Schnerzinger cables - any experience?

AudioExplorations · Feb 13, 2013

I am sure all the accounts here are genuine, but Elberoth does make a fair point.

Would be helpful if one of the admins could check the IP address locations of the following people to confirm they are from different parts of the world: Tubedoctor, CATfriend, georgemg

I guess it's good to be a bit paranoid sometimes. I am sure everyone will check out and be genuine...

I did and they are 3 different members in 3 different locations

Note that a schnerzinger demo would require someone from schnerzinger to come to your home to determine which cables are the best match for your system and components. They need to be personally present. I believe their representation is currently only Germany based.

Hello, AudioExplorations. Perhaps Schnerzinger could dis-spell much of the skepticism, paranoia, suspicions and questions by expanding the availability of demos. Limiting sales and demos to Germany and only having a small handful of folks chiming in here and there with only one or a few amount of posts is bound to create some red flags, especially in the audio industry. Does anybody know if they do plan on expanding or attending any US based audio shows? Or anywhere else for that matter?

Hopefully HJ will chime in but as far as I know they are still a very small company who only just recently started and they seem to be running at over capacity. They may wish to keep things small scale like Andy Payor @ Rockport? I really cannot comment... Hope we get HJ back commenting in this thread!

(...) I am aHUGE fan of Brazilian music although I don't understand a word of Portuguese, It speaks to me in a way few music from other countries do. Range is as large as your Music; From Luis Bonfa to Adriano Calcanhoto, Tom Jobim, Jorge Aragao or Pepeu Gomes ...

Frantz,
Your list must include Zelia Barbosa, Caetano Veloso, João Gilberto, Elis Regina, Maria Bethânia and Gilberto Gil. And also one of my favorites - Ney Matogrosso. You should get Pescador de Perolas as soon as possible ...

But I was terrified when I saw the asking price at Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Pescador-De-P%C3%A9rolas-Ney-Matogrosso/dp/B00000G8RI

Even the LP in average quality (that is the preferred version I own

) seems to be expensive:

It does ..
I am very familiar with all the artists on your list (several of their albums) save for Ney Mattogrosso of whom I know nothing first time I even heard the name... Researching Thanks

Joao Gilberto is one of my favorite artists> An incredible singer and guitarist
Elis Regina I have written about her, maybe one of the best voice this planet has known
Caetano Veloso. I don;t have all his albums (he is prolific) but at least a dozen ... If you don't have this album Livro (click here) ...Please get it in a hurry.

I will look into Ney Mattogrosso .

back to the cables.

I do not want to cause unrest.
me bothers the questioning of the credibility of the posted messages here. for me arises the appearance, they think, the here their Write a review are all bribed accomplices the company Schnerzinger. This can then at the Seriositat the company Schnerzinger doubt. There are also already widely deliberate misinformation to damage the sale! In order to obtain accurate information please Mr. Klocke contact. He speaks English.
To clarify: Yes, I am an avid and staunch fan of Schnerzinger products. The have my full confidence. When I was 14 years old, started my musical passion. In the following 48 years I have tried many HiFi equipment and accessories tested. Never before had such an improvement for me the music was perceived. I live in Germany, near Hamburg. To the company Schnerzinger to Dortmund I drive with my car 3 hours. I have the great lucky, my cables and cleaner there personally pick. It always gives me an extraordinary and fantastic experience to hear the music system of Mr. Klocke. I've ordered a cable XLR-AES/EBU for Aurender S10. Production time 3 months. I know already today, the cable shall again bring about a significant improvement in sound. The new cable I personally would of Mr. Klocke pick and again let me be by his music system inspire. On the web page: http://schnerzinger.com/ under testimonials you see as the first picture my music system. The VYGER record player have I sold. The ALLNIC H-1500 II plus phono stage I offer in http://www.audio-markt.de/. If I succeed, I present here an updated picture.

Please do not worry about this, unfortunately it is very common that members here on WBF question the credibility of new users.

I personally think it's a bit over the top and frankly the way some new and unknown members are being treated is unwelcoming and even rude. I know some of the WBF founders I am in contact with feel the same way. There have been several issues with this recently where members have taken it personally and left the forum.

Thank you for sharing your impressions of these cables, much appreciated!

Wow, amazing system!

treitz3 · Feb 14, 2013

No doubt, AudioExplorations. Hello, CATfriend. Please forgive me for the off topic post but I have to ask, if you don't mind telling us, where did you get your speaker cable stands? Very nice looking rig, BTW. I love the attention to detail.

Tom

CATfriend · Feb 15, 2013

CATfriend - great system ! Did you have any reliability problems with CAT amps ? A friend of mine is selling a JL-2 Sig at a great price, and I'm seriously considering getting one. One thing which bothers me are the reliability issues ppl seem to have with those amps.

DaveyF · Feb 15, 2013

CATfriend, GREAT system. The CAT amps are IMO some of the absolute best tube amps that money can buy. Love your cable lifters, VERY clever idea to use balsa wood. Do the brass dish resonators really help with the soundstage? I have heard these on a couple of occasions and both times the exhibitor swore by them. Can you describe the sound with them in the system and without?
Elberoth, IF you can get a JL-2 Sig at a great price, I'd jump at it.

Hello Elberoth,
I know ppl not. Please explain to me ppl. The Statement I have since July 2011. before The Statement I had JL1 and SL1 von Convergent. I heard her 10 years. the tubes were still well. Never a single problem or defect. because Convergent as reliable were and I the sound of Convergent very like, I bought the The Statement. yet it has the 6550C SED winged "C" and no KT120. the sound of the Statement I find fantastic. if the JL2 still in original condition and not retrofitted with KT120 tube I would buy it. provided the sound do you like.
Best regards
CATfriend
