VD Revelation Speaker cables -


I read reviews of these cables and usually there are good comments about the cables bass response and dynamics. But no mention of the upper frequency abilities. This makes me wonder...

From Stereo Times Review in December 2005.
"The Revelation sounds surprisingly real and un-electrical. It takes the “system” sound away from your electronics and gives them an almost a human touch. Some might judge this as rolled-off in the highs, or too warm in the midrange. I say it’s neither."

So, I dont know, perhaps I am thinking too much between the lines of this review. Is there rolled off highs in this cable that is detectable to us common folk?.

I have seen other comments on different cables stating about there high frequency characteristics as, "its a natural sound" Do they really mean it does not have extened highs? In my experience, many times that is the case.

Please dont get me wrong I love bass , midrange , dynamics and soundstage qualities but the cable also has to hit the high Frequency extremes.

I would appreciate anyone with experience with these cables would comment on the cables upper frequency abilities.
That is, does it sound like a cymbal crashing with impact and detail and shimmer or does it sound like a muted aluminum pie plate off in the distance?

I was wondering were that last VD thread was?? I did inquire about the Genesis cables. $24,000 for 8 foot biwire. 9K for a 1 meter interconnect. Get This!! you can get a short trial for %15 of the price of cable. Over 3 grand to hear the speaker cable. What a scam ! I thought I was buying a timeshare from a used car salesman after the call
Ozzy - glad to hear you like the cables. These being heavy gauge solid core copper the 800+ hour break in is a good estimate. Besides VD cables, my custom amp and preamp used solid core copper and the break in on those was a good 500 hours. Well worth the time though.
Snook2,40,000 cd front ends,160,000 Wavac amps,170,000 Wilson speakers,45,000 preamps.I suspect that this is true free enterprise and is the American way!Sunny cables are over 100,000 for a set of their cables and there is no in home demo that I know of!And the timeshare also doesn't allow you to take it home!Take care Dennis
Snook, maybe your tire kicking was sniffed out and properly dismissed!

I have received nothing but thoughtful and very forthright service from my many interactions with Virtual Dynamics. (albeit with much lower priced cabling)

Though the pricing is substantial, I can understand the restock/trial expense. Once used, Cabling takes a huge hit in value (but we all know that).
Distortion, I never answered that thread just interested in why I couldn't find it. I am highly interested in getting the cable but that kind of pitch makes one suspect. I was also told that if I acted for purchase in 24 hours I could get a better deal. He never did give a true price. Inquiries were for the Revelation 2.0 and the genesis. Should buying a cable be this difficult?
