MIT cables and super tweeters

Agreed, DrJoe!

To answer the OP's question instead of the conjecture offered by some, you'll be fine using a super tweeter with the MIT cables. However, I would suggest you confer with MIT with any question you may have about their products as they are quite helpful.

DRjoe,

A lot of time with the relatively cheapo MITs in my system.

As I said, I like them a lot and can recommend them to others.

I have no doubt the high end stuff is even better.

When I read some of their literature, some of it made sense to me and some of it did not. I do not recall the details, only that I finished still somewhat skeptical. The white-paper I read did answer the question I had going in regarding the boxes used, why they are there and how to orient the ICs correctly.

Luckily, the MIT products I have used do deliver so I can forgive the use of moderate "techno-babble" I recall detecting. Its a common malaise in this market. MITs case was no worse and perhaps even slightly better than most.

In the end, the pleasure the sound delivers is all that matters.

I recall that MIT speaker cables tries to even out the power factor through the addition of filters. This relies on the assumption that audio equipment are supposed to work with an even power transfer. It is an interesting idea but I am not sure how many speakers and amplifiers are designed to work that way (if any?). Perhaps Ralph can comment from an amplifier design perspective?

That some equipment sounds better with filters is not surprising or unusual given the variety of stuff out there. I

I'd suggest the only way to know would be to simply try it and see.

Ralph has an excellent paper on the subject at his site:

I have great respect for his writings and his work.

I haven't seen enough information, though, to be able to comment on the effects, if any, of the MIT boxes on power factor.
