Russian press names DFPC "without peer"
July 2015, author: Alexander Chechelev
"The effect of using LessLoss DFPCs in our systems is so clear and palpable, that it frankly seems improbable."
"In most other cases, their impact on the sound is barely noticeable or ambiguous at best, but here no one had any doubts about the benefits of the use of these cables in the system." "Already during our very first listening session it became apparent that the improvement in sound quality covered all possible aspects - the stage depth, the clarity and articulation of the bass, the clear focus of various sound source images, etc." "Indeed, compared with traditional filtering circuits, one doesn't feel a loss of dynamics, and the rate of attack does not suffer." "The concept and implementation behind the LessLoss DFPC definitely works." "This is a rare case of competent implementation of the original technical solution. It really helps to improve the sound quality of the system." "Never before have any of us encountered power cords which were so effective that our entire jury was unanimously positive upon evaluation." DFPC Signature and Reference: Silent Cables with a Message
October, 2014, author: Werner Ero
As a matter of policy, Dutch audiophile print magazine Music Emotion only reviews gear distributed by official local Benelux distributors. On this occasion, they make an exception to their policy and feature a rare review of the DFPC Signature and Reference power cables, available directly from LessLoss.com.
"LessLoss products possess sonic characteristics that are clearly different and in some cases even better than most others." "They are very balanced and smooth, without tiring fake accents or exaggerated highs." "The first thing I was struck by was their unique nature compared to many others. Typically any such outstanding features would soon arouse my suspicion, but in this case it was an audible experience of positive technical characteristics." "Largely neutral, smooth and highly resolving, coupled with a large and well layered sound stage." "Both LessLoss cables featured a welcome black background and a structure of sound notably more stable than usual." "The very high information density (DFPC Reference) is one of the first things you will experience with these cables. The beauty is that in this case it doesn't come at the expense of dynamics, expression or liveliness compared to many conventional filtering solutions." "The Reference sounds more open, more refined in detail, somewhat more spacious and extremely well defined and delineated." "In direct comparison, the Signature sounds somewhat more closed in and has a somewhat darker timbre. The advantage here is that where the Reference offers extremely high resolving power, where it may be just too much, the Signature can fit just perfectly." "Considering their high performance, robust construction, tightly gripping plugs and very high standard of fit and finish, the pricing is relatively friendly. It's a healthy price / performance ratio." "Their approach and their ideas are indeed refreshing, unusual and professional. Add to this their no-nonsense marketing, excellent workmanship, and product quality, we can rejoice in this valuable addition to the market. Their price tag is remarkably attractive, and delivery is notably smooth and hassle free." "A must therefore for everyone who is in the market for really good power cables that not only offer high resolution, are 'honest,' tonally balanced and musical, but also provide an excellent means of protection from the effects of dirty power." High End News says DFPC Signature sets new standard

I did not believe that one could get that kind of sound just by using one measly power cable."
"Ordering the Signature power cable turned out to be one of the best moves I made during my 25 years of audiophile experience." "I think it is the only power cable at this price level that combines all of these virtues within one solution: speed (as fast as Nordost, but at the same time more relaxed), a beautiful midrange (better than my old Siltechs), excellent top end (better than any other power cable I have tested) and as quiet as the best power cables I have tested." "With the DFPC Signature you really achieve this synergy of smoothness, relaxedness, and even more vividness into the sound. Actually, not a hint of aggressiveness was noticed." "From all of the combinations, the Signature connected directly to the wall gave the best sonic results." "The DFPC Signature [direct to component] did remove even more noise, and the result was overall better resolution. The mid-band became very relaxed and pretty, the highs were the most natural I have heard with any other power cables, and gone was the aggressiveness some of the other 'fast' sounding power cables introduced to my system earlier." "...exceptional products that really help the serious audiophile achieve the best their systems are capable of." HiFi Pig magazine recommends the DFPC Signature

"The flexibility of the cable is fantastic."
"The upper registers had a quality of control that gripped me into the performance." "Ambient harmonics and dynamics were great." "The cable also seems to extract a certain magic from the ambiance of the recording, helping to give a natural nature and almost lifelike take on the music." "The cleanliness, pace and kick of those upper bass registers were fantastic." "Complexity of rhythm and structure is a key accomplishment of the LessLoss cables." "The LessLoss DFPC Signature power cables have a sonic signature of ease and stability; they open a window to individual portions of the music yet still remain locked on to the performance as a whole. The midrange has a sense of liquidity, the upper frequencies are fleshed out and controlled, with good insight into a layered performance and there's good extension to the bass leaving me to conclude that these are indeed an extremely well accomplished cable." "There is a wonderful sense of musicality as a whole and a great sense of connection to the music." "The cables look and feel great, are very well made, and you do feel that pride of ownership when you have one in your hand." "All in all I personally thoroughly enjoyed them and would recommend them for their natural ease of presentation, musical insight and build quality." Audio Excursions tests DFPC Signature with extreme headphone system

"The LessLoss DFPC power cables aren't warm, meaty, or colored in any way, shape or form. Nor are they bright, sterile, or top-heavy. In fact, they are extremely neutral and transparent."
"The LessLoss DFPC's were able to extract more detail and show the tiniest nuances in a recording, even through both the HE-500's and the LCD-2's." "The lower octaves were tighter, more accurate, and had an extremely fast transient response. The midrange wasn't forward or laid back, but sat right in line with the rest of the frequency band, and had extreme clarity and fantastic vocality presence, but wasn't edgy in anyway whatsoever." "The DFPC's were able to image very, very well." "I felt like instrumental separation was simply unparalleled, and imaging was spot on." pf (Positive-Feedback) magazine reviews the Blackbody and DFPC
June, 2013, author: Jeremy Kipnis
"The following depicts my personal experience with the Blackbodies over the course of one year. I did not want to rush publishing my observations because of the novel nature of the matter, and my initial cautious skepticism."
"Virtually grain-free presentation." "Expanded and explosive dynamics with intricate low level details." "Much more spacious sound staging with more stable and seemingly larger presentation size." "Increased focus and weight of imaging featuring correct tembral presentation." "Quieter background leading to a blacker black–perceivably longer reverb tails." "More visceral and palpable (sound "freed from the confines" of the electronics)." "The harmonic structure of instruments and the acoustic space itself all show a new (inter)related connection amongst themselves along with a wholeness of sonic presentation within the hall which was simply not audible before." "The sense of strain that was present above a certain volume level during playback of known materials is no longer as present." "Inner details of the recorded acoustic venue and the placement of individual instruments within that space has become vastly more solid and life-like, tangible and palpable." "In spite of hearing this performance many hundreds of times, I now find myself hearing YET NEW things I have never heard, before." "Inner harmonies are now clear during both the most massive and the most silent moments. And the degree to which the soundstage hangs free from the speakers is now palpable and visceral, very much the way the best analog discs and tapes sound!" "There is a new level of detail present in the playback, which has been completely obscured until now." "The tonal quality of the instruments (and even voices) became fuller in the bass registers, while the treble became both smoother and more open and extended." "The presentation exhibited a much greater degree of bloom with much tighter dynamics." "This made everything I played sound more realistic and less like listening to a recording." "I hear much more space being delineated along with great textural information about the individual instruments and the people playing them." "More explosive dynamics with wider soundstage dimensions and clearer anchoring of the individual acoustic elements within it. I would call the difference substantial!" "If your audio system has teeth and nails, then the DFPC power cords will deliver all the power and music, but remove the artificial bite and scratch that affect most every playback system." "Find some seriously hidden wonders that have been lurking behind the HF noise and distortion. It will wake up your entire system and make your music library sound new; they are that caliber of an investment." "Together, the Blackbody and DFPC power cord provide a reliable method of absorbing and deflecting both wire-bound and airborne electronic garbage from getting into your sound (and video) system; much for the better, as you will soon hear." "DFPCs and Blackbody units confer a progressively more focused, holographic, and dynamic sound." "Makes almost any priced system sound more like listening past the recording technology and feeling like you are listening to the real thing!" "The DFPC power cords strip away further grit, grain, hash, and haze from the sound, resulting in a far less electronic sounding stereophonic reproduction." "These two different approaches to EM field management and containment offer one of the few scientifically based audio (and video) tweaks to have crossed my path in my four plus decades as a professional audio engineer." "Highly recommended!" pf (Positive-Feedback) magazine reviews the DFPC Signature

"DFPC Signature inserted a sense of calm to the system that was quite a bit more than just ordinary."
"Most of the times that I have heard a component do that, however, it achieved said results by taming just about everything else too, thus whilst offering a benefit on one end, it introduced a new set of problems elsewhere. Apparently the DFPC Signature cables don't have that effect." "More dynamic, more palpable, more fantastic." "A more quiet background produced a more relaxed, more open sound while at the same time not adversely affecting any other musical patterns." "I was immediately struck by the newly discovered peace, calm, and calamity that I simply don't recall from previous listening sessions of this grand performance." "The price of each DFPC cable is still what I consider to be a bargain, given the auditory results it produces." "Ridiculously good performance that is absolutely a value add to your system." "I think investing in these power cables is at least as recommended as some sort of power filtration system." AVShowrooms.com publishes Video Review of LessLoss Cables

LessLoss DFPC Signature and Anchorwave Interconnects and Speaker Cables review

"The longer I listen to my system with the LessLoss cables in place, the more I realize that what I am hearing is not the result of a sound signature of these cables. This cannot possibly be so. It cannot be so because one cannot pinpoint the sound of the cables at all. What one can assert that one is not hearing is all that, pardon my language, crap, which always surrounds us. All the radio garbage from Wi-Fi transmitters, mobile phones, energy-saving light bulbs, and other so-called "advances of modern civilization." The listener is met with just clean pure sound, without the dirt and hash which we have now grown accustomed to hearing."
