Esoteric P02X, D02X (and C02X), any direct listening impressions are appreciated....

Thank you for the great and detailed description! May have to give them a try!

Will give you the best pricing and full price back on the pc.  Forget the Sextet for now, what you must try is the STEALTH Audio Cables V.16 Universal power cord with tuning collar pictured in my virtual syatem.  This one cord will make it feel like you have upgraded a component.  As a full service authorized STEALTH dealer, if I can be of any help, please don't hesitate to call and feel free to stop by The STEALTH House if you are ever in the Boston area.

Good Day...great new and prior pics on the Stealth House website; congratulations on becoming a dealer!  That explains why you moved away from all of your KS cables...

With respect to the Stealth Varidig Sextet V.16 cables, I wonder from the website
http://www.stealthaudiocables.com/products/Sextet/index.html
what is the current version of this cable? The photos look different and in one case look like someone took an older Varidig Sextet, cut the connectors off and put on some new V.16 connectors with current labels while another looks like a flashy new outer tech-braid. etc...
The BNC version looks different as well so I'm wondering what the current version of the cable looks like and what are its capabilities.  Is the tuning collar magnetic in nature (I'm guessing it is); if so, why bring a magnet near a square or sine-wave (depending upon whether it is in use for 110-ohm, 75-ohm or 50-ohm (sine wave) signals....)? Very curious about the thought process behind this advancement and how it works...

On the subject of the power cords, I just checked out the website; they seem to be Helium filled, very beautiful and substantial looking. As the site points out they have a Helium dielectric and Helium is 15 times less in molecular weight than air which also means it can pass through membranes that much easier and faster.  What lifetime warranty is provided to ensure the cables retain 100% of their Helium dielectric, i.e. what containment membrane is utilized to keep the Helium in place particularly given the fact that we put cables in our systems and do bend them/place them differently than they arrive from the vendor in their packaging. The new Stealth power cords look very rigid and shaped; how do they hold up to normal use and time and what warranty is in place to ensure the cable holds it Helium fill for life?

On a side note, I'd like to have feedback from others on my original question regarding anyone's feedback who has picked up the Esoteric P-02X and D-02X.

I will answer your questions when I have more time but please let me correct you that I did not dump Kubala to become a STEALTH dealer .  It so happens that I demoed a Sextet AES snd was so impressed that I demoed a V.16 UNI pc and V16 dream sw then bought them and dumped all my Kubala within two weeks on gon to fund wiring my system with STEALTH.  Becoming a STEALTH dealer was purely something that sprouted up.  I don't need a second job and certainly don't need a second income ESPECIALLY in the doggy dog world of retail high end audio.  It was in no way a business decision but a decision based on my excitement about the product, the product's build design and science.  I don't build the cables nor am I the engineer but I will inquire with the lead engineer at STEALTh and get back to you.

Understood....thank you.  Looking forward to hearing what you get back from the engineers on those questions!
