C-MARC RCA unbalanced signal cable, stereo pair

Date Added: 02/22/2021 by Tobias, Germany
After some extensive listening time with the C-MARC RCA cable, I thought I‘d give you some feedback on what I’m hearing.

I’m using the cable to connect a Chord electronics DAC (Hugo TT2/M-Scaler) to the (extremely resolving) RAAL Sr1a headphones driven by the matching amplifier from RAAL (HSA-1b), listening mostly to acoustic music, particularly opera, Lied, piano and strings, Jazz and singer-songwriters of all kinds. I own a number of pricey high-end cables, which I use for comparisons.

After a week or so, the sound with the C-MARC cable started opening up quite spectacularly. First off, it appeared somewhat muddled to my ears, darker than I‘m used to, and I assumed that what I was hearing must be a tonal change to the unnatural. I heard „more bass“, but also „less highs“. However, after another week of extensive listening, and after comparisons with other cables (some considerably more expensive), I came to the opposite conclusion: I have never heard such natural sound through my personal audio. Rather than making the sound „darker“, the cable seems to take away artificial sounds that other cables sometimes add, leaving more of the actual music. Instead, there’s slightly more space around the instruments and voices. In my ears, this leads to clarity and precision without any hint of sharpness, while also sounding „fuller“ compared to some of the other cables (e.g. a silver cable of mine that is also very clear but seems to slightly diminish the natural reverberation of acoustic instruments).

This effect became particularly evident to me with solo strings instruments, which to me have been borderline unlistenable on highly resolving equipment. Now I can actually enjoy solo cello or violin recordings without any fatiguing effects; sometimes, with good recordings, it even feels like actually being at the recording or concert venue. Looking back at my first impressions, it seems that I used to mistake sharpness for precision or clarity, effectively expecting a different sound from my Hifi than from live concerts (burn-in might have played a role, too; and perhaps the fit with my rig is particularly great, I haven‘t tried it in other combinations). In any case, it feels good to go back to natural :-;

In short, the cable delivered on my expectations and more. Based on this experience, I‘m now thinking about experimenting with your other products, too.

C-MARC Classic Power Cable

Date Added: 02/24/2021 by Philippe Plumecocq, France
The Entropic Process is quite something, as there has been no drop whatsoever in quality whereas my power and speaker cables (Heimdall 2) had been in the system for well over 18 months, possibly two years... And the sound is getting lusher by the day! Quite an achievement from you and your team, please share my congratulations to all.

Firewall Module

Date Added: 03/09/2021 
[LessLoss power distributor with onboard Firewall technology and C-MARC Entropic Process Hookup wire throughout]

I got the new conditioner/distributor today, 6 outlets.
Replaced my conditioner, one that took a long time to find which was in my
opinion the best.

I took a risk, but a calculated one, first, every product from LessLoss that
I tried was WOOW, second, a friend of mine has a LessLoss conditioner.

This conditioner is outstanding, a dream of every audiophile, clean power
with a passive conditioner, without all the disadvantages of an active conditioner.

Well done, again!

Firewall Module

Date Added: 03/16/2021 by Chi Ng
Just added the speaker firewall in my system last week. For the first 24 hours sounded much quieter in noise than before, but at the same time sounded slightly muted and rolled off.

However after 2 days of on and off playing, the system simply blossomed. The soundstage is wider than it has ever been. My system was faster and also had much more noticeable detail then before. The improvement in my opinion is better than a component upgrade.

I am a purist audiophile. Was very sceptical about adding extra pieces of wire into the system. But after hearing the speaker firewall in my system, i cant live without them.

C-MARC Classic loudspeaker cable, stereo pair

Replaced "Black Box" cables costing twice as much and being half as efficient in transporting my vintage Sound Labs to a new level.

Firewall for Speakers replaced "black box" speaker filters costing twice as much and, after break-in, made my vintage Sound Lab speakers BLOSSOM to new heights and a never before attained enjoyment of my system.

Firewall Module

Date Added: 04/06/2021 by Jeff
The 640X is amazing. It is on my transport the place where your filters have had the least impact in the past compared to power amp and powered woofers. It is MUCH more transparent with a much lower noise floor and increased space and depth. Increased tonality as well. These changes pale in comparison to the sense of musical expression it allows-even with distortion and poor tone ie Woodstock Live it feels like the performers are in front of you blasting away. The micro-dynamics become macro-dynamics as the singer gains both nuance and dynamic power. Artistic intent to the max! Cannot wait to hear these on my power components.

I received the FW 640x. Thanks for the super fast shipping.

It is better than the 64x, for sure. Well done! Better on every dimension, resolution and musicality!

Delivery of my order had been perfect. After a very limited listening time I am convinced that upgrading from 64x to 640x BRINGS a very substantial improvement in the musicality of my system. Congratulations for this new success of LessLoss and a big thank to your team.

Firewall Module

Date Added: 04/23/2021 by Jörg Stanislawski
A few days ago i received the new 640 x Firewall module that replaces the 64 x that i used
for my power distributor that only supports the phono amp and my Mc step-up transformer.

I listened to three tracks with the 64 X Module and then installed the new 640 X.
Right away this resulted in a clearly audible sound improvement.

To describe it briefly, i don't want to use the usual phrases. It's like reading a book without glasses and everything is blurry. You put the glasses on and everything comes into focus,
or equivalent, like using a magnifying glass. With the upgrade program there’s no need to think twice to order one.

I don't want to devalue the 64 x module with this, it's a great product, but it's once again incredible that it can still get much better. I'm already looking forward to the upgrade of the c-marc module.
In the meantime, I've reached the point where I can blindly buy any new product from Lessloss if it meets my needs and fits my budget. Fantastic product, again.
