Anyone tried Oritek X-1 cables?


I've read the reviews and was curious if anyone's had any first hand experience with these cables and what were your impressions.

Thanks,
Joe

I'm using the Oritek X-2's between preamp and amp, and although I have the X-1's, it sounds so good that I haven't replaced my Signal Cable Silver Resolutions(between RCA juntion box and moving coil transformer) yet. I should at least try this(system synergy, etc.).
Ori has a deal on his X-2 interconnects, if you previously owned the X-1's(no, you don't have to trade in the X-1's). I paid $390(including almost 10% sales tax-I believe) for 25-inches tip-to-tip(.6 meters). They are absolutely incredible. What Ori did with the X-1's, with harmonics, etc., multiply that with the no boundaries of the X-2. They really are in a separate category. For instance, you don't really realize when the record comes to an end. He says even a small amount dominates the system. I have to agree with him. If you listen to analog(1981 or earlier albums, generally), they seem to increase the relaxing(seratonin?) brain waves that analog produces. They aren't limiting whatsoever(it's like an X-1 with no boundaries-the only way that I would compare the two.)
