    Here is a video of White Night Power 5M power cord plugged to the speaker.
    Left speaker - White Night Power 5M
    Right speaker - White Night Power 2m


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FabkRtFf8Bg&feature=youtu.be



    As you can see I had to turn the speaker sideway so that the power cable can fit. It weighs a ton and pretty rigid.

    If the entertainment center is pulled about 5 feet out from the wall, the left speaker could be toed in a little less aggressively. Might improve the stereo image a little. Then it will truly be awesomeness.

    Emlyn, that is a very astute observation, however, that maneuver would only have an effect on our lesser and inadequate systems.

    Please don't miss the magic here, these wonder cables eliminate any "placement" issues or "power" issues all of our sub-par set ups face on a day to day basis. Not only that!!!!!!!!!!!!..............but these wonder cables bring all frequency inefficiencies into perfect harmonic alliance. Sorry MIT, your efforts just don't hold a candle to these babies.

    Sorry for my late response guys. I thought I should post my impression about the sound since both White Night Power 2M and 5M cables are installed.

    It took music to a new level. To put things in to short glossary terms, some songs sound mysterious. Some sound creepy. Some sound intriguing / explorative. Some songs sound happy. Each song showed its unique characters. With both cables plugged, the biggest benefit I am getting is the dynamic range. The distance between bass and treble is distant, miles apart. You can almost sense the distance and location of the bass and treble. Spaciousness is top notch, very 3-dimensional and distort-free. Not a slightest sign of edginess. The bass and treble is so far apart it's not even funny.

    The 5M cable does have even deeper soundstage with more micro details. It sounds extremely deep, more so than the 2M cable. The width of the soundstage is about neck and neck. Treble is clean and as clear as it can get. The 2M cable holds its own, just slightly less depth in soundstage. All range of songs sound awesome. Vocals are clean and silky. The treble notes are extremely clear like you are standing inside the waterfall. It varies from song to song. I guess you could say, very accurate and realistic. I would rate treble department in the scale 0-10 10.

    Bass is big and super tight. Very articulate pounding bass. There is plenty of impact / thrust. The bass sounds very "healthy", and completely opposite of muddiness or sponginess. I would rate bass 10.


    Basically I have deeper soundstage with more details with both cables plugged. There are no cons.


    Later I will post pics of the other tweaks I received in the package. My PC needs to be rebuilt also, to minimize fan noise and relocate.

    I think the OP should send them cables to the crime lab and get some finger prints done on the play-doe. I mean I know he is here to stir the pot. But if real I am wondering if he can still walk considering taking something so big in the read end. I also wonder what forum he belongs to that put him up to coming here and posting this!

    Are u kidding? U must be. Those cables add at least an extra 20hz extension to those speakers. They shouldnt even be considered "speakers" anymore. "Magic" is more appropriate. Remember you can now hear the "background of the background".

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....
