It's hard for me to replace my NEI 3001 I/Cs. I use them for a phono cable from my TT to the phono stage. XShadows (large) on the TT end and WBTs on the p/s end. I have two other sets with different connectors (vampire & MAS). At one point, I used them all. A change in the system eliminated the need for the last two. It's a very good cable, depth, bass, soundstage & smooth HF are there.
