There is no other car that is LIKE a ROLLS ROYCE. You can convince yourself the same build quality and riding comfort can be had for much less, but this is denial. We all want to enter the high-end audio arena, however some of us must sit up in the cheaper seats while others sit at the sideline. Your interconnects and speaker cables are just as critical as every other component in your audio chain. You should invest as much in your interconnects as you would in any other component. It is a component. Why bother with Stereophile Class A listed components if the interconnects and speaker cable are not themselves capable of revealing every audio nuance you pay to hear. You cannot cheap out on interconnects, speaker cable, AC cable, power conditioning, etc. Otherwise you are wasting your time and money. With that being said, as long as you are enjoying the music EMOTIONALLY, you are doing fine. Also, stop watching your expensive, huge, flat screen TV with a $5.00 HDMI cable. Upgrade your HDMI cable and see what your flat screen really has to offer you.
Siltech G5 against the rest of the world.
I finally received the Siltech Compass lake G5 interconnects. They have an official price tag of $7500 per meter pair.I would recommend that we save ourselves from a discussion if this price will ever be justified for any cable. We all know that this is a stratospheric price level and hardly anybody will be able to afford such a cable.
But I have to admit that even the well known Valhalla stands beaten in its corner by this cable.
This cable has done great damage to me: It has shown what potential lies hidden in my system, and during the two days I was auditioning this cable, I have learned , that my system is capable of conveying an awesome rich, detailed, sound, which was hidden before I put these cables in.
It will be very tough to even go back to the Valhalla.
How can I can I keep on listening from now on with satisfaction, if I know that I am being kept from hearing the fine nuances which really justify the mane "high end" by using a lesser cable?
I think that my only chance lies in taking up a second mortgage and buy this cable eventually. I have to look at it from the only perspective possible: This is a lifetime investment, since I will never have to bother again about interconnects for the rest of my audiophile life.
Or does someone see another solution, which has somehow slipped by my attention, since I admit, I have become biased in my opinions recently?
