Are these cables bright or lean? Some earlier versions of Grover Huffman's cables seemed to have that reputation. Also, when I read the oft-repeated statement "if the recording is lousy, your system will sound lousy too", I get nervous. There are limits to fidelity, and I don't want to endure a headache because the recording engineer was incompetent. Finally, how do his cables compare with some of the really well-regarded cables that have a following here on Audiogon, like Gabriel Gold, KCI, and Synergistic Research?
