Re: Website
This is what I said about LS6 (compared with LS5)
Initial impressions were that this cable brings on more of those NVA qualities - a sense of space, each instrument more distinctive, more of the nuances of the recording coming through. I think that, in addition to this, it produces a better sense of everything going on in the same space and time.
However, going back to the A70s and A80s produced the biggest shock. Perhaps I need to let things settle in a bit longer, but initial impressions are of a more smeared sound: a little like I'm in the room next door, not in the music room. So, what I'm saying is that A80s plus LS6 produced a distinctly better sound than A80s, plus A70s plus LS5.
As part of the transition, I had the A80s plugged into the bass with LS6 and the A70s plugged into mid/treble with LS5s. This produced, as you might expect, a stronger, clearer bass or to put it another way, when I replaced the LS6 with LS5 for the bass drivers, bass became more muddled.

Re: Website
I'm working my way through all the NVA cables, be great to get some reviews/feedback on the following cables:
LS1 / LS2 / LS3 / LS5 / LS7
I've got some great 'thoughts' on each from Gromit but be good to add some additional reviews/feedback.
Also if anyone has any reviews of SC / SSC / SSP that would also be great and any general reviews/feedback on NVA and RD (i.e. would you buy from him again and why?)
I'll come onto the amplifiers etc later once the basics are in place...
Thanks

I've got a few for LS6 but can always have more to consider...
Was there ever an LS4? Just curious...

When I was doing the original cables most of my production was going to Far Eastern countries via distributors (90's). Four is an unlucky number in Chinese numerology.

Re: Website
Interesting to know...
Well I've got all the cables up there in a basic form...reviews/feedback etc now needed.
Doc I should be free next week to pop over but will confirm tomorrow once I know work load for coming week. Gromit has got a couple of bits to get to me but I'd like to get it in fairly good shape before I see you so we can make adjustments on the fly...
Night night...
