I ordered a set of the ICs when Paul told me he was thinking of bringing them back, because my experience with the Double Shotgun speaker cables I purchased from him was stunningly good. I absolutely swear by his speaker cables, so trying the ICs was a no brainer for me.
Previously I had been using a pair of MAC Ultra+ silver ICs hooked up between my phono preamp and my amp, so when the Clear Day ICs arrived I decided to replace the MACs with them to directly compare. I could hear the difference (and improvements) immediately, and they were not even burned in yet. The clarity of sound, the bass and mid range, and the soundstage were all improved noticeably. My experience with his ICs was not nearly as dramatic as when I switched to his speaker cables, but it was enough of an improvement for me that I decided to order a second pair of his ICs. For $175 the Clear Day ICs are a bargain IMO. Paul uses the Eichmann RCA plugs on these, which are much nicer than Neutrik RCA plugs than many high end cable makers use. Paul also offers a free 30 day trial on all his cables so you have nothing to lose in trying them other than return postage if you end up returning them.
