OK, time for some details about this cable. It is 8ft length
only, 14awg and looks like a cheap heavy duty extension cord
you get at the hardware store, even comes tied in the center
like an extension cord, looks like a $39 cable. Looks can be deceiving however.
You discover right away the molded female IEC is high quality as it grips much tighter than cords that come stock. Like all cables burn-in is required, at first sounding slightly bright and grainy. After 3-4 days sound blossoms, providing smooth, detailed sound, quite natural sounding which is amazing for a cable at this price level.
How good is it? I feel it is an exaggeration to say it equals the $1-2,000 cables, but it is very good. I would say it sounds as good as the best cables in the $250-500
range, quite an acheivement. To me clearly better than say
a HT ProAC11, and close to equaling the excellent
Shunyata Sidewinder at fraction of the cost. As with any cable some will like it and some won't depending on your system and musical taste. My system can be viewed in virtual
systems under "musical fidelity nirvana"
In summary we should thank member KrJr for bringing this excellent bargain to our attention, I can second his recommendation, and urge other members to give them a try
for $39 each, add currently listed under cables/power in the dealer section, GTT Audio. It is refreshing to get good performance at a very reasonable price in this often overpriced area of product.
