High Fidelity Cables MC-0.5 Effect

They ran out the first time last week and got more in stock. Hopefully, it'll happen again.

As for the placement, I used an open outlet socket to get the results I got. I'm lucky in that although I live in an apartment, my two outlets that serve my audio/video needs are the only two on that particular breaker.

Since I have only one available outlet left on a power strip, I was advised to just get a 2 or 3 way (t-shape) adaptor for the wall outlet, running two MC-0.5s on it and use the third on the power strip. It will all work out the same due to the proximity of the devices and the isolation of them as well.

All the best

I took a look and there's still some for sale if anyone's interested. 👍

Will try one, before I think of more.
Run out of plug space anyway.

Got my two B-stock units and tried just one on the same outlet as my integrated with the other on the outlet with the rest of my gear, including my SACD player, which I moved it to a few days before, and even that paid dividends (even more clarity).

Again, a big improvement in clarity and realism eliciting smiles all around. With that clarity comes instantaneous scaling of dynamics, as if something was applying the brakes just a tad (if not more). Adding another the next day, for a total of two (using a three outlet adaptor) on the integrated side was the real eye opener. 

Being early in the morning, I kept it low so as to not disturb the neighbors but I found myself lowering the volume even more to the point where I was listening 2-4db lower than my normal listening levels and still the dynamics and impact were astounding. 

It could be something like a chime or cymbal strike and it would come on as strong as a plucked base note or drum strike, even when done lightly. I'm talking real micro-dynamic improvements that equaled macro-dynamics like in real life situations.

Nothing comes out of virtual blackness anymore as sound abound, again, like in real life. One hears the recording venue and any ambience it contributes. The see-through and decay are amazing.

I've read on other threads where some members have 17-20 of these units in their systems and I can see why, although I won't be buying anymore as I've run out of outlets (unless I get another 3-way adaptor). 

In my limited experience with power conditioning, I still feel it's best to go directly into the wall and this has been strongly reinforced by my experience using these passive, magnetic, conditioners. At their B-stock pricing, they're a no-brainer.

All the best,

The MC O.5s are very addictive. I know because i have 49 of them in my simple system. I use 2 types of 3 to 1 splitters. The orange one that most people use and a green one that is "L" shaped. the MC O.5s caps face down ward to the floor when plugged into them. this keeps them from sticking out to far from the wall and into the room. Have not reached the point of diminish returns yet, every time i have add one the sound got better.
