Strength:
- Sweet and seductive sound generally - Exceptionally deep, tightly controlled bass - Clear transparent liquid treble.
Weakness:
Really there isn't anything I can think of. This interconnect really made me notice the difference between freebie interconnectes and what is especially striking is the performance given the relative price. It really does make you wonder why pay more for more expensive interconnects. Music has more solidity, fluidity and a very enticing sound that is exciting while the top end remains sweet and never sounds harsh. Another important detail I noticed is that the bass has exceptional punch with vitually no over-hang. It's impact literally travels through you which is notably absent with lesser interconnects.

Strength:
Build Quaility, warm, but accurate, tight controlled low-end
Weakness:
None People, This is truly Surreal, makes the the music come alive without any coloration and unnaturalness. Probably the best Cable out there at its price point and higher. This cable has one of the highest IMPEDIANCE load, so I do not if this is the reason for its great sound.

Strength:
Absolute tonal accuracy Controlled yet warm Brings out the "character" of the instruments
Weakness:
None The Chorus really impresses me with its nuetral/ever so slightly warm character. It has all the fullness of a stranded cable, but maintains the intricate detail of a solid core. Midrange is just absolutely perfect; strings sound plucked, but not artificial, voices are full without being nasal. Bass is rendered in a deep yet very controlled/accurate manner. You can almost feel the coloration of the wood used in the instrument--a tube-like quality. Extremely intoxicating. Similar Products Used: Audioquest; Kimber; Analysis Plus |

Strength:
Details, good clean bass, gorgeous vocals
Weakness:
none that I can hear Before I get into this review, let me share my system (atleast you know what I used the cable with): Receiver: Onkyo TXDS797 THX certified Amplifier (for bi-amp purpose): Outlaw 750 5- channel amp. Speakers: 5.1 set up Wharfedale Pi-40 mains Pi-center, Pi-10 surround Sub: Infinity HPS1000 (1000 watts powered) I recommend these audio interconnect. These cables sounded warm, no sign of harshness. They produce good tight bass and convincing vocals. The treble comes out very natural. For the price, I believe that these are definitely the audio interconnect to buy. By the way, in What HiFI Magazine, these received the great reviews. Furthermore, they were highly recommended in the 1998 awards of the magazine.
