Acrolink Cables, anyone heard them?


I have an Esoteric SACD player and presently I am using an Acrolink power cord with it. I am interested in getting one of Acrolinks lower end   interconnects with RCA plugs to go from the Esoteric player to the preamp.

Has anyone heard them and if so, can you describe the sound? Interested in Acrolink only, no other brands.

Thanks

Thanks guys.  All kidding aside, I would like someone who has heard them to chime in as to what type of sound one can expect.
I ordered the Acrolink 7N A2110 cables from The Cable Company at $400.00 a pair.  They don't stock any of the Acrolink cables so need to be ordered.  I placed 1 phone call and 2 email messages and got no response from the Cable Company.  Is this the new normal?
Since my original post in December 2017, I have upgraded all 3 cables on my Esoteric SACD player with Acrolink Cables, Both the digital cable and the analog cables were in the 1200.00 range. I bought them used for each less than half of the price as new. I also have an Acrolink 4030 power cord for the Esoteric player. It has Acrolink branded ends on the cord. I am very satisfied and those cable changes brought up my CD playback up another couple of notches.  It was definitely worth the money.  I should also note that The Cable Company never got back to me on prices so I gave up with them.  I bought the used power cord from a Esoteric dealer in Connecticut.  I purchased the analog cables here and the digital cable on eBay
@ryder,

i have 3 of the Acrolink Cables connected to my Esoteric SACD Player. I am using the PC4030 Power cord which replaced a comparably priced Shunyata cord. The model of my digital cable Is 6ND 5050 II, it retailed for 1200.00. The interconnect cables are 6ND5500 and also retailed for 1200.00. I use the older Model cable which is a six nines cable as it starts with 6N. As I said, these all replaced comparatively priced Shunyata cables.


The bottom line is I love these cables. They are a perfect match to my Esoteric player. I love them so much that I plan on buying another pair of the Acrolink 6ND5500 interconnects to go with my Sony HAPZ1ES music server. I bought all my cables here. The power cord was bought used from Perotta consulting, The digital cable and the interconnect were purchased from two well known establishments on here. Beware of the ones sold on eBay, more than 90% of them are fakes. I was patient and over 2 years time, got the cables I wanted here for about half of retail.


@jafant ,

 

I love the Acrolink cables, they really compliment the Esoteric player.   The internal wiring on the Esoteric player is all Acrolink, so I thought, why not?  I first bought a Acrolink 4030 power cord used, from an Audio store in Connecticut.  Then I bought a Acrolink digital cable off of flea bay, and finally a pair of Esoteric interconnects which were labeled Acrolink from a Canadian dealer.  All cables were bought used at about 50% off.  I could never afford them at full retail!
