I too have recently upgraded to the Tricon Analog and heres my 2 cents: completely agree with Violins assessment: worth every penny. I've used Harmonic tech's analog & XLO Signature 1.1 over the past years -- wow, what I've been missing. Sonic descriptions above are completely accurate;
- it's exactly like all other Tesla cables; bigger wider and deeper sound stage, more realistic harmonic texture, more organic, more WOW
- produces bigger, more lifelike images, with a deeper and wider soundstage
- the Tricon simply puts the performance in the room, and is quite easy on the ears and is very addictive
- the tonality, dynamics, depth, width, everything is there
I would also add the following about the Tricon Analog: front to back layering and concentric rings of air around each speaker expands the soundstage in my room 6 ft to either side of each speaker. The cable is also very fast ..not aggressive just fast. This cable retrieves (reveals?) recording & venue cues... (reverb, echo, delay etc.) with haunting accuracy unlike any cable Ive ever experienced -- especially on live recordings. I too have most of my system wired with Synergistic Teslas. My Analog front end consists of: Oracle Delphi turntable, Triplanar arm with a Shelter cartridge feeding a CAT Ultimate MK II preamp. I can't see how you can go wrong with this cable; pure magic in my system!
