Come and say hello, play music, compare and judge for yourself in North West Surrey I have many mains cables from upgrades and upgrades you can hear here So many at different levels because I was always sceptical (perhaps you are too) However each time I upgraded sound quality improved. These have to go to where they will be used so will list them soon (ish) Will work out what I have and list below Let me know by PM and make a date. No need to buy anything, but I'll be delighted if you do

That's not what Mike is doing. He's offering a service, comparing mains cables.
Funny that the naysayers aren't quick to take him up on it, though?

Indeed.
I've never made a firm conclusion about mains cables so I would like to take advantage of Mike's kind offer.

There are plenty of naysayers for power cables, Chris. All they have to do is listen.

They're not stomping about and shouting around here.

Nope but Mike posts on other forums so opens this up.

Nope but Mike posts on other forums so opens this up. I have not seen this type of thread/posting/offer on any other forum. Would Mike anticipate the reaction he might get on other forums perhaps? Or perhaps he was going to do those later. As the vast majority of people have quite different systems the likelihood of everyone experiencing what some do is very low. Even if I lived within walking distance of Mikes I would not take up his generous offer. His system is nothing like mine and when I have tried cables that a significant number of people were raving about I just could not hear any difference. They don’t do it for me.

Agree different system can get different results

...but if you try something, you might be surprised. If not, you will never know.
Rather than pissing on Mike's cornflakes, Alan, why not contribute to the thread I started specifically the other day for that purpose?

Dude, why not just say I have some mains leads for sale come round to hear them? There are people who are uncertain or not convinced of mains cables and would like to hear without any pressure, even of a 30 day return. This is an audio forum. I am offering a chance to hear the above before I sell them. Wish I'd had this opportunity when I started on mains cables. This range of cables is not available in 99% of places. Around £50 up to £1000+ Guys can hear the difference between the lowest to the highest and make their own decision. No measurements just listening
