Darwin Ascension: audio video revolution review

I understand now. Apparently, Tony is simply marketing the cables on ebay under the same name as he uses on Audiogon. There's nothing wrong with that. I am curious though to know if he is using them in that beautiful system of his.

System? I thought it was a display room at a high end audio store.
Very nice.
Come to think of it, I'd like to know too.

All the best,

Nonoise,
I received the Darwin digital cable in the mail yesterday. This is a major aceivement at a bargain basement price as far as I am concerned. Great clarity and focus for sure, but no artificial brightness. This cable replaced my LAT International (their top of the line model 3 years ago) which was my first good digital cable. I was very pleased with it, but knew that there was room for improvement. This Darwin is quite a leap ahead in simply sounding more life like and authentic. I do believe that the low mass connectors and air dialectric are likely the reason.
Now if I could only afford the interconnects.
Thanks for the recommendation. I won't be looking for a digital cable for a long time.

Roxy54,
I'm happy to have been of help and glad things worked out for you. I can get a bit effusive when it comes to something I really like and just wanted to help get the info out on these cables.

As for the ICs, all I can say is squirrel away a bit here, a bit there, and it just may work out for you. These cables aren't going anywhere anytime soon. :-)

All the best,
Nonoise

Hi Roxy54, I regret that I have not updated the cable information on my Symphonic Line system. I will get on that! Yes, we build them and we use them! Naturally I have upgraded from to the Darwin Ascensions.

My Symphonic Line system has been key to the development of the Darwin cables. It is very resolving. I have tuned the room from scratch. I have other Symphonic Line gear not featured on this site we use to test XLRs as well as other cables. Before any cable ever "makes the cut" it is blind tested in a variety of superb gear.

I am beta testing some amazing speaker cables, too! Watch for the announcement. We really appreciate the interest in our design.
