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

Additional MC-0.5's should continue to make an improvement. I now have 15.

I have 15 on one dedicated 20 amp line for my amp.  17 on a line that feeds my pre amp and disc player. 15 of the MC O5s are plugged into the wall and 2 plugged into my MC 6 Hemisphere that feeds the pre amp and disc player. Grand total of 32 MC O5s. each time i add some the sound got better. I will be adding more later.
Enjoy Pete
MM Celyea, I have 16 MC-0.5s in one circuit all at the wall.
I usually get 4 at a time because they are cheaper in sets of four.
Great improvement every time I ad more.
more intimate, involving, real.
I heard a story that one person has 101 of them.
Cheers D
Thanks ddraudt for sharing that someone has 101 of the mc-0.5's. Just when I think I'm off the deep end it's nice to know there's someone crazier than I am.  :)

I have 14 at the moment and all on the same circuit on 4 outlets. As much as I'm impressed with what they do to my stereo system I'm just as "wowed" by the affect on my 5 yr old plasma tv. As a bonus it's like I got one of the new LG oled tv's.  
Mtrot, Rick cables are so good even good amps can't do what they do to the system.i have experience what you have experience, yes his cables are worth every penny..
