Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?


Hi-
Any one else out there using these Gabriel Gold IC's?
I need to know if it is me or if anyone else finds them as good as me.
I bought a pair on auction a while back and compared them to my Stealth cables.
After about a week of going back and forth I found the Gabriel Golds to have bettered my Stealths and bought more.
Is it me?
Just wondering what some other folks who bought them think of them.
Thanks for the input.

In my opinion the Eichmann connector is one of,if not the best out there.It does not interfere with the cable.The less interaction the better.Some people will pay big dollars for audio jewelry that looks beefy and sounds like @#$%.
I love the forum for discussion,however,I am always bewildered when some who does not own,heard or seen a product in person always seems to have the keenest insight.
I own the GG's and would say that the build quality and sound of these cables rival if not surpass anything that I have heard in 30 years.Stealth Indra could be considered DIY along with Shunyata and many other meticulously hand built cables.
I have to agree.
The forum should be a positive format for members to share information.For someone to make assessments of a product whether it be a cable,component,etc without any personal experience,knowledge of,or even information supplied by another member is not called for.

First of all, I meant no insult. DIY cables does not imply amateur build quality. In fact, often DIY cables are of the highest quality. My reference to the use of the Eichman bullet plug was one of approval. As was the use of a "similiar" wire made by Audio Metallurgy. A wire that is of a gold plated alloy construction. I'm sure the GB are well made and sound good, and use a proprietary alloy wire. Based upon the desription of the performance the GB cables produce, as documented in this thread. I hear a "similiar" presentation from my own DIY cables made from the Gold Alloy wire that is available here on Audiogon.

Its easy to make conclusions about other cables but its a disservice to the designer and the folks who review this thread for 'authentic' info. To draw the following conclusion..."Based upon the desription of the performance the GB cables produce, as documented in this thread.

I would suggest you participate in the auction and try one for yourself and do the comparisons then report back. Its the more sensible thing to do than drawing conclusions.

As for how it matches with a SET system, the GG fits an important requirement and that is speed without grain. This cable is quick has great PRAT and combine all this detail galore. An example, I played "the best of Mickey Hart" cut 7 Temple Caves and I could not believe the bass information. Its a real tease to hear not just the bass transient but the air and space as it resonates in the "room". SET's are not known for bass but the information is there and its wonderfull to experience. The Revelation IC is outstanding! I just ordered another pair.
