| 20a hc power cable need adaptor to use with my 15a equipment I compared the cheap ones with some $89 Voo-doos, the difference is enormous in favor of these. It was important to give them a long Burn-in period to obtain better results. Finally, I changed my 15A cables to Transparent XL 20A IEC-19. | |

| BLUESOUND NODE ISSUE I have an OPPO BDP-105 connected through its optical output to the Node 2i digital input using the 3.5mm tosh link adapter. The selection must be made with the BluOS application, with this it works perfectly for me. | |
| Wilson Audio Resistors I am grateful for your answers, I am aware of the differences but the sensitivity increase with the proposed change is only 0.25 db/watt at 1 meter distance. Anyway, I want to make sure that this procedure does not alter the useful life of the res... | |
| Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else I would like to contribute something positive here, I suggest trying some speaker cables that add more resolution and dynamism, I recommend Kimber Kable Carbon 18 XL or similar. It can also be Shunyata Alpha v2. |
