Anyone else tried the Acoustic Systems Liveline?

A pair of Franck Tschang's tuned interconnects (see Six Moons reviews) are still breaking in, in my system, but they have already "stomped" my Harmonic Technology Magic 2, HT Pro-Silway III+, and Van den Hul Orchid. While I don't have any at present, from memory I'd also say that they handily vanquish the Nordost Valhalla and Kubala-Sosna Emotion interconnects in my system. They are not HiFi spectacular, but are the most musical and least electronic sounding cables I've ever heard. Interestingly, several recording that have always sounded compressed and confused in spots, which I just attributed to the recording, are rendered cleanly for the first time with these cables and no other system changes.

I recently purchased a pair of ASI LiveLine (RCA 1.5) interconnects. I agree they're livelier, clarity is also greater than my Audioquest King Cobra's. Frequency much wider, but I must say that I also noticed a more natural sound reproduction of instruments. In some recordings in my Baroque collection, I hear instruments I haven't heard before - it's quite surprising! I suspect they might be the last interconnects you purchase, I know I will.
I also should say that they're an excellent compliment to my Tannoy Glenair.
