DFPC Series [Original]

Date Added: 01/23/2009 
I plug the LessLoss Dynamic Filtering Power Cable in between my power line conditioner and a Sony LCD TV model KDL46-XBR3.

First I noticed that something was different with the picture and then I began to switch TV channels and had I long ride along the cable TV channel line up.

Somehow I started to see improvement as time passed. I spend about four hours watching cable TV and the DFPC brought in a new dimension to experience of watching TV, from now on is living the presentation!

1. Lower channels (Local programming) non-digital were cleaned up. Picture noise was greatly reduced, contrast was improved and the image gain a sense of 3D dimension like never before.

2. All the digital channels and HiDef channels were improved in the same way!

I have a Shunyata Research Diamondback PC connecting this Sony LCD TV which I think is a good improvement compared to the Sony stock PC but never to the performance level of the DFPC.

Firewall

Date Added: 01/22/2009 by Han de Hair The Netherlands
Dear Louis,

The Firewall and the Lessloss cables have arrived!

What a piece of gear!! When I unpacked it, I was very surprised to see how big it really was! It looks fantastic and is beautifully made, compliments on that.

Then I installed everything, that took me some time because of its size but setting it up was very easy. When it was in its place, I could start playing...

My first impressions:
First thing that came to my mind was that what I heard was very detailed, really crystal clear and with an impressive black background. The sound was a bit thin however and lacked the authority that I usually get from my system. Had to play on a higher volume than normal. A bit disappointing until I realised that of course the Firewall needed some time to break in!
Today I left my system switched on and now I'm listening to all of my favourite cd's and I'm getting happier and happier. The detail and crystal clearness are at least as magic as I heard yesterday and the dynamics, authority and full bodiedness are back, even on a higher level than I ever got from my system! It sounds fantastic!
After a few days of listening I feel like being in "audio heaven". I'm so glad that I have found your website and the Firewall! My set is playing like never before and I have thought about the right words to describe that. The only thing that kept coming to my mind was that everything has become more real. When I play Tom Waits it feels as if he is singing and playing his little organ in my very living room, fantastic!

Conclusion after two weeks:
This Firewall is fenomenal! More detail in every aspect (low mid and high), more stage, speed and dynamics, a significant gain in clearness and most of all a more real and natural sound.

Thanks again and we'll keep in touch!

Best regards, Han

DFPC Series [Original]

Date Added: 01/20/2009 
Just tried two of the DFPC's on my Ayre K-1xe pre and V-1xe power amp.

I was a little sceptical that this was really about a good marketting effort, even ater reading all of the reiews. Audiphiles can move in waves sometimes. But I have to say that even on just plugging the cable in with no burn in I was quite surprised by the effect. My reaction was essentially "you have to be kidding me". I have tried cables by Zu (Mother Mk.2), Cardas ( Golden Reference), Synergistic(A/C Master Series with active sheilding), VH Audio(Airsine), Gutwire(G-Clef)and inexpensive cables by Kimber. My experience is that you very often have to listen closely to hear a difference and then proceed to disect it. Not this time. the diffence jumped out at me - a sense of increased energy, better high frequency extention and a better flow from the music. A fuller picture will emegre over time as the cable burns in and I listen further, but, on the face of it this is something. I have not tried other cable at $1000.00 or more, and will be keping the VH Audio Air sine on my EMM CDSA for now as the difference was not as dramatic and don't want to get another DFPC cable until I sell it(it was $749.00), but would not hesitate to recomend trying this cable.They are also well made with the best wall plug I have tried. I feel that until I am ready to try cables in the $1000.00 - $3000.00 price range, which i am not confident can be signficantly better, I am done with Cables. Great job, whatever you are doing.

Blackbody

Date Added: 01/07/2009 
Blackbody (1st version)

Actually, this is more of a small add-on to my personal experiences with "light" frequency in the effect of sound reproduction. I do not profess to be a scientist on this front but have trusted my ears to let me comment.

I read the Blackbody article with great interest. An actively powered blue light bulb was mentioned as enhancing sonic quality.

You may want to explore "reflected" light -- that is, something passive. I have found ORANGE PAPER (unwaxed) sticker dots (the ones you find at stationery stores to color code documents, folder, files, etc.) to be extrememly effective in enhancing sound quality. Other colors just did not cut it, the worse being blue and green. I have found dual use for this...interplay of reflected light and resonance (specifically, sympathetic resonance...why fight resonance when you can never get rid of it, and you do need it afterall), all on the passive "unpowered" front.

The people at Shun Mook have known about this for a very long time.

Try it, you may be just as surprised and perplexed!


Cheers,
Kenny

Firewall

Date Added: 12/23/2008 by Alan Carruth
I just installed the Firewall in my system to compliment the 5 DFPC I previously installed. I am absolutely stunned by the quality of the sound!!! The sound stage is enormous; the voices and instruments are relaxed and fluid; the background is as black as I've ever heard on any high end system (my system is Jeff Rowland amps and preamp, Sonic Frontier CD transport and DAC with Nordost Valhalla and Odin interconnects, Wilson WATT/Puppy 7 speakers). I have never felt as much a part of the music as I am now. What a joy!!! I could listen all night. Even my wife is astounded, and she usually doesn't sit still very long to listen. Thank you so much Louis. I highly recommend the Firewall to anyone seeking to dramatically improve their music listening experience.

DFPC Series [Original]

Date Added: 12/23/2008 
A few weeks ago, I ordered one DFPC from LessLoss. Triggered by all the favorable reviews on the web, I decided to give it a try. I hooked up my Rega Saturn CD player and got an excellent result. Even before complete burn-in, the improvements were huge. I got much more detail, more fluid highs, deeper lows and a much blacker background. The lows especially improved a lot. Instead of bass I now heard detailed low notes, I could even tell the difference between the instruments producing the lowest notes.
After a week I ordered three more DFPC, to get these improvements for my pre- and power amps as well. It certainly further extended all of the improvements mentioned above, but now even much more of them. The soundstage widened, got deeper and higher. A non-audiophile friend was totally blown away with some of his favorite music, as was I!
Service and communication with Louis was excellent throughout the whole process. Very quick replies to my emails, prompt shipping and almost instant delivery with UPS.
This has been a very good and pleasant upgrade for my system. I know these cables will stay for a long time (I already sold my previous power cords!).

Firewall

Date Added: 12/05/2008 
Dear all,
I heard a one of the first Firewalls in our showroom.
Our system had as a powerfiltering device the famous Isotek Titan.
As a source we had a Audio Aero Capitole.
Of course we listened with our Kaiser Kawero Speaker

And how was the sound?
I did never, never hear such a difference from a power filter.
After one song I decided to switch our development system to be feed by a Lessloss Firewall.
What is immediatelly perceivable is the "black background" of the musical event. Sound stage is much more stable and the tone itself has the right harmonics. You can feel the body of the instruments. Wood sound like wood. Brass like brass.
After that experience I decided to join Lessloss as exhibitor for the RMAF 2008.
I was pretty sure that we would perform on ultra high level using the Firewall in Denver
If anyone is interested in purchasing a Isotek Titan, please let me know.
I will make a good price ...

Best regards

DFPC Series [Original]

Date Added: 11/26/2008 
My fellow audiobuddies.

Two weeks ago I tested the DFPC against the following cords in my system :
Virtual Dynamics Master series LE 2.0.
Virtual Dynamics Nite II .
Acrolink with Oyaide 004 ends.
Iego 029's with Oyaide 004 ends ( my second choice).
Furutech Evolution with upgraded piezo furutech ends.
Harmonic Technology.
Harmonix .
All the previous cords are great units on their own and outperforms almost everything out there no matter the price.

But never was so easy to realize the superiority of a component before.
Yours one gives the idea of a impresionist artist drawing the most beautiful and tiny notes with delicate care over a canvas meanwhile the others just were trying to make some music.

Anyone that has listened Lessloss DFPC before is very clear what Im talking about . The ones not blessed yet I must ressume it in very few adjetives :
Delicacy , pleasing, timbre accuracy ( my must in musical reproduction) and the best tight but generous bass I ever get in my system.

Electronics used for the test :
Audion Appollo vv52b monoblocks ,Audion SN SET , Canary Audio cd-100 player , Jadis J1 transport , Krell KPS 30i as Dac , JBL 4350 studio monitors.


Congratulations for such a product.

Sincerely Victor

DFPC Series [Original]

Date Added: 10/26/2008 
I came across the LessLoss Dynamic Filtering Power Cable (LL DFPC) when reading about power cables on the internet. I was of cause very curious about the cable due to the many very positive reviews, so I bought a LL DFPC in August. I received the cable very fast - just 2 days after ordering. When connecting the cable to my amp - McIntosh MC275 - my expectations were very high and for sure they were fully fulfilled. Right out of the packing I was able to tell the difference. It sounded right from the beginning and just after 24 hours I would say the cable had more or less settled in. It just sounded so relaxed, natural and none fatiguing.

Indeed this power cable is something special. The only 'problem' is that you tend to get addicted to the sound of the LL DFPC. As a consequence I bought 3 more cables: One for my Audio Aero Capitole CD/preamp, one for my Velodyne DD18 subwoofer and finally one for my Furutech e-TP60E Power Distributor. I had no problem whatsoever hooking them up in my system. Despite the basic idea of the LL DFPC to be plugged directly into the wall outlet, I have to say that using a good power box or strip supplied by a LL DFPC furthermore improves the performance.

In total I have spend $2276 on LessLoss power cables. I can honestly say that I have never before achieved so much sonic performance for that amount of money. The LossLess power cables have made a dramatic improvement and have taken my system to another level. Listening to music now makes a lot more fun. I don't know how these guys at LossLess, Louis and Vilmantas, managed to make the perfect power cable - but they did! My search for another power cable has ended with the LL DFPC.

To put it in short: The sonic performance of the LL DFPC is outstanding and the built quality of the cable - including the Oyaide 079 connectors - is of a very high standard.
Highly recommended!

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.
