Power Cords and Ethernet Cables

[Eli7]

I've had the opportunity to play with power cords and Ethernet cables over the last few months.
None of the Ethernet cables I tried convinced me, they were no better musically than my Blue Jeans Cat 6a.
It is similar with the power cords. However, there is a power cord, which surprises me. With these, everything literally clicks into place. The music suddenly makes a lot more sense. It's really amazing.
Until now, the original Linn power cord was the best fit. But now this.

The question I ask myself is:
Is this power cord really bette, or could it be that it just shows that the previous position of the speakers was not the best after all? My speakers have been in the same place for years and their position has been the best I could find.

What are your thoughts on this?

Incidentally, a very expensive Ethernet cable in conjunction with this power cord messes everything up again, the music disappears into the confusion again.

The questions I ask myself are as follows:
Is this power cord really better? Or could it be that it just shows that the previous position of the speakers was not the best after all?

What are your thoughts on this?

Is this secret power cord better? How would we know? We don’t know what it is!

You bring it as if you cannot believe it or afraid to go against the “Lejonklou” crowd.

Believe your ears and the experience

I myself play with all different cables since a year and I can truly and sincerely say that I never enjoyed my set more then I do now.
The blue jeans Ethernet is the only cable that survived.

Yes, a forum can only guide us. In the end we have to experiment and make up our own mind about what makes us happy. :-)

Hi 🙂...

I have tried many ethernet cables in different price ranges...
Also the Blue Jeans Cable cat 6a that you mention.

The cable that beats the others in my system is...
🔸Neotech NEET-1008 Silver.
It costs only 3500 Swedish money for 1m,.which is 308 euros.

Remember to give all cables "settle-time" before you listen critically,.there can be big differences after a few hours or more.

"Only" €308. And for the 3 m long version, which I believe is likely to sound better, it's "only" €722.

Can you describe what this cable does to the music from you system, Peder? And what is the system?

Hi Fredrik 🙂...

We are familiar with each other,.so I perceive your opening text as a bit "provocative".

I started my "Linn journey" in 1983 in December when I bought my first LP12,.and was schooled in the Tune-Dem method by the best.
Has since become quite well known throughout the decades for being good at installing and optimizing music-systems.

I always start from Tune-Dem,.and as I said, I am very familiar with the method.
I'll come back when I have time to write some more.
BUT Fredrik,.we both know Mats Persson at Classic Design Scandinavia, I have asked him to send you a "burn-in" Neotech NEET-1008 Silver ethernet cable so you can try it yourself.

As usual,.when it comes to "IT stuff" you have to try it in your own system, but this Neotech Silver has proven to work in most systems....
This does not mean that it works vs your products,.but it is reasonably priced for a very good ethernet cable (despite your slightly arrogant statement).

I have spoken to Mats Persson,.so contact him and he will send you a Neo Silver.

Have a good time Fredrik 🙂.
