Anyone heard the new Virtual Dynamics Revelation?

I have been experimenting with the Revelation Signature and have found that these really take at least 500+ hours to sound their best. The difference between the first couple hundred hours and 500+ is pretty amazing.

At first I was questioning the signature over the standard Revelation but wait and you will be rewarded!

Dmurfet: I've discovered that if you just plan out how the Revelation cables should be routed and pre-bend them, the fitment is a piece of cake. I have successfully routed several pair of ICs, a Rev power cable and 10' bi-wired Rev cables (4 cables to each speaker) thru some very tight tolerances in this manner without too much brain damage. It just takes a little planning ahead of time.

In my case, the stiffness actually became an advantage because once in place, they are held into position by being braced against a wall. Also, I might add, they are WELL WORTH a little installation time - the sound is quite amazing and the more VDs in the chain, the better the sound, IMO.

I guess you are right, the pair I have are a bit too long for my needs and hence need to be coiled to take up the slack. Also the spades on them are too big to attach properly to either my Wilsons or my Krell. I have organised a demo of the Kubala Sosna Emotion cables which should arrive roughly when I need to return these, so I'll post my thoughts, but I must admit, given these lofty heights of fidelity, I get the impression I might just think they are both very good and that's that!

Dmurfet: FYI - Cardas makes a special banana connector that accepts spades and they are very reasonable. I am using them on my amp with no apparent sound degradation and they have also simplified the installation. You might want to pick up a few pair just to have around as you try different cabling.....

Stereotimes.com just did a review on the Revelation series cables. Perry compared this series with some other cables in the review. Rick also explains how the Revelation cable came to market. Nice Review and also confirms why I enjoy VD cables in my system. Read and enjoy the review!! Brian
