Goertz MI2 with Sim I-5


When I play Bach MORIMUR/ THE HILLIARD ENSEMBLE/ CHRISTOPH POPPEN Cd, it sounds like they sing in side of big with full of reverbration. With my old cheap cable, I didn't have this much reverb.

Though my sim runs cool without Zobel network, I wonder
whether it would be a hint of amp oscilation.

I'd like to share your experience.

If your amp is running noticeably warmer, you do need the zobels. I would refrain from running the amp with the Goertz until you can install the appropriate impedance networks to take care of this problem. In the meantime, go back to using your older cables and see how they compare now that you've gotten used to the Goertz somewhat. This is not to say that you've heard your system with the Goertz running at optimum performance as of yet though.

The zobel's should be available from the dealer that you purchased them from ( if you bought new ) or directly from Goertz at a very nominal charge if you bought used.

As to the "echo's" that you're hearing, it is possible that you are now hearing the reverb that was originally added to the recording. This is VERY common, as it helps to fill out a voice and add "body" ( if properly used ) while somewhat helping to cover flaws in the vocal performance.

From your comments, it seems as if you've got more apparent volume with the Goertz than what you previously had with another cable. Am i reading that correctly ? Sean

My guess is that the sound filled out with the Goertz, giving it more apparent weight and impact and apparent volume. It is possible that your amp is actually loading up slightly better, but i doubt if it would be enough to make a huge difference. Sean

I add zobel network and my amp run less warmer than before.
Thanks all for your interest in my question.

Glad to hear it. Hope you like the cables. Keep in mind that if they have the factory terminated silver spades on them, you will need to clean them once in a while. They do oxidize, but silver oxide is conductive. Not a big deal, but something to check out once in a while. Sean
