DSR3 Interconnect Question (Read 273 times)

bloodlemons Senior Member Posts: 95	DSR3 Interconnect Question 04/18/24 at 20:14:25 I just got a handful of new Decware DSR3 interconnects for my system. Does anyone know if there's an optimal placement for the sliding weight on each cable? According to the Decware site, the weights are intended to damp vibrations. Should they just be hanging free anywhere along the cable?

I have a few pairs and never knew what that thing was for. I figured it was for isolation so I have placed it anywhere that two cables crossed, for example, where I have to cross a power cable with an interconnect I would put the sliding thing on top of the power cable. And you know what? I can’t notice one difference one way or the other!

Curious to hear what Steve says.

I have a pair of DSR3's and wondered that myself. I should have known Lon was on the mark with his response. I have since repositioned the weights near the outputs of the cable. Thanks for sharing Steve's email.
