New Zu Mission cable

My turn to chime in.

After about a 300 hour constant burn-in period in a seperate system I installed the Zu Mission SCs in my main system. They replaced a Zu WAX SCs that I had purchased earlier in the summer.

I've been listening for a bit and I have noticed a I'm not nearly as much listening fatigue as I was getting with the Zu WAX SCs. The Mission speaker cables definitely present a smoother mid-range and treble than the WAX SCs. The treble on the Zu WAX was really kind of thick.

The bass response from the Mission SCs is on par with the WAX SCs. I'm also still getting the details in the music I listen to from the Mission SCs that I also had with the WAX SCs previously. I hadn't noticed a significant difference with noise between the 2 sets of cables.

Jedinite24, have you added any Mission power cords into the mix?

In May/June when I put in Wylde interconnect and Libtec speaker cables, I also spent 300+ hours burning it in. The resolution was undeniably better but it still sounded a bit edgy to me. Then the BoK power cord arrived and I plugged it into the integrated amp. With no further burn-in it immediately brought the sound into a sort of synergistic focus.

Hi Johnnyb53

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to call Zu about the BoK power cords. They are on sale right now. I've never spent more than $50 on a power cord so I have to try to open my mind to bucking up for the Zu BoKs. Currently I'm using 10 AWG power cords from Atlona that I got from their closeout sale a year or so ago. I didn't think about the Mission PCs because I had the Atlona PCs on all my equipment and to replace all the Atlona PCs with Zu Mission PCs would have cost me more $ than what I had at the time.

Thanks again.

Jedi -- ask them too if they'll extend the promo price to you for Mission power cords, if interested. Since you bought during the initial promo period, they'll likely let you buy more Mission at the sale price.

The difference between Bok and Mission sale prices isn't that much.

I must say these are opening up really well. The bass is still awesome, feel and defined and the soundstage is growing in height and width. Mids are forward and overall my sound has improved over the Varial. 100 plus hrs Now I guess
