BlackGround Speaker Base

Date Added: 06/02/2023 by DAMIEN ANCIANO
Congratulations on the Speaker Base!! I feel it’s your most impactful product thus far! It’s uncanny!

This is the first 'tweak' that diminishes that subtle 'edge' and grain (that I thought was implicit in streaming/digital). While that sounds small, it is the first time I can hear the sweetness and tonal color of a violin and massed strings; also the noise floor has dropped (equivalent to QSA Silver levels - big!), allowing me to hear things I never heard before, and the subtle timing cues that communicate emotional intent. Last, space - the soundstage has expanded, and instruments are just 'there' (hearing the hall sound more explicitly - indeed the decays are magnificent!). Small sonic changes but huge musical gains. I hear NONE of the softness that 6 Moons heard from the mains Blackground (indeed, I don't hear that with mine) - to my ears, 'PRAT' and emotional involvement have improved! I get however that some might hear less 'edgy' transients - but to me, that is more natural and realistic.

BlackGround Power Base; BlackGround 8x/10x Speaker Base

Date Added: 05/10/2023 by Mac Finney, Baltimore, Maryland
We'll, I must admit I wasn't prepared for how much the Blackground 8x Dual Channel Speaker Base would contribute to the already spectacular 10x Power Base. From the moment I heard the first track, I knew I was in for treat. It's as if you're able to reach out and hold each note & vocal in your hands. Never has the listening experience felt so tactile. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to pick up my jaw from off the floor!

C-MARC Classic loudspeaker cable, stereo pair

Date Added: 05/02/2023 by Aleksandar from Serbia
After buying the Entropic RCA Interconnect cable, I decided to buy the Entropic speaker cables as well. For the first time in my life I hear music exactly as it is intended to be heard: absolutely no artificial coloration or any unnatural flavour is added. State of the art high end products without any doubt.

As for Lessloss as a company, rest assured that they will always go out of their way to do whatever is need to keep the customer's satisfaction at the highest possible level.

Power Distributor

Date Added: 04/29/2023 by Jose Luis
As a user of Lessloss products I was expecting that the new power distributor would have some positive effects, but the scale is in another level. Many reviews have told about purity of tone, smoothness, soundstage, quieter backgrounds… an so on. They are right.

To put my 2 cents, I would like to advise that to get the most you would pair it with the best power cables you could get from Lessloss. To my ears is a kind of accessory that is voiced to play with these cables.

Be prepared also to adjust your component and speaker cables to the new situation and, may be, finally you will find that the Delta-Sigma DAC you do not use regularly is not “in your face” anymore or, may be, you will be surprised that the most analytical and detailed cartridge of your collection is not that bad!

In my opinion everything in audio is about “sinergy”, an abused word that has lost some of his meaning, but it means to me that a balance between the character of the components is key to get the best sound of your system.

Cheers!

As might be first user from Taiwan:
I used 640x C-MARC™.
Connected to the computer: the sound contrast is increased, smooth and black, and at the same time, it seems to be 1-2db more.
Connected to DAC: The mouth shape of the human voice is relatively round, and the fluctuation is obvious. Remove the firewall, similar to cooking curry without chocolate or butterl.
Connected to the tube amplifier: the extremely low frequency is much clearer, the sound field can be lowered instead of running to the sides.
Connected to class D amplifier purifi: the treble becomes less bland, became more engaging.
Connecting to the Powerline/Power Distributors: the appeal is close to connecting to the DAC, the overall sound field is improved and the depth is stretched before and after, and the separation between instruments is good.
Listening to Imagine dragon believers, the distribution is clear, and the vocals and guitars are divided open.
Although The low-frequency sound field is not as good and deep as Connected to the tube amplifier, but it still with very good body of base.

Really thumb Up for better musical density and body.

BlackGround Power Base

Date Added: 04/15/2023 by Mac Finney
My impressions of the Blackground 10x Power Base...
Yes I am enjoying the LLBG10x very much. Most notably it's much easier to imagine the room in which the recording was made. This may be attributed to more precise layering of instruments & vocals and that lends itself to a deepening of the soundstage. Enhanced reverb adds to decay lingering longer. PB also creates a more revealing stereo presentation. I'm now able to hear details in my favorite tracks that I never heard before. Finally, and perhaps the first thing I noticed, bass from the REL became dominant and had to be backed down, however, the subwoofer sounded more nuanced and musical. In short, these changes were not subtle at all and improved SQ beyond my expectations. I'm not exaggerating when I say I'm gobsmacked! Mac F.

BlackGround Power Base

Date Added: 04/11/2023 by Richard Stanton
When I first installed the BlackGround 10x Power Base in my system, my first thought was: surely, I'm hallucinating! The enhanced detail revelation, the positive timbral changes and the expansion of the soundstage in three dimensions, all added up to a surreal representation of music I had heard many times. Surreal on FEB 23rd, the new normal on APR 11th. I intended to remove the product and wait two days to confirm my impressions, but I cannot do it. Sorry!

I've read all of the reviews for this product, both professional and user. They all ring true, not one seems like hyperbole.

Firewall Module; C-MARC Classic Power Cable; Power Distributor

Date Added: 04/05/2023 by John
Improvements in audio are a curious thing; one cannot imagine what something might sound like once improved since one's ears are tuned to whatever exists. One is happy - even ecstatic - with how things sound at the time. This is how I was, feeling that the level of clarity, definition and detail was far greater than I had ever experienced. Yet, like all psychopath audiophiles (!!!) I am always striving to find more more more!!! Or, as is the case here, less less less of things I didn't know I was hearing.

During my last date with my installer we incorporated your power conditioners as you suggested, using your power cables. We eliminated the Nordost units except for a few pieces that are not in the audio chain, and on an entirely different circuit.

And I was immediately struck by an even "blacker" background, the sound emanating from what I can only call a "pool of purity" - with no influence from external noise, interference or sound coloration. I had never heard music sound so independent of degradation.

As you mention on your website, there was a noticeable break-in period, but it wasn't too drastic; there were days things sounded different than other days, but never horrible (like during my speaker break-in period! That was horrible!). Things have settled now and I wanted you to know how incredibly happy I am with your stuff. Very impressive - my installer also was blown away... I'm sure you've found a new fan, advocate and buyer in him.

Thanks again for what you do - take care,
John

BlackGround Power Base

Date Added: 03/30/2023 by YW
To summarize my impression of the BlackGround 10x Power Base:

1. Great elimination of background noise, not dead but lively. Like a thick veil (not realized before) removed.

2. Transparency greatly improved

3. As a result of 1 and 2, microdynamics hugely improved. Subtle and far away instruments never that clearly heard. Nuances in recording venue not noticed before.

4. Whole range much faster.

5. Deeper and wider sound stage. No limit.

6. Vocal just more presence and intimate, in your room feeling.


Thanks and regards,
YW
