Mapleshade and others


Hello Folks:

Would appreciate any views on comparing the sound of their entire line with the following alternate choices:

Kimber Silver Steak
Harmonic Tech (Pro 11 plus or Magic)
Harmonic Tech (Pro Silway)
Cardas (Neutral or Golden Reference)
Kubala Sosna (anything)

My system will be tube based with the MB 450 by VTL and a tube preamp more than likely by CJ, ARC or Lamm. Speakers are Thiel.

My thanks.

D.H.

Sorry piper, I think thread posts are limited to 300 or 400 lines.

There simply is not enough space to list the details of my experience.

However, I see you covered your experience with an appropriate amount of brevity.

I think you forgot prices and a link though.

just trying to offer and solicit useful info. In retrospect, my use of the phrase, "blow away anything you put against them", was ill advised, regardless of my experience.

If I understand you correctly, you have extensive experience with the entire Mapleshade line of cables in comparison with others that you feel put them to shame but that you believe it is unethical for dealers such as us to discuss the specifics of these experiences on this forum. Fair enough.

FWIW, I've enjoyed the sound of ss c-j, Thiel and Alpha-Core Goertz speaker cables.
