Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?

I bought some some about a year ago when they first came out.I also ended up using them thru-out my system.
Plinius SA 100 MK III
Bel Canto Pre-1
Audiomeca Mephisto II
Magnepan 1.6's
I have also tried a lot of cables out there and never heard as much effortles inner detail.
Instruments and voices took on the most natural sound I have heard to date.

I've found the Gabriel Gold ICs to be first rate. In my system, they beat Harmonic Tech and Cardas Neutral Ref, which I consider to b a tough wire to beat. The Gabriels brought out dynamic textures without adding brightness or glare. A terrific wire at a terrific price. I hope they come out with a speaker version.

They seem to be made of the same gold alloy wire that a lot of other people are using. What kind of connectors are they using?

Has anyone compared them to the other gold alloy based ICs like the z-squared?

I have completely outfitted my system with Gabriel Gold
Revelalation and Extreme IC'c and speaker wire.
The sound is so lifelike and involving it's scary.
Layers and layers upon music.Soundstaging,imaging and detail
are awesome.
The GG's look and sound nothing like the Z-Squared and use a totally different material.(I owned Z-Squared about a year ago)
I would have to say that cosmetically and sonically the only cable I have owned that came anywhere near the sound of
the GG's were the Stealth Indra IC's.
If you can get a hold of a pair of these great cables(build quality/sonics)I say go for it.
They pop up now and then on auction direct from the designer and can usually be had for a steal.
