Previous responders sounded good to me, but the Maestro cables in my system definitely did not! Quad ESL 63's and, at that time, a Classe DR3 VHC power amp. Not known for overemphasizing highs, but the Maestro's turned jazz symbols into annoying fizz. In other systems, maybe they're okay. But my guess is that they're no longer a serious contender in any system, that at a minimum their day is past.
