High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
Pro series speaker cables finally arrived yesterday.  They have replaced a set of CT-1U speaker cables.  Despite Pro Series RCA interconnects and Pro Series power chord already in the system, and even without full break-in, this is probably the la...

New review of HFC's Trinity Helix headphone module.  Pretty much my experience as well:https://audiobacon.net/2017/03/16/high-fidelity-cables-trinity-helix-review/

Yes, my wallet is unfortunately quite a bit lighter but few things result in such a difference. Especially with the Pro Series, I feel like I've not just upgrades my cables but also my speakers, amp and DAC.

I now find myself fully sucked into HFC and there's happily no turning back. What started off as a pair of MC-0.5s, RCA adapters and an MC-6 Hemisphere that I purchased at Axpona last year has evolved into 9 MC-0.5s, a Pro series power chord to go...

Heebrog, I have the new Trinity Helix headphone module.  Fed directly by the headphone output on my Chord DAVE DAC, I can vouch that this is an incredible product and an excellent value. To get Helix level of magnetism at this price point is unhea... 
The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question
The upcoming UDP-203 will have an HDMI input meaning you could purchase an inexpensive Roku 4k device, which streams Youtube, Netflix, Hulu, etc. and still have the same functionality as your current Oppo.  I do this now with my current BDP-103 an... 
HIGH Quality Electric Service Panel
It seems most look at dedicated lines as a way to isolate noise.  MSB looks at it differently.  According to MSB, the main goal should be to lower resistance.  These are their guidelines that I followed and it has made a very nice difference for m...

I received my Surreal Acoustic Lens in the mail today.  It was hard not to give them a try after Rick told me "it might be my single best product."  Unfortunately, because of the whizzer / dustcap on my Omega Alnico driver, I can't get the device ...

I've had my HFC Pro series power chord feeding my Hemisphere for about 10 days now.  It replaced an already excellent CT-1 Ultimate power chord and allowed me to re-purpose my CT-1 Ultimate to power my microRendu music server.  From the get go, it...

Thanks again, ddraudt.  I can't wait to hear how things improve as you get more hours on your Pro speaker cables.  My Pro power cord has shipped and I hope to receive it next week.  I am hoping for good things.Here's a great review on the HFC CT-1...

Thanks for your advice, ddraudt.  I will try using the Pro cord between the wall and my Hemisphere first.  Since I already have a CT-1U at that position, will my break-in period be very long?You obviously have an enviable collection of HFC cables ...

+1 on the XLR version of the magnetic adapters.  XLR cables are soooo expensive. 
High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
rlawry, I currently am using RCA magnetic adapters (both source and destination) along with my CT-1UR interconnects and they provide a clear improvement.  They do look odd and will extend the rear clearance necessary for the components you plug th...

Hi, new to this thread but not new to HFC.  I own a CT-1U from my wall to my MC-6 Hemisphere and then a CT-1UR Helix from my Hemisphere to my Chord DAVE DAC.  I own 3 other CT-1 power cords for other ancillary gear including an SACD transport and ... 
How Good Are Omega High Efficiency Speakers?
You should give the Omega Compact Alnico Monitors (CAM) serious consideration.  I would put them up against almost anything if you like the sound of a single-driver, crossover-less speaker like I do.  It's the Alnico hemp driver that is the object...
