I have read quite a few positive comments about the umbilical cables from Revelation Audio and how they improve the sound of Pass preamps when being used between the power supply and the line stage instead of the cheap standard cable that Pass is supplying.
In principle I would be inclined to try them out with my Pass gear but if I understand it correctly Revelation Audio has more or less doubled the price of their DB-25 umbilical cable within the last two or three years for no obvious reason. Apart from the fact that I have a little personal concern about this rather steep price increase and the reasons that might be behind this, the resulting current sum total for the four umbilicals needed for my XP-30 and my two XP-25 is now more than I would be willing to pay.
So the question is whether there are DB-25 cable substitutes from other manufacturers, and if so whether anybody has tried them and might be able to share their experiance?
