"I actually listen at the highest level in terms of electronics, speakers and wiring, or so I thought until now. Until the day when an acquaintance told me about his new cables from Schnerzinger. Okay, I thought, once again a new manufacturer with the best cables in the world. How wrong I was, I realized only later. We listened to his system and I really had to give him credit for the best set-up I had heard so far in this chain.
Afterwards we arranged an appointment at our place, where colleague Brämer was also there with the complete cable program of Schnerzinger. What happened then is hard to describe in words, so far away was it from the normal results. But I would like to try anyway, in order to suggest to all other searchers also to deal with these products.
We started with the power cable on the Wadia S7i and experienced such dramatic progress even with the smallest 3000 cable that we could hardly believe it. And that in ALL areas
Then it was the turn of the NF`s. We always changed both to make sure that no information would get stuck somewhere. Even with the 3000s, that was at the very highest level. The 5000s raised the level even higher.
Bei diesen beiden Reihen zeigten sich im Prinzip die gleichen Dinge nur auf unterschiedlichem Niveau: Die Musik klingt, oder besser gesagt, spielt einfach so in den Raum hinein. Man hat das Gefühl „so muß es“ absolut stressfrei ohne Dröhnen mit allerhöchster Auflösung und vor allem eine Geschwindigkeit in der Auflösung, dass man denkt „wie ist das möglich“. Es treten Details an die Oberfläche, die vorher einfach nicht da waren. Es fasziniert aber nicht in erster Linie nur die Geschwindigkeit der Wiedergabe, das können evtl. noch andere Hersteller, diese Selbstverständlichkeit und Verzerrungsfreiheit in der Wiedergabe ist wahrscheinlich das große Geheimnis. Es funktioniert bei allen Aufnahmen, nicht nur bei super aufgenommenen Scheiben.
Finally, of course, we wanted to know and the 8000 series was heard. I think it was clear to all of us, and we were a total of 5 high end sufferers, that these cables are a far cry from what is usually available. In any case, our mouths almost remained open, so live, physical and emotional was the performance. The sound system stepped back completely and there was just music playing. Unbelievable! And we had already listened with the most expensive equipment (Transparent Opus !!! cables).
When the LS cable came in at the very last, the performance was perfect.
The airiness and openness was insane, this tangible physicality of the individual tones, coupled with a real, inner dynamics, which simply grabs you and pulls you right into the music. No other cable has been able to build this up so far, without any price limit, in my system. Great cinema and a huge compliment to the Schnerzinger team. They are really a big step ahead. The cables will hurt many market competitors very much, they just do not know it yet :-)
To deepen what we had heard and the rough knowledge about the cables, we made an appointment with the master himself. There, too, the same impression presented itself. Additionally we made the experience, what this unique technology makes out of a normal Sony CD player if one uses it correctly and deeply. I would not believe it if I had not heard it. A normal player from the 800€ class, which Schnerzinger had also tuned with formatting, sounded like a player tens of times as expensive, unbelievable. Without electronic intervention, this was previously unimaginable.
Many thanks again for the detailed explanations at this point.
I can really only recommend everyone to deal with Schnerzinger on this subject. They are blessed with enormous and profound knowledge and experience.
All that remains for me to say at the moment is: congratulations to the entire team, you are way ahead!"
Yours sincerely / Best Regards
