Similar sound characteractics to MIT cables?

Thanks Jafant, greetings Bo

Thanks Dave. If we all would be the same, it would be very boring here at Audiogon.

True...takes a little friction and applied force to get something done!

To be honest I think it is time audio becomes more open and transparent. This is the only way people will get more value for money.

Beside this new a new perspective and techniques can give many people a much higher result in sound and emotional intensity during listening.

At the end it is not about taking things for yourself, but giving them to others

If you want relaxed, laid back (?), clear, dynamic, natural without harshness, I recommend older CARDAS designed around 2000. They take a long time (100+ hours) to break in, but in the end sound great IMO. They were tuned in and designed on Magnepan speakers. I have owned the 6 foot maggies for 40 years FYI.

For a slightly more neutral sound try Burley Wire cables from Reno Hi-Fi. They are made by a guy that works for Pass Labs and are cheaper (two 8 foot lengths $695). Unknown but great. No break in needed.
