DH Labs Silver Sonic


I'm looking for comments on DH Labs Silver Sonic ICs. How do they stack up to more expensive ICs like Ridge Street, Purist Audio, Kimber, Cardas?

I have used the DH Labs Air Matrix interconnects for quite a while now and they have always worked very well. Whenever I have compared to other cables they hold their own and thus far I have preferred the sound of the DH Labs, especially for the price.
I have my entire system wired with DH Labs BL-1 and D-75 interconnects and couldn't be happier.
The T-14 speaker cables are excellent also but there are more to choose from here too, namely Audioquest type 4 and Canare 4S11 starquad.
Don't buy into the hyper-priced cables... I won't say any more on that.
If you want to save even more money, buy it in bulk (Audio Concepts inc (ACI) and Blue Jeans Cables (BJC) have it), then get your favorite connector (I think the connector can have VERY significant influence). In fact I believe what many people "hear" is the quality of the connection as much as the cable so choose this carefully but, again, don't go crazy!!!
I've also been very happy with the DH Labs Air Matrix interconnects between my DAC and preamp and between the preamp and amp.

The point of diminishing returns is different for everyone but all The DH Labs cables I've used, BL-1, D-110 and Air Matrix interconnects and T-14 and Q-10 speaker cables, have felt like real bargains at their price.
I used to use the Air Matrix interconnects and then the Revelations. The Revelations are better cables in that they sounded a bit more refined to me than the Air Matrix.

As for comparisons, I auditioned the Purist Audio Musaeus and Elementa Advance interconnects as I was looking to upgrade from the Revelations. I ended up staying with the Revelations... I found the low end Purist offerings to sound thick and plodding, with more robust bass but less detail up top. The Revelations are silver cables, so they definitely have more speed and shimmer up top, but they aren't the end-all in bass response. However, though they keep it to a minimum, they still sounded "silvery" to me (not harsh, but very detailed and tipped up towards treble).

If I were in your shoes, I would look into trying the KCI Mandarina. Excellent treble and bass response without sounding thin. And, of course, you get that wonderful tonality in the midrange that only gold can provide...
