Stealth cables

Agree with the long break-in. I have both M-7 and PGS in the system and have definitely liked them over other cables. BTW, brittle would be the last word I'd use to describe PGS, so you may want to either see if break in makes a difference, or look elsewhere for a cause. Just an opinion.

I can echo Cjr's sentiment about the PGS. I like 'em a lot, and to my ears there's certainly nothing offensive about them. I never broke-in a pair, since I bought mine used.

I was trying the PGS. I have Rogue Magnum 88 tube amp, a Rogue Magnum 99 pre, a rogue stealth phono stage, MMF 7 TT and Proac Studio 250 speakers. They were definatly broken in. I just felt the PGS cables lost control of the layering of the instruments. Sounded congested. Maybe it is just the way I like my music to sound. I certainly am not bashing the stealth cables. I guess that is why there are a zillion different manufactures of cable. On the other side of the spectrum. I have also tried Kimber PBJ and did not like them either. Maybe I am a little anal:-)

I have tried the Stealth PGS between an EAD TheaterMaster-8 and PowerMaster-1000. The sound was very similar to the Audience AU-24 I/C in my system. It was hard to distinguish the difference in I/C cables on the high end, the Stealth PGS possibly being a little bright, but it also sounded a little fuller down low . I spent significantly less than $2000 on the PGS and am very happy. The M-7 I/C's were smooth but unspectacular, a very nice cable for the money though.

For a long time I used the Stealth PGS-3D in a long run to my amps. Even when I had Siltech G5 elsewhere, the Stealths in this vital link showed the great improvements with the other cables. I nevertheless think the PGS does sound like it metal, namely gold. They are very smooth and lack the slight brightness of silver. I tried many cables to replace these 4 m. PGS but they always proved better. I could never afford Siltech G5 interconnects in this length, but suspect they would have been better.
