Sablon Audio Cables


I am quite surprised that there has not been any talk on Audiogon on the Sablon range of cables. There seems to be a hell of alot press on them and testimonials on their site. But outside on forums they are spoken little of.

Can anyone share their experience with them.

I own some...stunning value for money. I also own TA Ref XL MM2, so i am blessed to have some nice cables too. I know Mark Coles (no affiliation) and respect his passion. His focus is on black backgrounds, startling detail and maintaining as tonally pure a sound as he can. He likes tubes on a personal basis, but is in the pursuit of detail and extension. Comparing to my 10-yr old Transparent Ref Cables, i think his are better by a wide margin...at a fraction of the cost. He definitely gets up there when compared with some far more expensive cables...and i dont think you will find any sacrifice. it is his direct sales model that allows him this pricing advantage...which translates to the buyer. I know people do shoot-outs with his stuff vs the new TA Reference cables, Valhalla, Jorma Prime...that is seriously expensive stuff. I think most of the feedback is that his cables can just about hang in there...that is an incredible feat given his pricing.
Thanks lloyd for your feedback. Which Sablon cables do you own?

I have read all the feedback from the Sablon site. But I haven't read many on forums. I am a bit weary on feedback on manufacturers sites. One really does not know whether they are real or made up.

Still find it strange for a cable that has been reviewed so extensively to have so little feedback on them on forums.
Btw I have got the Sablon rubusto cables and find them to be excellent value for money. Great build quality and sound. Would like feedback on their Pantela interconnect and how they compare to cables such as Jorma etc......

I know on their website the feedback has them beating everything out there, but would like to hear from people on Audiogon.
There has been some discussion on this site, of Mark's cables. The origonal cable was the Robusto and that is the sweetspot in the range for me. I have several pairs,as I do of the equally well spoken of, Lessloss origonals. I love them both, though they are different, tubes to SS if you like, the Robusto being a bit richer.
I have tried the Uber Robusto, made on the way of developing the Gran Corona and did'nt hear a great difference, to be honest. Mark lent me an RCA pair of the Panatella's. They were very good for the price, but I preferred, my Virtual Dynamic Master cables and Silver Arrow Big Daddy cables. The latter are some Palladium cables made by a one man outfit in the UK
