High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz


In December 2011,I wrote that High Fidelity cables led by cable designer Rick Schultz was putting together a new cable.The cable came to market as CT-1.The CT-1 has FINALLY made it into my system!I had obtained a version of the prototype that Rick had been working on.It blew my previous reference Genesis by Virtual Dynamics.I thought I had finally found my end with this cable.This prototype delivered to my ears "Nirvana".Could I be at the end of my quest for the ultimate sound?
No. I received two pairs of CT-1 to replace my prototypes.They went into the system this past Friday.Unable to dedicate time until Sunday listening,I stole a few moments,ducking away from company with anticipation.My guest could tell even with the music set for"ambiance"something was intriguing and I was in for a treat!
The experience:
First off,CT-1 was very user friendly.Installation was simple;the cable is very nice and light.The female RCA fit beautifully unlike any I had found in other cable.It was secure and reliable.It seemed much thought was dedicated to developing a designer fit to an aesthetically stunning RCA connector.Install entailed a few wiggles to ensure what seemed like a compression fit on my RCA.
It was 2-3 hrs. for the 1st step of break in to be complete.At that point I had something different!Today,although they only have 10-12 hrs. on them,I can`t put into words how much my system has transformed.Believe me,I loved my prototypes.However....there is simply no comparision.
The clarity and sound is so natural.
The soundstage is like nothing I ever heard.Resoulution is breathtaking and inner detail is simply hard to believe possible.
The sound has transended and now it simply does not seem as thought I have speakers.
My system is musicians playing music.
I am told with time they will improve and I trust that as it was revealed with the prototypes.I wanted to share my thoughts with you that now.
Unequivocally,a testament to High Fidelity,as the name declares.
High Fidelity Cables for me,the last word on it,after 12 hours!
Truly Amazing

I  now have 8 of MC-0.5's 

There are 2 each on my 3 dedicated circuits.

Extra 1 on my PS Audio P-10

And 1 on the outlet strip for my Cable modem, router, switcher, and the 8 way powered connector that my house RG6 cables are attached.

Just add a MC O.5 to my system, plugged it into a dedicated 20 amp line that my amp is on. WOW right out of the case and it sounded like i had moved up the Esoteric line. The sound stage has not really changed, but everything base midrange and highs sound much richer with no bloat or thinning. Much more clean sounding detail. Going to listen to it for a couple of days, then add one more on a line that is not dedicated that feeds Ps Audio p10 which has my pre amp and sacd/ cd player on it. So far this is the best tweak i have heard.

Hi Ozzy
The MC o.5 on your Ps audio P10 is it plugged into P10 or the plug that feeds the P10? I have one more to add and i could plug it into the wall plug with the P10 or into the back of the P10. What  was best for you any info?
Thanks Pete

MC 6 power conditioner is fully burned in now. It has about 250 hours on it now.  Great power conditioner at this point. Very open and clear. I also agree with the immediacy description as for as how it makes the music sound.  
@68pete,  
Do you have other HFC products in your system and if so what?
I ask because I also received two MC O. 5's yesterday and added them onto (two) of my independent dedicated circuit outlets. One for my amp and second for my preamp.
