DiMarzio cables


Just wanted to share my experience of using DiMarzio M-Path RCA interconnects, 1.0M pair.
In another thread when OP asked about what to use for amplification of "heavy music", I suggested he ask Yngwie Malmsteen and use whatever he does. So a few weeks ago I thought why not follow my own advice and not try the cables he uses with his guitars. And that's DiMarzio. You know what, I was really impressed by them. In my very good mid-fi system with the Spacedeck table being the only component above mid-fi, they were almost as good as Purist Audio Maximus for less than 20% the price. Purist had a little richer midrange with a little deeper soundstage but the rest was at least equal. I would say that DiMarzio was a bit more articulate with somewhat better highs. Excellent cable. And for $150 pair new? Great value. I still prefer Purist overall but by very little and not with any recording.
Anyone else has impressions?

Ah, a different league -- and a different application! I don't want to redirect the thread, but I am curious -- better sound, then, from the nice Nak used this way compared to digital options?
I never tried dat or cd recorder if that's what you mean. And if you meant how the recording made on my Nak compares to the cd player that I use (CEC belt drive player), then I can tell you that except for extra background noise it is usually a little better if using best reference tapes especially Maxell Metal Vertex which is so expensive but absolutely the best, at least with my deck. And of course I take the signal directly from phono stage and cd player; no tape-out loop, thank you. The deck does some good equalization in the process of recording, Also I can make the recording sound louder than the original so less volume on the amp and less distortion.
Has anyone tried the DiMarzio XLR cables and care to share their thoughts on them?

I checked Dimarzio's website and other than the basic microphone cable I didn't see the DiMarzio XLR cables that I've seen on headphone.com.

Did the XLR line of cables get discontinued?

Thanks
Agreed,

I auditioned some DiMazio cables/cords in an all Primare system w/ Vienna speakers. The cables/cords in question would have been 4-5 years ago, all were red in color.

A sweet $15K system and these cables were remarkably inexpensive compared to the other gear.
