Four LessLoss products praised in new press review: "Best I heard"


Dear esteemed Customers,

Today we see horrific conflict in Europe. For LessLoss, this is in our vicinity. This writing, and our production, is coming to you 650 km distanced from Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. Our audiophile aspirations are of course to achieve a silent background to enjoy the culture of sound and music; in some circumstances silence is of course the worst possible aspiration. Let us continue to build, and to support those who wish to continue to build, in spite of the brutality of destruction displayed in our midst. At times like this it is difficult to promote the successful achievements of a small company; however we continue to do what we do well, as everyone should engage in what they do best, as long as it adds to the cultural achievement that humanity is capable of.


LessLoss


Another great review

A new review of several LessLoss Products has been published on Enjoythemusic.com.


LessLoss

LessLoss products reviewed:

Entropic Process Firewall 640X
Entropic Process Firewall for Loudspeakers
Entropic Process C-MARC™ power cable
Bindbreaker equipment feet


Here is some of what the reviewer had to say:

“improvements were pretty much qualitatively consistent among the entire group of LessLoss products.”

“definitely give the Entropic power cord consideration.”

“Entropic Firewall 640X provided a more significant quantitative improvement”

“Firewall for Loudspeakers and Entropic Firewall 640X: the combination of the two was better than either one alone. Synergy.”

“Firewall for Loudspeakers and Entropic Firewall 640X and the Entropic C-MARC power cord: better still.”

“becomes obvious once you recognize that it's missing. And this is the key to these products.”

“It wasn't until I removed them that I recognized the noise and distortion they had removed. Once I was tuned it at this level, I could then easily recognize their contributions on a relatively quick A/B comparison. In a way, it was just an extension of the process of becoming an audiophile — learning how to listen, but at a higher level than before.”

“The removal of noise, more obvious in the treble, but effectively throughout, allowed more inner detail to emerge from the now blacker background.”


LessLoss

“improved transparency”

“Without the LessLoss the music had a certain low level of what I'll call "wild behavior". These were micro flashes tone bleaching out, or amplifier clipping or ringing or notes smearing — tiny little distortions, similar to what many recognize as "grain" that reminded me that I was listening to electrically reproduced music, not the real thing.”

“These micro distortions can be somewhat exciting at times, such as the striking of a cymbal, and somewhat distracting at other times as I "struggle" to interpret what a musical note or a syllable "should" have sounded like.”

“this "struggle" takes mental energy and it tenses up the body.”

“The LessLoss works against that "struggle" by removing a layer of haze, making the music and lyrics more obvious. Micro-dynamics and nuance of tonality appear that were unheard of before. My body relaxed and absorbed the music as it came to me, rather than forcing me to lean into the music. The difficult lyrics were more easily understood.”

“On my compilation CD I have many signifiers; phrases of words or notes that are challenging for a system to reproduce and challenging for me to hear clearly or cognitively comprehend. With only these few pieces of LessLoss gear in the system, I sailed right through these rough spots, and in most cases, they were the best I had ever heard them.”

“strips out noise without interfering with tonal quality or dynamics”


LessLoss

“noise-free listening experience”

“I can testify that it does not interfere with tonal quality as my rig continued to sound the same in that regard, and dynamics seemed unimpeded, too.”

“it was very relaxing.”

“The Bindbreaker footers outperformed the MiG SX and I expect the current version with the dimpled bottom plate will yield an even higher resolution.”

“they [Bindbreakers] performed astonishingly well throughout the audible spectrum with my DAC.”

“the Bindbreaker may work best with solid-state gear, but you have to try it with your gear. When it works, it works very well.”

“my biggest gains were with the Entropic Firewall 640X and it worked best on the AC line directly feeding my DAC.”

“The 640X also worked very well on my preamp where the improvement was experienced with each of my sources.”

“keep in mind the forthcoming [LessLoss] power distributor with built-in Firewall 640X technology”

“the Firewall for Speakers made a relatively cost-effective contribution that benefited each of my sources.”


LessLoss

“do not make the mistake of thinking power cords are less significant than the main components in your system.”

“Sometimes we discover something we like that we didn't even know was an option or a benefit at the outset of our quest. This is what happened for me with the LessLoss gear reviewed here.”

“The emotional seductress was replaced by the silky voice of a polished jazz singer. Firmly planted in the 'here and now' of my listening chair, I relaxed and enjoyed the music, unencumbered by any personal emotional drama, just experiencing the beauty of the music. That's the essential difference LessLoss brings to the game. Relax and enjoy. And they do it as well, if not better than anyone else.”

“If that's your audiophile destination, I highly recommend you give LessLoss a listen. This Lithuanian company deserves a lot more recognition in the USA.”
