DFPC Series [Signature]

Your cables just keep getting better and better every hour. I can't stop listening. I might miss something. If I had know about your cords a year ago, I would have saved about 5000.00 in speakers and cables that I don't use or just gave away. I built two systems from other stuff I had left over from my rebuild.

I was about to change speakers again. I tried some power cords, and they where ok, but not what everyone was saying. At first I though it was me, because the change was not worth the money paying for something that I had to try to hear: a different or a change in sound. It was frustrating. Then I was about to try another power cord, which got a good review, and then I saw your DFPC while surfing. Waiting to pull the sting, I read some of your reviews and thought "Hey these sound good" and I have not looked back. The Mini were thrice as good as anything that I had tried. I had to try the Originals, and they blew the Mini away. Within the first hour, I knew that I had to have the Signature. And, man, there is nothing like them. They are so good that I don't have to look any more. They have taken my system to where it should be: very clean and sweet. Your power cords rank as the best add-on to my system. If I was asked what the one thing that I would keep, starting a new system, the answer would be the LessLoss cables. Thanks! The music is perfect.

what I find interesting about the dfpc original is not only does it sound fantastic, but when I listen to my music I simply melt into the music. I am a retired opera singer, when acoustic music is played in a large hall it produces a feeling which can't be explained. The dfpc has a balanced and warm feeling which makes me want to listen and listen. I find myself with stacks of cd's around my player.

I bought my first DFPC back in November 2009 and the person I got it from warned me that I would end up wanting to purchase more DFPC's for my system - he was right! I soon ordered up a second DFPC which I later traded up for a Signature. The LessLoss PC's are a very neutral sounding cable as they neither push the soundstage back nor forward nor are they dark or bright sounding. They also increase the silence 'heard' around performers which makes the music easier to follow and greatly contributes to the holographic presentation of sound reproduction. What is most surprising though is how much these cables contribute to the dynamic content of music. I was using a PS Audio Duet power conditioner which is not supposed to limit dynamics but when I plugged my cables straight into the wall, all of a sudden I started hearing dynamics in some of my CD's that I'd never heard before.

Both the Signature and Original DFPC's will be staying in my system for a long time and I can't recommend them highly enough!

One hour ago I received my DFPC Original cables from LessLoss. -- Thank you very much.

I have unpacked one cable immediately and exchanged the pc cable Nordost Vishnu / very expensive one - and the result was, straight from the beginning, on my little office hifi system, consisting of:

-- DENSEN DM 10 amp
-- THORENS CD PLAYER 2000
-- PHASE TECHNOLOGY CI IV Wall Speakers

The sound is unbelievably spread and open, bass is deeper and more controlled, midrange is fruitty, rich, with proportion weight, high freequency silk without unwanted sharpness or edgy. The overal sound is very ralaxing and MUSICAL.

Louis, my big big congratulation with the LessLoss DFPC Original power cable. Everything sounds like new, never heard before.
In a blind test I would say that one of components was exchanged to another - amps, speakers or cd player, but I never would have thought it's the power cable ONLY. It seems some brands like Nordost are absolutely overpriced compared to the LessLoss original. One more amazing thing is that the pc cable has only just played aprx. 45 minutes and it is not burnt in yet.

Wishing you a very nice weekend from frozen and snowy Poland. Thank you once again.

...as a cable junky I have had the opportunity to try many cables over the last 20+ years in this hobby/addiction...until very recently I held on to a belief that 'more expensive had to be better'..!!..then I took Mr. Motek up on his offer to try one of his lessloss DFPC 'signature' pcs...so much for my previously held beliefs....prior to my asking for a sample I had read a great deal about other audiophiles experiences with this pc and..as I think about it now..do not believe I read a single negative review or comment.if Mr. Motek was willing to send me a demo 'signature' pc..free of charge.. then who was I to turn down this opportunity to possibly increase the enjoyment I derive from my system...the first cable arrived and I quickly cooked it for 2 days on my audiodharma pro cable cooker. this after very briefly replacing the crystal cable 'ultra' pc on my meitner cdsa-se where I thought I might get the most benefit from the new cable...the only track I listened to was the first movement of beethoven's 5th symphony..vanska..and could immediately tell that something good was happening..but I needed to wait the 48 hrs to hear what the 'signature' could really sound like...long story short...the next time I inserted it in the same position what I heard amazed me..it was now multiple levels better. transparency improved. (much blacker background)...soundstage widened and deepened...the bass was fast and tight..better then before..vocal articulations and instrumental tonality improved....and complex musical passages,whether classical symphonic or rock, were now not instrumentally blurred but individually apparent...to say I was surprised would be an understatement...what I was hearing destroyed my previous theory regarding price/performance ratio...the rest of the story.....I have now replaced 2 other pcs..1 other cc 'ultra' and 1- jps 'aluminata' with the same ..additive findings...each addition building on the last...I will be demoing 2 more 'signature' pcs in the near future on my preamp..my guess is that they,too, will increase my enjoyment of the music I so love......my system is comprised of piega c-40 speakers...goldmund 29m amp....first sound paramount mkII series-3 preamp...meitner cdsa-sc player...worldpower 'powerwing' conditioner...and argento smr speaker and i/c cables...I might also add that Mr. Motek is in a very small group of owner-designers that I consider to be truely individually passionate about his products...he treats everyone as if he/she were his only customer...

With the LessLoss, music has snap and detail without sounding harsh. Delineation around all of the performers also increases making music easier to follow. All of this without the soundstage being pushed back (which is what my PS Audio cable does) or forward (which is what Virtual Dynamics cables do). I used to run all Virtual Dynamics cables until I heard the DFPC Original.

Listening to LessLoss cables is a very positive experience; dealing with LessLoss is just as positive if not more so. I had already been spreading the word about your cables after got my first one. Now I have more to tell my friends!

DFPC Series [Original]

Date Added: 01/22/2010 by Dmitry, St. Petersburg, Russia
Some time ago I decided to deal with my power issues. You see, I have very dirty mains. Not only it is dirty because it is a big apartment block, but I have about 10 switching power supplies for everything including my laptops, printer, server, wi-fi, and so on, and I have my audio connected to the same outlet... This is a real spider's nest, and it stinks (in a sense of EMI pollution) like a horse, er... you know what I mean.

I tried various filters, all to no avail. I decided to deal with it at the source and purchased Monarchy Audio AC regenerator - it really improved everything, finally there was almost silence in my headphones when I turn the volume up. There was still some veil present and some slight noise residue which I suppose was airborne, so my not-so-expensive (but I thought good) DIY power cord might attract like an antenna.

Reading on the Internet, I have several times come across articles where people write about great experience they had with Monarchy Audio AC regenerator and LessLoss DFPC cords. It is supposed they make a great synergy together. I decided to purchase the LessLoss Mini and see for myself.

Louis Motek was not only kind enough to help me with a tricky shipping issue, but he actually offered me a great deal on upgrading the DFPC Mini to the DFPC Original. I could not resist and we had a deal.

Within a week my cord arrived - wow, that was a real thing. In the past, I used to have a "big" serious audiophile system, and I used to have some pretty expensive cords costing up to $1500. Besides, I have excellent experience building my own, sometimes extremely exotic, cords and cables. So, I know quality when I see it. In the DFPC, everything speaks quality.

Finally I had everything in place and installed as planned - I connected the DFPC to the Monarchy AC regenerator and then to my trusty extremely resolving SPL Phonitor headphone amplifier, feeding my Ultrasone Edition 8 headphones. Well, what can I say? I am speechless.

Clarity, depth, definition, bass, top, musicality... It's all there. Music is so much more LIVE and RIGHT. Connecting my previous cord, it almost made me laugh - it was just no competition. DFPC is better than anything I have ever "heard" regarding power cords. I really don't know what to improve in my sound now - it sounds so damn good that I just can not stop listening.

I have been using DFPC for something like 3 weeks before I decided to write this testimonial. Just to make the "original wow" go away and see if I was not over-enthusiastic - nope! It is still there - music living, breathing, singing.

I would like to sincerely thank Louis Motek for making this cable available, at not so big a price. Dealing with Louis was a sheer pleasure - there are very few people in hi-fi you can get better service from. And no, I am not getting any discounts for writing this. When I say something, I REALLY mean it. :)

Sincerely,
Dmitry

DFPC Series [Signature]

Date Added: 01/09/2010 by N.K. from Lithuania
The DFPC Signature was the first cable I purchased from LessLoss. I used it on my 9G Pioneer plasma TV. Even though this TV is already an excellent performer with the stock power cord, having connected the LessLoss DFPC Signature, the picture quality got better by a significant amount.

Then I purchased my second cable from LessLoss -- their DFPC Original -- to be used on my digital set-top box.

Now, using this setup for an entire month, I can say that the picture on my TV has become almost "live". I cannot perceive ANY noise in the picture, the focus has become sharper, the colors are deeper, lusher, and the contrast is better. Everything is shown at the highest quality thanks to these cables. I'm watching secure digital SD and high definition HD program material.

Next step -- to tackle my sound issues. Of course, I'll be using LessLoss DFPCs.

Thank you, Louis.

My Dynamic Filtering Power Cable Original cables arrived today and I am quite astounded. I honestly had no idea that power cables could make that much of a difference. Even after just being hooked up and broken in a little bit I can't tear myself away from my "test" CD, Tobias Hume Musical Humors performed by Jordi Savall on the Viola da gamba. This CD has a great deal of presence and definition but at the same time an abundant amount of bass and enough detail that you can hear Savall breathe through his nose without it being distracting. I guess one of the most telling things is that rather than getting distracted by the test process, I simply can't tear myself away from the CD and have been listening to it continuously since I started playing it. Thanks so much for your carefully balanced advice. Had I done it myself, I would have assumed there was no point in getting a cable for the transport and would likely have chosen a single DFPC Signature for the DAC rather two DFPC Originals, one for the transport and one for the DAC; and that would have been an error.

LessLoss History From the Very Beginnings

LessLoss started its business on Audiogon in late 2007. Within the first couple of month, word about LessLoss spread like wildfire among Audiogon members. Here is the feedback received from our clients during our first year of operation. This is from even before we had our own website.

Louis is one of the best in the business, truly professional and very fast production and delivery. I am very satisfied by your superb service. Many thanks.
