    Awesome love that music playing, kinda jungle rhythm thing, as the White Night Cable slithers, and coils around those pillars waiting to attack its Prey that prey being your Focal speakers. You got it going on Cheezy you got it going on. I'am still contemplating on selling all of my personal belongings and ordering up a couple of these!

    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".

    I had forgotten all about this thread. I love the Dolphin cable risers that B Run posted. Shouldn't the company just be called "nuts" instead of coconut-audio? Do they make a unicorn model of riser with real rainbow infused into it?

    At least it does the same job as the other cable risers out there, although a tad pricey, lol

    This guy makes pepster look like a certifiably, sane individual.

    Im really confused why you would want a 5m cable? Look at all that useless cable you have winding around your dumb-as_ looking Pier 1 columns. On a side note, those sweet playdoh coverings really accent the primer white walls of your audiophile apartment.

    I hear white vans seriously have magical tonal qualities that pass through the wires as you clip them to wrap in compatible sequence within the sleeve during assembly. The inner resonances echoing within the van create a force field of sorts that impregnates into the finished cable thereby canceling out all possible distortion within the cable by using distortion to cancel distortion which results in a distortion free cable. In addition, when building longer cables within the van the extra length actually results in massive increases in tonal resonance distortion absorption because as we all know the longer the cable the better the signal transfer.

    It will be close, but I think I have enough equity in my house to make a purchase possible. *fingercrossed*

    Unfortunately, no. But the good news is you eventually bleed out enough that euphoria takes over. The same euphoria cheezy gets from the model glue he sniffs before he types up one of these "reviews".

    Bass in the 45hz region. It doesn't have to be at 28- 30hz to hear bass. With different cables, the bass resolution and hardness differs with same speaker. There is more to it than just frequency range.

    It is very detailed. I can hear hear what spectators are saying in the background, almost like background of the background, especially in performance in stage.

    For greater noise cleaning power. Longer the better.

    I think those columns make good presentation. It looks chic. That's not an apartment. It's a house.

    Do you ACTUALLY believe the assinine drivel you spew?
    Longer cables clean noise better? No...longer cables add impedance.
    Those columns look chic? No...they look like tacky dollar store crap. Just like your $7 plastic Dollar General tree.
    And the spectators in the background? No...those are the voices in your head and I hate to break the news to you but those voices have severe learning disabilities.

    But troll on brother...troll on. :eek:

    With the exception of Patrick's alien crystal technology, the longer power cords benefit more from noise cleaning in general. And audio cables benefit more from shorter length as the timing is more critical.

    I just saw price increase on the White Night Power 5M. The performance price is now at $250,000. You could buy a Ferrari 458 Italia or Lamborghini Balboni Valentino LP550-2 with that money.:eek:

    I just put in my order for 3 of them. I'm so glad you started this thread, I'd never have known the exceptional traits of this product otherwise. I was going to buy a new house but after reading your reviews, I think an upgrade to my system would be more beneficial. I have no doubt this PC will take my modest system into another realm. Thanks again.
    If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    You ordered three of White Night Power 5M? Wow, congrats! Do you have a passive audio system or active? Either way you go, you will hear the difference immediately. At first I was part skeptical before buying cables from Patrick, but I took a shot at it. So glad I did. One of the things you will notice the most is the size and depth of soundstage. Very spacious sound with full of details and clarity.


    Right now my PC is suffering with fan noise for the CPU. Even though the system is hidden inside the cabinet I can still hear fan noise a bit. I will be replacing the heatsink and fan with a quiet one (or heck, might watercool it) and take another video of it.
