Darwin Cables still in business ?
Hello, Darwin Cables is alive and well. Check our most recent ad on Audiogon. We’re offering a very nice special. We’re usually pretty prompt in responding to emails. It’s possible an email could have been swallowed up by either our spam filter or... 
Stage III Concepts Cables - Any Advice/Feedback/Thoughts is deeply appreciated.
Thanks for the kind words about Darwin Cables fsmithjack. As remarkable as the Darwin Truth's are, The Truth II's are even better. The original design was very stripped down. The Truth II is more rugged and yet still extracts even more details fro... 
Totem Arro vs Totem Sttaf. Which one image better?
Having owned both, I preferred the Arros precision and imaging. The Sttaf is less articulate but bigger on the low end. In a perfect world I would pair the Arros with a fast sub, but they are still nice as stand-alone speakers. 
Review: Darwin Ascension Interconnect
I had a chance to talk to John (Roxy54) this week and was pleased when he told me that after the extended break-in we advised with the Darwin Digital, it's a keeper. I'm sure John will chime in here soon enough. Most of our cables start fast but d... 
Wall Outlet Oyaide, Furutek, Wattgate, and others
Afterburner 8 was better than the Porter Ports—huge upgrade. 
Jolida Fusion
As a matter of fact, I own one. Excellent CD player, great information retrieval, slightly dry in presentation. Very nice DAC. 
Need help RCA Interconnects but new Balanced Gear
Great discussion folks. Hope I am not too late to the party. Tony from Darwin Cables, here. Almarg is correct that Balanced and Unbalanced are by their very nature different animals. I take a lead role in voicing Darwin Cables and have specific re...

Hey folks, Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences. Budmoe, your break experience does ring true with our Ascension cables. My experience with all of the Darwin Cables is they start fast but take a good while to really stretch out. No... 
Silver cables
RE: Darwin Cables... Hi Minilogo and others. Sorry I caught this discussion late but I did want to clear up one thing regarding Darwin Pricing. Our original Darwin Silver IC was introductory marketed at $195 as a strategy simply to get the cable h... 
Review: Darwin Cable Silver IC Interconnect
Highstream, thanks for sharing your happy ending. The Darwin Balanced Cables do take longer than our Unbalanced cables to reach peak performance. While our cables (unbalanced) usually perform to a very high level very quickly, we have found that t... 
Darwin Ascension: audio video revolution review
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 t... 
Any Michael Bub'le fans.......
As a matter of fact, I am wrapping up a Michael Buble stocking stuffer for my 75-year old stepfather, a former jazz drummer who has turned me on to all sorts of great musicians like Dinah Washington and Sarah Vaughn. I am also including a k.d. lan... 
Are there any albums you consider perfect?
Lindsay Buckingham. Out of the Cradle. Awesome from the first note to the last. No filler. After hearing this, there is no doubt Buckingham was the engine that powered Fleetwood Mac at it's peak. I agree on Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Other contend... 
Dedicated lines & outlet setup question
Hi, I recently ran dedicated 20 amp lines to my mono blocks. I used Porter Ports. I feel this improved the blackness of the background and the effortlessness of the amplifier. You might try giving your amp one dedicated line. Also, beefing up your...
