Morrow Audio re-design announcement: No more Ag coated Cu; Increased numbers of runs.

Just got a notice in my Email about this. Seems like the new design went into production in June. It does have me scratching my head a bit. I’m wondering if any Morrow Audio cable users (old or new design) have comments. The link will take you to the announcement that provides details on the new cable design including instructions for determining whether someone has received old or new design cables.

The US Navy uses Teflon silver coated copper so it probably can’t be too bad. I’ve used it. It sounds good.


Right? Especially with all the Krell and B&W Nautilus speakers they have running around those aircraft carriers and F-15s. 

Come on! :) Suitability for the Navy doesn't make them necessarily suitable for audio. But I have to admit, those cables are pretty sexy when you can find them on e-bay.

Ag coated copper for whatever reason takes time to break in, and then sounds just as good as pure copper. :) 

I'd be curious to know if after breaking in you find trading them in worthwhile. 

Pure silver on the other hand is the most neutral and uncolored cables I have ever used, which has pluses and minuses. The minus, if you are using your cables for warmth or better imaging, they will not deliver at all.
