SOUND
"With the LC-1 MkII the sound became warmer, the treble softer and the bass especially at the midrange transition fleshier and stronger."

"Here we need to listen in an appropriate context, i.e. over a system in a related price range. With them changing from a generic cable to the LC-1 mkII made sense. The sound got quieter and better. The slightly softer treble helped to improve vividness and clarity in the midrange and bass."

"The LC-1 MkII is a very nice inexpensive cable that proved itself well in entry-level systems by removing nervousness and adding some darkness for richer colors."

“And finally the power. I am writing about it last not because it’s the least – it is exactly the opposite, I will discuss it in a moment – but because individual products must be chosen after the system is completed. It should help the system, and not mask its flaws and shortcomings. It was a simple task to choose the power strip – I use the PF-2 GigaWatt in my system for a long time, so I chose its younger brother, the model PF-1. The strip comes with a nice power cable, the LC-1. And it was a no-brainer to order four of those cables, allowing the computer type cables, coming with the devices, to power for example… a computer. You could move slower, start playing with stock cables, and then proceed to upgrade the system with the LC-1.”

“Differences in class between the recordings are clear, the system does not slow anything down, but do not dominate the sound. I can tell from my experience, that such a compromise, and audio is art of compromise (as its marriage), is very well chosen. Breathtaking results are achievable, even when we know the flaws of such a combination, and that it can be done better. So again, the basic system sounds just like that.”

"LC-1 is the most affordable cable in the GigaWatt catalog. Taking into account its price, it seems to be a very attractive position among the company’s offerings, the more, taking into account, that it is the direct successor of the power cable Powercord Super - Power Audio Laboratories, which gained high acclaim on the market, and was more expensive.

LC-1 is characterized by maturity and calmness. High class of the sound in supported mostly by a splendid evenness in the whole frequency range. Our attention was turned to the naturally drawn bass region. It does not boom, and it is not contoured, it goes into the lowest regions without problems, while keeping its vigor.

LC-1 is also a very good proposition for all people, who want to provide solid power for their TV sets. Even without using a conditioner, or a power strip, the picture gets better, what can be seen as more differentiated black and more intensive colors.”

VERDICT
“The owner of the cable will quickly appreciate its solid workmanship and the price, which seems rather occasional”
