Stealth cables

I'll chime in. I use Stealth PGS from My pre to amp and like it alot. Seems very smooth an uncolored, very natural. Of course cable synergy is important, and I bought mine direct from Stealth at auction for way below the Retail price, $400.00 for a meter , give or take a couple of bucks is a fair price, but anyway, I was just talking with John at the cable company a few months ago, about what my various cables were worth, and when I mentioned Stealth PGS, he said he would not take them . Kind of shocked I asked why. His response was there are alot of counterfeit Stealth Cables out there. Interesting.

I'm not sure there is such thing as counterfit Stealth PGS.
My local hifi shop won't take anything unless is name brand like MIT, transparent, Audioquest, NBS, Audio Note, Synergistic research, XLO... etc. Not many people know about Stealth because it is a small shop. It is hard for the hifi shop to make money with this type of used cable.

I think the counterfeit Stealth Cables comment merely meant that he felt he could not sell them.

I agree with Tbg. More than likely The Cable Co. didn't want to touch them. They do tend to stick with internationally known and advertised brands. I once contacted The Cable Co. and asked them what they thought of Sonoran Plateau cables and he had never heard of Sonoran.Makes me wonder if the Cable Co. guys ever read these threads.

You could be right, but I dont believe so. He did sound sincere. Also when I mentioned Z-Squared he immediately said he never heard of them. Not limiting this conversation to Stealth, I wonder if their are counterfeit cables out there. It seems to me a very enterprising thief could duplicate the look of the higher end brands rather easily.
