Cardas Golden Cross no longer offered by Cardas ?


I just found out that the Golden Cross IC line , as well as many others are no lnger being made or offered by Cardas. I wonder why . I have a feeling that a lot of their newer cables were not selling that well and a lot of people were buying used , which does not help Cardas sell any .
Well, i currently have a pair of ICs for sale on ebay. Maybe i Should not have done that, as i would expect their value will go way up now .
Here is a link to the cables offered. At the bottom you will find the ones they no longer make , under the Legacy Heading

It is the first time I post an answer here, because for me the Golden Cross just sounds right. Perhaps the Golden Cross is not neutral, but what is neutral?. In my opinion, it is just natural sounding. It is the only cable I tried that doesn't sound artificial and hifi, and that does fully justice to my MFA Luminescence preamp and Jadis JA200 power amp, both owned since 1990. If I put just one neutral cable (in the audiophile sense) in there, music is gone. You just need the right tubes in your amps and Golden Cross interconnects and speaker cables. I have the Golden Crosses in my system for 5 years now and I'm done. I never even think about changing anything again. It is just the fullbodied, harmonically rich and natural sound I was looking for. If you play a musical instrument yourself, you will love this cable.
For all musiclovers, it is a pity Cardas stopped offering the Golden Cross. Sadly, all good things tend to disappear... Same with good NOS tubes. Have fun listening to your music everybody!
