Blue Fox, thanks for the civil post and question. After New England Electric doubled the price I paid for the first run, I figured out how to do this myself in just 3 weeks, , (yea I'm patting myself on the back a bit)
I am not going overseas to build this, no, the good old USA is good enough for me ( $#@#$%^%) I am having the cable built again by Victor Wire in southern california. My contact there is Robert Smith (kudos to him) hip hip hooray , a nice man who helped me put this all together. I have enough wire ready to build 2200 feet of interconnect cable (dual conductors )and 800 feet of speaker cable to start with. It will be two conductors with a pure copper spiral shield with a smoked gray, translucent cover on top of that with speaker cable to match. The wire on my spools represent a few million feet of actual wire. My wire strands are individually insulated and will not degrade, now or in 20 years, I call that value.
People listen to this cable for a couple of minutes and (boom, listening test is done)Today I spent sourcing out a couple of local companies to terminate the cable for me. I will probably have most of it terminated I just have to guess what lengths will be most in demand. I could use some feedback on that, maybe 1 meter, 1 1/2 meter and a few 2 meter cables. Somebody take a guess for me. Now I need to find a high quality rca plug worthy of an expensive, high performance cable that won't make people feel jipped. Nobody on this forum took me seriously and many here made fun of me like I was some sort of buffoon. Look at my remarks below for the consistency I achieved in never having a build not surpass the previous version . My previous dealer went
through close to 20,000 feet of my wire to internally and externally wire every product in their inventory. Every time my wire was removed from the signal path, boom, sound degraded. This cable has already been proven to have magical (my words only) properties. Any electric signal that goes through it is transformed (my words again ) but I have been promised hopefully some major reviews and I will write a white paper defining what my patent states and when people realize that when an audio signal goes through a wire that can not be seen with the naked eye, that is magical as well, imagine that. I believe it will garner serious immediate acceptance because at present, audio cable manufacturers hire creative writing specialists and do not discuss actual science of their cable. Hearing is believing and after being banned from the What's best forum because everyone was too busy laughing at me , my patent, saying it was bad science, and this coming from people who have created nothing, and almost being banned here I am sick of naysayers who don't have a clue what I have done. My cable will end audiophile angst (at least in my opinion) No more going back and forth between tubes and solid state, then this cable and that, and so forth. the furutech FT-111's actually look kind of nice and I plan to have the heads filled with epoxy and use a 4:1 heavy adhesive heat shrink. I would like to call it ichor ( an ethereal fluid that flows in the veins of the gods) my first name because it conjures up some great imagery for me.
this cable will not be inexpensive and my dealer advisor suggested I just start in the middle of the high end. If the cable does everything I have suggested, it will be a bargain for what it brings forth at any price. Can a price be put on audiophile peace of mind and the end of audiophile angst and the spend , spend, spend syndrome . Imagine a $2,000 amp based system blowing away your favorite high end cost no object system. Attempts to bully me here were rampant as well with people suggesting that my cable had no validity unless I was willing to give samples to all that requested it. My life has been filled with that kind of crap and soon, the truth will be known. In the 20 years that I built variations of my cable, not once did the latest generation of my cable and using the theory at hand not surpass the previous generations. Nobody has ever had a track record of building 20 sets of cable and never taking a backward step. I say that it has never been achieved before and maybe I should call myself something like Robberding Labs, but that just isn't me. I was given a gift to understand what I was hearing and I did nothing special but follow the path laid out in front of me. So in the end I had to bring this to market, why didn't I think of this sooner, the perfect answer I never though would happen. In the end I think you will all give me just a bit of thanks for persevering to help you all and bring it home.
so, help me select some rca plus, what lengths should I terminate this stuff to and who wants to have peace of mind where their brain tells them to relax, this is it.
