Shunyata Venom IC's review
I have been an denier of the benefit of pricey cabling, but got a pair of Grove Huffman's IC's a while back and they were a clear improvement over my Signal Cable IC's. Later, a pair of Morrow MA2 IC's was a sonic improvement in my bedroom system. I read a recent review of the new Shunyata Venom cables, which was laudatory, but not over the top. For some reason I can't recall, I was prompted to order a pair of them from The Cable Company and got them a couple of days ago. I swapped the GH cables for them and right out of the box, the Venom ICs sounded great. They have wonderful extension and great inner detail without a hint of stridency. I interchanged the GH and Venom IC's several times and the Venom's seemed to my ears to sound "just right", clearly preferable to the very good GH IC's. I never would have expected myself to drop a $300 on a pair of IC's, thinking it out would be a waste of money, but I am at the moment quite enthralled with the sound of these Venom IC's. I see dozens for IC's for sale on AG at what I consider to be budget-busting prices, but I will say the outlay of $300 for these Venom cables appears to be a worthwhile investment. Just my two-sense worth. Mark
