AC line conditioning is far more critical to audio quality than speaker cables and interconnects. Given an accessory budget of $5000., I would spend it in a heartbeat on the SOUND APPLICATION CF-X conditioner and simply make do with my old cable.

Review by Jeff Parks
“The Sound Application Reference LineStage has been the biggest audio upgrade that I have heard in my system to date. Nothing, and I mean nothing—no speakers, no amplifiers, no preamplifiers, no CD players, no turntables, no cartridges—have made as much difference in my system as the Reference LineStage. I am now hearing my Audio Research gear for the first time, and I understand why so many high-end audio manufacturers, audio reviewers, and recording studios, including MoFi and Rick Rubin’s American Recording, use Jim Weil’s products. They are simply THE BEST. Knowing this in hindsight, if I ever put together another audio or home theater system, I will start with the line conditioner before purchasing any other gear, and that line conditioner will be the Sound Application Reference LineStage. The difference that this product made in my system was unbelievable, so I purchased the review sample. That is the highest recommendation I can make.” read review

Review by Jeff Fritz
“If your primary goal is the reduction of the noise caused by RFI and EMI, I heartily recommend the Sound Application CF-X… If you are worried about any frequency-response anomalies, the CF-X showed none. Best of all, the CF-X did its job without a single problem, either mechanically or sonically.”
