I have tried the Micro and Piccolo in my system. I normally use the Oritek X-2 or CRL Silver ICs from my DAC to preamp. I tried both the Micro and Piccolo and can say that both are very good cables. They are very neutral and let through a lot of detail. I also like the fact that they are well shielded and very flexible cables. Overall I preferred the Micro and have been using this exclusively for the last 2 months or so. I did try the Micro and Piccolo in my system together. I placed the Piccolo between my preamp and amp. While the sound was great, I felt the combo was a little too much of a good thing together. I preferred the RSAD Poemia!!! or CRL Silver between the preamp and amp instead.
