Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?

Okay.....I have now read all of your reviews on these cables...and if my cable man John McGrogan2 is looking into these then....my ears are open. I have been searching for a pair of 3m bired wired speaker cables to match my Rowland - Avalon set up for the past two years and nothing has interested me. Some of the prices are just plain insane.....so guys any idea what stev would charge for his cables ? ....and has anybody got his speaker cables ????

Hey Gary,
LOL, this is turning into some kind of a reunion here, running into Art and yourself in the same thread. So I'm your cable guy, huh Gary? I've been told that I resemble that Jim Carrey character at times. :)

Actually Pat (Rx8man) first told me about the Gabriel, and he hasn't even heard them yet. I did e-mail Steve off-line and asked him about pricing for a custom pair of Revelation speaker cables. In his reply, he asked me what kind of terminations and how much I wanted to pay. I thought this was a bit odd, but I replied anyway. He told me he'd consider it and get back to me. Granted, that's not your typical cable company operating procedures, but I can't help but think that maybe these are not typical cables. There certainly is a lot of buzz, though I do admit to some trepidation, as I've never heard 'alloy' cables before. I've heard pure copper, silver and gold, silver clad copper and gold clad silver, but never alloys.

I would recommend you just e-mail Steve, tell him what you are looking for, and see what he says. There doesn't appear to be any set price list anywhere.

Art and Rja, thanks for the break in estimates.

Cheers,
John

John and I go back to the prehistoric days when power cords were still in their infancy, talk about reunions !!

There will be three sets of gold interconnects compared in my system within the next month, the Gabriel Revelations mentioned here and two others, should prove an interesting journey.

Pat, I await to hear about your impressions.

John

jmcgrogan-I believe your pricing question may somewhat be addressed in an ad running in conjuction with the present auction.
