Scottyw: Thanks for the feedback on the review! It's hard to put into words what your hearing with these cables sometimes.
Leica man: I think you are on to something - I have noticed the settling-in issue with the old SR cables I was using. This will make it hard for folks who attend Audio shows to really hear what they are capable of.
They are still settlingin/breakingin - now exceeding 250 hours - and still getting better in almost every way.
What a blast!!! I'm pulling cds out that I haven't heard in months - it a revelation. It's not just new details - but a new lense to view the whole show. The soundstaging, plus the incredible detail and the new level of micro dynamics - make for a new experience.
Just finished Steely Dan's Aja - chills! Fagens Nightfly on DVD-A freaking amazing! The syns where wrapping around the room..
Lifehouse - No Name Face, what bass! Jason Wades voice just hangs in the air, as real as can be imagined.
Chopin - Polonaises the Vanguard Classics reissue on SACD . the emotion expressed by Brendel piano deeply stirring.
Rise Against - The Sufferer and the Witness. Driving, the growling guitar riffs perfectly captured - Bass you can feel in your chest. Always controled and never fatiguing.
I would love to hear these cables compared to the Tara Zeros, I can't believe they could be that much better. I wonder if they would lend me a set for a few days? Delivered by Brinks of course!
Enjoy the great sounds!
BTW: Absolute Sound latest issue has a preliminary review of the PRs. The slightly closed in sound was attributed to the speaker cables not the ICs. I hope they give them a chance to settle-in before the formal review.
