Tuneful Cables by High-End Audio

Belden:

A general studio and microphone cable, perfect for that use - particularly when longer lengths are required.

Makes sense in particular applications.

"@rlb61 I second the Audio Envy cables. They blew my Cardas GR out of the water."

This could be helpful information to others - with a few more supporting details.

Audio Envy is on Generation 10 of the Studio Prestige interconnect cable now.

What version do you have, and what do you like so much more about them -

Can you share more?

Can anyone comment on their experience with Chinese "Odin" interconnect cables in comparison to those described above.  In particular, I am looking for a set of interconnects for my low power SET integrated amplifier.

I have found that some interconnect cables are better suited to specific types of amplifiers. In my case,  something that pairs well with a low power SET. 

@lubachl  Can anyone comment on their experience with Chinese "Odin" interconnect cables in comparison to those described above. 

I have two sets of these connecting DAC to Pre and Pre to Amp. They replaced Belden 1800F (BJC). I cannot say I noticed a lot of difference in this case. My system is Gumby->Freya+ -or- Coda 07x -> Coda #8.

I admittedly have not yet tried a very high end interconnect, so I really do not know what is possible. That said, the ones I bought are very well constructed and appear to use quality components. They are a bit of a hassle to route as they are quite stiff, but once in place it is not an issue. 

Sorry I can't give you a solid answer that they provide a big performance boost, but as always YMMV. It is a fairly low cost experiment, so not too painful if they do not work out.

There is a huge A'gon discussion of the Chinese cables for sale at Aliexpress.  It is recent and there is a wealth of information on the counterfeit Nordhost cables, including the Odins.
