However, I also tried Audio Sensibility OCC ICs and they were not as good as my center wire + /sheath - OFC ICs so not sure how these IC cables would compare.If you tried the Audio Sensibility copper mid/lower end interconnects, these use stranded copper conductors. They aren't actually that good. However, their top end Signature series uses solid-core pure silver and they are quite good for the money if you are looking for a silver interconnect cable. It uses Furutech XLR terminations which have a heavy coating of gold and help compensate the silver to add a warmth to the sound. But back to Erik's initial post, I find these new Neotech cables to be very interesting. I have not worked with the Neotech rectangle conductors, but I agree with others that they would be a pain to terminate. The performance could be quite excellent, but I've never tried them. |
@erik_squires - take a look at this DIY option - lots of members like them :-) Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling | Audiogon Discussion Forum I now use Solid Neotech UP-OCC copper wire on all my Helix cables and it is very good Regards - Steve |
