@mbolek I almost pulled the trigger on the XS-5500 as they are in direct comparison of the Neotech's offerings in the Saraha line without the fancy geometry.
Have you received the XS-5500's? If so, what is your impression of the cables?
Xangsane Cryo OCC vs Sterling Silver XLRs
Has anyone tried Xangsane's Cryo'd OCC interconnects? They are three solid core 27awg and one multi strand 31awg for a combined 22awg.
The 4n sterling silver is 20awg made up of 7 .50mm multi strand cores.https://www.xangsaneaudiocable.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=229&product_id=676&sort=p.price&order=DESC
I'm currently running Neotech NEI-3001 MKIIIs but my new mono's are coming in next week so I will need a new 5 meter interconnect. I was originally thinking about Neotech NEI-3001G since, I have noticed the sound difference in the NEI-3001 MKIII compared to the NEI-3002 MKIII.
Does anyone have any real world insight on Xangsane's sterling silver or OOC copper?

@stillbuyingtoys I have not received the 5500. Can’t expect the next day shipments like Amazon... I looked at the pricing again and it has doubled what it was back in Jan (maybe they play the discount game as does Amazon). I figured if I liked the cable out of the box, I would re-terminate with some potentially betters connectors. These will be a good comparison to my DIY Helix OCC builds. Need to figure out which silver version (1105/9003) to try. Probably end up getting both, never can have too many XLRs.... |
@stillbuyingtoys Just received the 5500s. Pretty impressive build quality and very nice packaging (similar to Viborg). Out of box sound is good. I’m not a burn in guy and would be happy adding these to my XLR stable. Added a couple pics to my system folder.
