Kloud 9 Interconnect demo tour list - free raffle
« on: 25 Mar 2024, 11:13 pm »
Now that I am finally getting delivery of new OCC five-9's silver wire from Japan, I plan to build some more of
my new IC design that is beating everything else I have heard or owned.  I am still planning to
sell the cable business, but before I do that, I want to replace all of the cables in my personal
system with these and show the world what a fabulous cable this is by passing one around to my
followers here on Audiocircle.  This silver cable has all of the advantages of silver, without the
harshness that most other silver cables impart to the SQ.  It allows one to see deep into the
music and vocals, piano and percussion are particularly live sounding.  Every system is different and it's
a system after all, so your mileage may vary.  It's not a cable for synergy or adding color to the
sound.  Just pure honesty without brightness or harshness.

I will build and sell a few if people have to have them before I sell the business.
I will give this particular cable away to one lucky winner of the raffle after the reviews are posted. 
No other cost to the participants than shipping to the next person on the list.
My wife will pull the name from a hat.

I have already had another guy in the business replace his cables with these
after he did a shootout.  They will be much cheaper from me than the next guy. 
The cable is 1m and terminated with silver bullet-plugs.  A true giant-killer.
Lowest capacitance per foot in the industry, about 2pF, so it is ideal for DAC to amp or DAC
to preamp, where capacitance is critical.  Cable capacitance is critical in this situation because
DAC output drivers are usually fairly weak, with high-impedance compared to a typical preamp.
Also, very critical when passive line-stages are in use.

Therefore, I want to create a list of Audio Circle folks that want to audition and review the cable.
Honest reviews, no matter how short are required on Audiocircle.  Make sure to describe your system
and where in the chain the IC is inserted in the review.
I can send the demo cables to the first on the list, who can audition them for no more than 30 days
and then send it on to the next person etc.  Your cost is US mail to the next guy, around $13.45 for Priority
maximum.  Most will be less.. 
The address to the next guy on the list will be provided by me via email.

It is a very light cable, but very durable.  It needs to be packed loosely, so a larger thin box will be used.

I can take names, email addresses and shipping addresses of interested parties using PM.
The email addresses will not be given to anyone else and the address of the next in line
will be the only thing the other participants have of your information.

When there appears to be no more interest, I will finalize the list and ship to the first person that responded to
this post and provided address and email with PM.  This should take less than a month before I ship it I think.

Thanks,
Steve N.

Steve,

Kloud9 name is better.  Can you also make a digital BNC cable from this technology?

It does not make sense.  Different requirements for analog and digital.

I have a superb 75 ohm digital cable that I already sell, but not on the website.
It is called Reference BNC and sells for $550 plus shipping.
It is silver coax with expanded Teflon.  30-day return.
contact me at nugent@empiricalaudio.com for ordering.

ps: I also have a bare-bones silver version that is also excellent called the "Standard BNC",
which sells for $300.

I decided to make it a raffle. Your cost is the shipping to the next guy and posting a review.

One lucky randomly chosen guy/gal on the list will get this cable for free after the reviews are all posted, and the cable is returned to me.

I think I will allow more to be added to the list after the reviews start coming in.  This will create more interest I think.

An opportunity to audition an excellent cable in your own system and a chance to get one for free.  What's not to like?

7 on the list so far. I would like to get 8-10.

It's a chance at a free cable worth around $1500!

This sounds like it would be great for a phono cable.

We have 11 participants now.  I think that is enough in order to limit the time.  No more participants please.
With that many, I think the audition period should be 2 weeks.  It will take up to a week to ship to the next person,

artofaudio has the demo Kloud 9 cables, so the evaluations have begun.  He has 2 weeks to evaluate and then ship to the next guy, S Clark. 

I included one 1m set of Kloud9 RCA's and one set of previous construction RCA's in case someone needs a second good cable set to hear the difference.

Turns out that artofaudio is not ready to audition the cables.  He has a component on the way and wants to wait for that.

Therefore, it is being forwarded to S Clark.

Turns out that artofaudio changed his mind and will test it with a new server that he has.  Sorry.
You should get around the third week of June.
