brightness of speakers may vary depending on the amplifier/receiver and interconnects being matched.

sa watt hi fi meron 2 spools of xlo pro pero yung vdo ubos na pina-reserve na ni kimpao yung last 18feet dahil mas bagay daw with scott and ma b4 combination based on his experience.

i also use xlo er-14 with my ma b4 and amx el-34 tube amp for audio and also with my yammy rxv-440 (b4 and bcenter) for ht.

ginoong hans adriane,


If ma sounds ok  and the output is the same using ecosse or xlo or vdo cable, pareho2x ba ang price nila? and kungkahit ano cable ok, gamit na lang ako ng thin wires for Monitor audio. Kc i've research lahat ng mga brand na cnabi mo is isa lang ang distributor. Parang your promoting their products.

the output of ma (b4 to be specific) using xlo pro, xlo vdo, and ecosse 2.3 are not the same based on my own eperience, let me elaborate,   i initially used ecosse 2.3 when my mas' are new but after 3 months and x-numbers of hours of usage the base became too boomy for my ears and as predicted by my ever reliable guru kimpao. i auditioned both the pro and vdo with my system and the vdo came out the best for my ears (also for kimpao's expert ears). im not saying that the vdo is the best cable among the three with ma, other gears used plays a big factor here and this is just based on my own personal experience and preference.  one more thing, i also used thin wires with ma and the result was also thin sounding (again for my taste). 

sir hans,

promote mo ba produkto ng nasabing distributor ng mga nasabing speaker cable? sino ba ang distributor na tinutukoy?

lanceloth

this is just based on my experience, YMMV, but i'll be "brutally" frank about my findings (IMHO). Initially, out of the box, the MA's are harsh sounding aside from being upfront and sibilant.  In order to tame such, i used ecosse 2.3  in order to add the "body" needed to overcome such waterloo. Now as your MA's are starting to break-in, you would notice that the bass would slowly become over powering and that the mids and highs are starting to roll-off.  In other words, unting unting 'nauutal" yung speakers, until such time na when you'll play any jheena lodwick, corrine may or stacey kent track sinisipon or "ngongo" na sila.  >:D That's the time you'll know that you have to switch to another brand.  Lanceloth, it just so happend that the distributor here for ecosse and xlo are one and the same company, "plain old coincidence".  Niether one of us here are trying to sell any cable, buti sana kung may "commissions" from them kaso wala eh. On the contrary, promoting in a sense that it is unconcious, why? we are trying to recommend here and to help new members who are out in the market on what's best based on our experience with different brand but "at the end of the day", it's still one's decision on what to purchase.  :'( ;D

Output of both cables, nahhhhhh................. very different but almost the same price level (ecosse 2.3 and xlo/pro 650. ::) :P   

IMHO, changing to xlo would yield to balanced output to all frequency levels(i.e. bass, mids and highs) to your MA plus  a "laidback" characteristic (parang yung pabder mo yung tumutunog).  ;D  XLO VDO/er-14, will extended your bass frequencies plus tightens your mid bass output, mids will somehow bring-in airyness and bloom, highs are sparkling and tames the MA's metal dome tweeters, hindi masakit sa tenga and hindi bitin yung highs. For the PRO/650, the only difference i found from the er-14 is that it adds more body the mids.  But again these results may vary by using different equipment.     

Overall, am not saying that may pangit o magandang wires but each of them has its own advantage and disadvantage at a certain period of time and the equipment used with them.  ;)
 
Using thin wires, hmmmmm........  ::) ::) Sububkan mo sir, kahit kalahating araw lang, then balikan mo kami (post mo results).  ;D ;D ;D

To Mr. Lanceloth:
People on this thread are the same people who help me when i started a serious hobby with Audio. If you only know this people they are willing to disturb & help you when it comes to Audio, they can even let you barrowed or test whatever gear they recommend just to show you the difference.

Maybe you need to know this guys! Honestly they will HELP YOU! If they are recommending some brands, that is tested based on experienced! Fish be with you!
