No, cables and power cords are not filtering AC noise. They are oft shielded against external noise of the RF variety but any noise on the AC comes right in along with the audio signal. I am not making this up and I didn’t invent reality. Not to mention there are other types of noise from many sources including the noise coming right through the windows and noise generated by microprocessors as well as magnetic fields. I don’t use cables or power cords personally so I actually don’t have a dog in this fight. But I do know there’s no substitute for Signal to Noise + Distortion Ratio.
Brave man, McGowan...

Brave for sure. This will alienate a bunch of people. All cable haters and snake oilers. Very risky business for Paul to post this in public forum.

If I were Paul McGowan the experiment for me would be to "daisy chain" lets say 5 of those P20 regenerators together. First one into the wall and the next one into its output etc etc. He certainly has a bunch of them and they test them all prior to leaving the factory. Speaking of space/time...........I wonder what type of power cables they use at CERN on the particle accelerator/smasher. They are certainly dealing variations of the infinite. |

Why, are you afraid I will point out the lack of details in his post, no mention of if or how many times they swapped back and forth the cables to validate the change, that I will suggest the P20 wasn't doing its job or perhaps that the P20 has some fundamental issues exacerbated by load cables, that I will predict this "experiment" will never be repeated in a forum/method that allows us common folk to validate the results, or that I will point out that I don't actually mention power cables in my posts, but do mention heavy feeds from your breaker panel .... or all of the above? More likely I wouldn't have posted at all in this thread, but since you felt the need, for whatever reason to bring up my name .... dill949 posts11-09-2019 10:16pmLet's hope atdavid doesn't find this thread ... 😎 |
