I sent you a PM
Audio envy - dang!
I usually post on AG when I have an issue or concern, so I’m happy for once it’s to praise a new product, in this case Audio Envy’s IC.
I use an ARC Classic 60 amp with a Herron 1A preamp. The AE cable went between these two.
I run an ARC Phono pre PH3se from my VPI prime as source.
My speakers are Thiel CS2.4’s
Out of the box a bit bright, But after a few hours that just went to strait up transparent - I mean freaking crystal clear. No tonal aberrations. Smooth, with no etched highs. Voices sound right, Natural. Soundstage opened up, as you might expect when things get clearer.
The best part was how inexpensive they were. They made my Cardas Clear Light interconnects I was using sound clouded by contrast. The Cardas was about x3 the cost of the AE’s.
BTW, this wasn’t “I think I hear differences”, this was “I’ll never use those Cardas in this system again, and where is my IPad, I need to order my next set!”
And that’s just what I did.

@charliee ….You need minimum 9-10 inches of clearance. The male AC plug is 5 inches long. |
The used Prestige interconnect cables arrived today. I’m running them thru some familiar music. So far I’m not disappointed. They have replaced Analysis Plus Oval ones. Soundstage width is pretty consistent with the AP’s. There seems to be a bit more depth. The upper end has a bit more twinkle. Not bright at all. Another first impression is edges seem a little sharper. Perhaps like a pocket knife compared to a buck knife. Right off the bat,these are definitely a great value,and I totally understand the high praise. |
