High Fidelity Cables MC 1-PRO


Just plugged it into my system yesterday. So it only has about 10 hours on it. First impressions The sound became more detailed in the mid range really opens up nice. (not harsh or lean). The base is tighter but not as deep as before. I experience the same base problem when i started breaking in High Fidelity MC 6 Hemisphere. The base with the Hemisphere took a long while, but came in great (Better than orginal) after it had 500 plus hours on it. So for now i am not worried about that. Since High Fidelity recommends about 400 hours before the MC 1 Pro settles in. The sound stage as a whole is much more defined feels sound like it has more energy, but it did shrink a little again i feel this will get better than it was with reaching the 400 hour mark. I am very happy with the over all sound my systems has since adding the MC 1-Pro and thinking about adding another one.
I did plug the MC 1-PRO in at the wall with my 21 MC 0.5s all on the same line that feeds the MC 6 Hemisphere. Which feeds my front end, TV and Sat. box. i all so have 6 MC 0.5 plugged into the Hemisphere. The Pro and the MC 0,5s sound very good together and a nice match up. Will report more as i get more time on the MC 1 PRO.

I've been told that one has to use the Pro in an active system for break-in to occur.
Good morning...

New to this forum, but not to HFC. I have 2 Reveal PC's, an Enhanced PC, a Hemisphere, 7-0.5's, and Reveal speaker cables. Will be buying an MC-1 Pro later this month. 

I was wanting to know if anyone has plugged an MC-1 Pro into their Hemisphere, and if so, the impressions....

I know the wall is MUCH better for 0.5's, but I am really wanting to put this in the Hemi on the same plug with my amp. 

Thoughts from you veterans??    
I don't have a Pro 1 but I own and use most other HFC higher end cables, 0.5's, MC-6 and Hemisphere. I would think the best place to plug in the Pro would be the wall outlet. I've been told it's somewhat different than the 0.5's and works best from the wall outlet. With that said there's absolutely nothing wrong with experimentation ;-)
The 2 MC 1 Pro’s that I have sure make the treble sound glassy.
I have maybe 190 hours on them just being plugged in. The actual music time is much less. Is this hardness expected during breakin?

Hello ozzy
The plug in time with not being used mean nothing. Its the playing time that you want and you need about 300 to 400 hours. They should settle down at that point. Yes they will not sound good for a while, but they come around.
