Audioquest Niagara 5000 or 7000

Anyone have any experience with either of these two Products? I find them intriguing and might consider buying one.

They are terminated (at least the upper lines), packaged and serviced in their USA headquarters. Not sure about their current high-end connectors (which are wonderful, across all types of cable speaker/power/IC), but when they used the Bocchino audio (RCA/XLR), those would have been made in Australia. The 5000 and 7000 are definitely assembled in USA, and it appears to be quite a job.

Good to read that the 5000 and 7000 conditioners are made in U.S.A. Happy Listening!
