not understand all the technical factors as an engineer can explain them, but when a signal is being transferred down a typical fine stranded cable all the fine cables that touch one another, suffer with a type of electronic jumping across from one strand to another.   Litz wire which has each fine strand insulated from one another eliminates this distortion.  AntiCable simply eliminates that particular type of distortion by only offering a single huge strand.  But?  In doing so, includes another kind of distortion, because a single strand that size has other issues as frequencies travel down the copper.  If I am not mistaken, certain frequencies travel closer to the outside surface than other frequencies. Fine strands will not have that kind of distortion.. Anti Cable eliminates definitely one type of distortion, but I found the leading edge of the sound to be blunted a bit.  If transparency is not there to begin with?  Then one may wonder what the big deal is about.
