Power Cable Upgrade for KEF HTB2SE subwoofer

[admin_exported]

Hey guys

I've just ordered two Clearer Audio Copperline Alpha cables for my tv & BluRay player, (amp is hardwired so can't upgrade that one). My question is, is it worth upgrading the subwoofer power lead? I would try the new one on it but the sub has a fig8 connector not IEC and there won't be enough room underneath the cabinet to use the adapter you can buy.

Can anyone recommend an alternative to the Clearer Audio that has a fig8 connector?

Now i'm wondering if the Xbox 360 would see any improvement, any views?

Hi Paul,

I was using this

On my sky HD box and then swapped it to my HTB2SE, great quality cable.

Cool.

Did you notice any improvements over the standard cable?

To be honest after fitting the cable i didnt watch a film for ages, so didnt have any immediate A/B comparison regarding improvements etc, im sure its doing a great job !

What i will say is i have the same Bluray player as you and have upgraded to the Copper Line Alpha aswell, i did test this and noticed an improvement straight away, the sound on both CDs and films became more punchy and seemed louder / clearer if that makes sense.

Splendid! Thanks for that. They've been dispatched now so I'll be having a play at the weekend. Ta.
