New Zu Mission cable


For some reason, the other thread on this subject was deleted. I wanted to hear from those who bought the new Mission cable during Zu's recent promotional period. I also would like to open up this thread to impressions of this cable once in your system.

I don't think they've started shipping yet. They're slammed. Tried to place an order last week, and was told they'd get back to me when they weren't getting crushed. Still get the discount- the Zu people are very, very easy to deal with. I'll let you know when I get them. Ordered Mission XLR IC's and the Mission LS cable. Sean Casey told me that Mission LS was warmer than Libtec with solid state gear, but that they hadn't found much of a difference between Libtec and Mission LS with tube amplifiers. Significant, if only because Mission costs about half as much as Libtec.
Haven't tried the Mission LC just yet, but I did plug in the long run XLR to my subwoofer. Improvement was immediate. Biggest thing I noticed was complete elimination of ground noise from the sub on soft passages. Mission did the job very nicely.
Used a long run Mission XLR to the subwoofer. Most noticeable is the reduction in slight ground hum I previously had. Dead quiet with Mission.
I've switched entirely from Libtec to Mission. Just as good, if not better.

Check out the new Zu site. Can't wait to see what's up with The Dominance, "starting" in the low 40K range. OUCH! Premiers at Las Vegas CES in January.
