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.

Not one single industry, aside from elite members of the audiophile clan, use, or would use $10,000.00 pr Meter cables. Not the military, not performers on stage, not the recording industry; in fact just about everything is going wireless or headed that way. Speaker cables and IC cables costing thousands of dollars is becoming absurd...Jim

I might also add that very sophisticated and expensive hospital machines do not have $3,000.00 power cords and a premium hospital grade 120V receptacle costs about $20.00 not $500.00.....Just sayn......Jim
@ boxer12 It doesn't matter! It's all the same science. Regardless of the application. An outlet does one thing - it makes a connection to transfer current from a source to a device "nothing else" the only thing that matters is conductivity, a good connection and quality parts and assembly, in an AC - 120V outlet - the cost is about $20.00, not $500.00. The same applies to cords and cables. I've been into audio for about 40 years and have listened to about every cord, cable and outlet out there - some things are fact and others are total BS...Jim
Keeping it real - I am, of course, talking about above average use with standard 120V or 240V  household use, not for a mega volt, industrial complex.
I do believe there are differences in cables and cords, not always for the better...Jim
@maxima95 Very interesting - I have a friend that is the head purchasing agent for our area's largest medical center. I'll ask if they use that, or anything similar expensive power conditioning units, along with $3,000.00 power cords in their facility - care to make a bet...Jim
 
I was a master machinist and field tech for one of the worlds largest electronic, manufacturing/supply corporations, who sold high grade electronics (everything from giant electrical transformers, to switching gear, to industrial grade outlets, cables and connectors).  if there is some high tech, magical new science about outlets, switchers, cables and connectors that we are unaware of - please do tell.
I can tell you for a fact the best outlets, cables and connectors do not cost $10,000.00 - believe what you want...Jim
It's amazing how someone's new best thing, was someone else's new best thing a decade ago, only now instead of $300.00 it's $3,000.00...Jim
