Sometimes you just wake up knowing it is going to be a good day. Maybe it is the way the dry Las Vegas air smells, or the way it warms up during the day in January. In any case i woke up, took a shower, and went hunting for leads to solve this baffling case. This guy in the alley stopped me and began telling me about the new G&D Transforms cable burn-in device. Hmm, now i've been down this road before with the Duo-Tech Cable Enhancer, but this guy Alan showed me why it was different... and it was. Their new Maximum Overdrive Break In Engine (MOBIE) can be used with RCA and XLR line level and speaker cables as well. They claim that five days on the MOBIE burns-in cables previously thought to already be burnt-in! It is claimed to work especially well on phono and digital cables as they usually are subjected to small signal levels during normal use and therefore need a device like the MOBIE for full burn-in effect. Priced at $250 this might be great for reviewers, high-performance audio stores, and cable junkies alike. Speaking of cables, the folks at Nirvana have some new cables for 1999. Their new S-X interconnect (1.5 meter/$1,495) builds on their S-L Series interconnect yet is claimed to yield an even lower noisefloor! A new dual-coaxial 110 ohm AES-EBU digital cable called the D-C AES-EBU (1 meter/$895) will soon be available. Meanwhile they also have some new power cords too. Check out their website for more info on these and one of this private eye's favorite speaker cables, the Nirvana Audio S-L.
On the right of the above photo is a new plug by Wattgate. If you hate those less then great power plugs, then you might wanna get these 330 plugs like me ($120). Sure my name is Richard and i'm living on a low private eye's salary, yet even a guy like me knows the best music to my ears could happen when i use my great 330 plug into a good, tight 380 slot by Wattgate. All this tool talk is making me hungry.
