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.

I'm going to have a Revelation vs Revelation shoot-out at the OK Corral. I'm currently using balanced Virtual Dynamics (version 1) ICs and Steve has just sent out a pair of balanced Gabriel Revelation ICs. I have tried the GGs and liked them. We'll see what happens!

Sounds like an intersting shoot-out.
Two great cables(big pice difference though)
Once the cables break-in and you do your comparison I will be very interested in your opinion.

La45, not yet Steve should be shipping mine today or tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to post something late next week after they settle in for 100 hours or so.

Put in my new Gabriel Revelations last night. Right out of the box, just a hair closed in and bass, while there, was a bit fuzzy. These are just preliminary impressions that don't really mean much at this point, just thought I'd report. I have owned the Gabriel Golds and liked them a lot but I've been using Virtual Dynamics Revelation v1 with great satisfaction for about a year now. All the cables mentioned were balanced. I'll try to get back to this thread after the Gabriels get more time, maybe a week or two.
BTW: I really enjoyed dealing with Steve B.
