C-MARC RCA unbalanced signal cable, stereo pair; C-MARC Classic Power Cable

[RCA Entropic Process interconnects]

I received the RCA cable a week ago.

The sound is amazing.

Zero Fatigue, Zero Compression, Perfect L-H Balance, Relaxed but Full dynamics.

I’m really enjoying the sound of full LessLoss C-MARC loom.

Bryston BDP-2 : C-MARC AES/EBU : MUTEC MC-3+ DDC : C-MARC AES/EBU : Exogal Comet Plus DAC : C-MARC RCA : Allnic Int. Amp : C-MARC Speaker cable : Penaudio Legato Sig. (all the power cable are C-MARC Classic E.P. power cables)

The more C-MARC cable was added to the system, the more veils that covered the system were peeled off one by one.

Thank you for proving truly remarkable products.

Echo's End; Firewall Module; Bindbreaker; C-MARC Classic Power Cable; Power Distributor

I thought I would give you feedback on the products I have and the sound of my system.

Products purchased so far.

C-MARC Classic power cord 2 metre Entropic
5 of Firewall 640x (2 of which are C-MARC)
2 sets of Bindbreaker Equipment feet
Power Distributor

and the star of the show Echo’s End Reference DAC.

These products have all contributed to making the sound of my system enjoyable to listen to. I now want to listen to my hifi system again, and looking to play CDs which I have not played for a long time (This is testament to how well things are).

When I had the Echos' End Reference on loan it was touch and go whether I kept it. Basically (to my ears) there was too much attack / power to leading edge of strings (guitar) when they came in on the tracks I was using for the evaluation. In one sense a small thing, but when investing that much money I felt things had to be right. I then had an idea, a set of supports I had put in I never gauged the difference they made or not. This pretty much corrected the issue, and along with talking to Elite Audio (UK) I felt mentally more positive (state of mind does have an effect too). After further listening I was then completely happy with the sound.

The change involved removing the supports I had put under, not the CD transport, but the external linear power supply. Hifi to me is not always a science, but behaves more like an art form.

I was really concerned about bass from the Reference seeing other peoples review, but this has not been an issue. What it is is open and balanced (i.e. covers top end and bottom end equally). On a recent listening it is almost like you can hear the other side of the notes. Beautiful sounds which waft over, and work with my ears (a big thing for me).

Will be looking to add more. Following your advice, more power cables and Bindbreakers. Eventually looking to BackGround 10x Power Base, and your last Newsletter reminded me of a couple of the Blackbodies conditioners.

Many thanks for your company's products and design philosophy.

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

C-MARC Classic Power Cable

Date Added: 01/18/2023 by Luc Richard, Québec, Canada
I continue to discover the great qualities of the C-MARC Classic. 

As many reviewers and passionate audiophiles like myself, I do have dozens and dozens of songs that I use to analyze different behaviours while testing a device, cable, or anything else.

And tonight it was with Michel Camilo, using the song Suite Sandrine Part III, from the amazing album One More Once, recorded in 1994.

I use this specific track to analyze as per if a device will bring the outcome to be more, or less 'confused'! What I mean, there is so much different information on this song, from complex and virtuoso piano playing, to the amazing and highly complex drum and bass from Cliff Almond and Anthony Jackson, adding to this mix a huge and complex Brass section, and zillions of percussions!! All of this produces tremendous melodies and solos, with tricky rhythms and powerful punches! 

During the Piano solo, and also at the Percussion solo over an amazing and powerful Montuno, there are many activities with the percussion, and this is where the 'confusion' may appear!
 
With the LessLoss Classic AC cable on my Esoteric X-01 D2 CD player, you can hear every single percussion in these moments, but on top of that, they get separated from each other in such a way that you can not only distinguish every single attack, but it generates a better rhythmic flow, while bringing more space and air between each other. You also get a better sense of space as per where each musician, and their own percs, figure within the scene. You also feel every nuance in their lighter to heavier attacks. And all of this, while keeping an organic experience, without falling on the over-analytical result, which is quite impressive.

And trust me, I have been using this song on all my tests for more than 20 years!

I really look forward to adding the 640X in the line.

From what I have read, I should prepare for an audio therapy!! :-)
Kudos to you and the entire LessLoss Team!
And thank you once more for your amazing support and collaboration.
