Morrow Audio Cables


Hi,

I just purchased some cables from Morrow and wanted to post my opinion. Up until now I've switched in and out of speaker cables (nothing expensive, 200-400 dollars) and would hear a difference, but not so much better or worse - just different.

I was pretty skeptical but wanted to make sure I was getting the most out of my systems, so I gave them a shot.

My main system is an Anthem 225i, Musical Fidelity A5.5 CD player, and Usher CP 6311 speakers. I bought Ma4 interconnects and Sp4 speaker cables. The cables made my system come alive. Before now I was missing a fair amount of midrange apparently. Highs are beautiful but not harsh, lows seem rock solid. Before now I felt I was compromising with cables, music seemed clear but thin, or rich but a little veiled. Hope that makes sense. I'm not the scientific type, so I'm unsure if the interconnects or speaker cables made the difference. But I know this, I'm not screwing with it to find out.

I also bought 5 Ma1 interconnects to place between my adcom prepro and 5 channel Adcom amp. My Monitor Audio speakers sound awesome. I've never had as much seperation in my setup, especially in my rear channels. Being 53, I have been struggling with dialog from my center- now that I have switched to the Morrow, clarity is awesome and no issues with dialog.

The guys at Morrow were nice and did what they said. Morrow has a pretty good return policy, and are easy to work with. Hope this helps someone looking for cables. (I have no affiliation with Morrow, FYI.)

In my case it was a great investment.

I concur Runnin! I had the SP3 biwires as my first taste of Morrow's cables and later tried the MA1 and then the MA2, I then bit the bullet and tried the MA3 xlr's from my pre to my A21 and the rest is history! I did last year upgrade my Oppo95 to the 105 and added a pair of MA4 xlr's, the results are incredible. I must note that my Halo has an SilverStar fuse and I use PS Audio AC12 up top on the power conditioner and an AC10 on the Halo. When curious do try Mikes powercables a MAP 2 on my Marantz 8801 indeed has the shares the same character as the rest of his line up!
Nice set up, you've really looked after all of the details there! I'm hoping to run a couple of dedicated lines to my system next year, 2 15 amp breakers should do it, and see about a whole house surge suppression system, but the PS Audio unit would do that and more, I'm guessing.
Hey Folks (hope Uncledemp will tolerate my partial hijack here). I bought a used set of MA-1 ICs (2m) to go between pre-amp and mono blocks back in June. Only recently got them installed. Trying to audition a new pre-amp (new to me...it's a used CJ 17LS). Have had it a couple of days now. Sometimes things sound awesome and sometimes thing sound awful. Night to night things seem to change. One night kind of harsh. The next it's like "where's the bass?". I had a 10 hr burn-in put on the Morrows before i got them but then they ended up sitting in a box for about 3 months. I can't decide if it's the pre or the ICs (going through the dreaded sub-100 hr Morrow break in all over again). Any opinions? Hate to return the pre if it's the ICs. Apologies to Uncledemp.
The MA1 IC are their entry level cable and from what you are experiencing, they are Not totally burned-in; typically 300+ hours...

If you're looking for a cable that does everything very well, I have a pair of 1.5M Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper IC.

Thanks, Wig. I know the MA-1s are their entry level. My thought when I got them (they were used) was use them to check out what the Morrow Audio buzz was about, then upgrade afterwards with their trade up program. Thanks for your input. Just an fyi, I need 2 meters on these ICs. BTW - nice system and room you have.
