Is anyone familiar with Ixos cables?

The IXOS silver series averaged a 4 out of 5 stars by What Hi Fi and Hi Fi Choice (2 British magazines). I have been using them in an ADCOM AMP/PREAMP/TUNER (circa 1990); AR302 (circa 1995); and a SONY ES CD PLAYER (circa 1998) set-up and am very happy with their overall smoothness and clarity.

Artemus. You have to try what works in your own system. Some cables do work their best in a family setup. What I'm saying is the acoustic zen and ixos ixotica work very well together in my system. Now this mix may not work in yours. I believe you can mix cables if you like the result...to each his own....cables are such an unknown,really. When you find happiness stop there....it may be all one brand...if so, great.....if not..don't worry about it as long as you can kick back and enjoy the music....cheers, Bluenose... Consensus can be a good thing as long as we remain open to variables.....it adds to the fun

Bluenose I tried the 1001 and a model above them cant remember the name.

I demo'ed Ixos Gamma 6002 Bi-wire Cable with my all-Linn system and it really brought things to life. I ended up getting Linn K400 but I am still curious as to whether the Ixos may have sounded better - never had them both at the same time. It was the Ixos that first convinced me that wire can actually make an audible difference.

Yes I am familiar with these cables, the exotica (their top of the line). Overall I liked the Harmonic Tech in my system better though the Ixos had their virtues, they didn't reveal the inner harmonic detail of the music in the same manner as the HT. I think their lower priced cables were quite good for the money. I really like their ceramic encased connectors, nice touch.
