I would expect you will like them a lot. The big question is really if you could have been just as happy (or maybe even more happy) for less money. Personally, and it's just me, I wouldn't spend that much without hearing/knowing first. I hope you love them!
Blindly deafly? bought Purple Flare cables...
Blindly (deafly?!) bought Nordost Purple Flare cables yesterday for my Rotel RA-1062 integrated amplifier, RCD-1072 CD player and B&W DM602 S3 speakers that I bought almost a deacde ago and never used (long story)...
I bought the analog interconnect, the speaker cables and the power cord for 2 dollars shy of a Grand after tax!
PLEASE tell me I did alright!
This exact system is no longer in stores and I don't think many places would let me bring my gear in and switch out cables...and it would have been a total hassle even if they would.
And I'm eager to finally start listening to my stereo.
I called A BUNCH of Rotel dealers yesterday, to try to get advice on what cables would pair up well with my equipment and I got a different answer out of everyone -
Audioquest, Nordost, Transparent, Tributaries, Kimber...
But a few mentioned the Nordost White Lightning.
I decided to take a drive to northern New Jersey to a BEAUTIFUL shop that claimed that they had all levels of Nordost and Transparent cables.
But when I got there they only had the whole lineup of Nordost cables and a few Transparent cables lying around.
The guy highly recommended the Purple Flares for my equipment - swears I'll be happy.
I could have gotten the White Lightning cables as a few people recommended, but I figured since I'm buying without hearing I'd 1) be safer moving one up the line, and 2) spending that kind of money on cables I'll have less doubt and worry that I didn't get good enough cables.
