Any feedback from HMS cable ?

Hello,

I have purchased a 2 meter pair of HMS Grand Finale from Tekunda (Christian). First off I want to say it has been a great pleasure doing business with Tekunda. He has always returned my calls and emails and is very helpful with any questions I throw at him. He is truly a man of his word. I am not one great with audiophile layman style words but I will try my best. The cables, YES the cables. I got them on Friday and was not expecting them until Saturday because it was 2 day for delivery on Saturday. I was surprised to see them one day early. Christian had already burned them in for me on his cooker. I replaced my Nordost SPM's with these way different polished ferrite cables. I put a SACD of OPUS 3's reference recording on my Marantz SA-1 and immediately heard a difference. I know this recording well as I played it many times. It was if I did a major upgrade on a component. Sounds were much more clear, clean highs and a bass that seemed much more natural. I will be honest I have not heard the revered Valhalla's on my system as I would spend what it would cost me for them on my future amps (Tenor OTL's). But that is another story. I am a true believer in these cables. They are absolutely keepers! If anyone has any questions for me on these cables or wants more feedback please feel free to email me.

for all of you that did not read my post on the audio asylum regarding the hms cables i will give you a quick paraphrase.i compared a complete valhalla syatem with a complete hms 'gran finale' system on my gear...tenor 75wi amps..piega p10 speakers..scd-1 fully modded.i have subsequently sold my valhalla gear as i found the hms cables the equal to and in some respects better then the valhalla cables.they are that good,imo,in my system. they still are not cheap,but when compared to the valhalla,maybe they are..because they do perform at a level comparable to cables many times their price.i have not heard all of the top cables..siltech G5,jena 'symphony et al',and others but these are staying in my system until something else beats them badly.

I CURRENTLY OWN THE VALHALLA, JENNA LABS
AND HMS CABLE SYSTEMS.
After many hours of listening & all three wires spending days on my cable cooker (audiohama) my choice is the HMS. I originally owned the Jenna Lab and Valhalla. I found many qualities that I really liked in both cables. The Valhalla with its speed and detail and slam, and the Jenna Lab with mid-range to kill for. Then enters the HMS! It seems to possess all the best qualities of both the Valhalla & Jenna. My search had nothing to do with price since I own all three, all purchased in February and March. It sure is nice to discover the "Best to my Ears" is also the least expensive.

The qualities of the HMS just seem to improve with each day of listening.

I am also using the Ensemble Power Point Power Conditioner.

I am planning to add an Audio Aero CD Player and Virtual Dynamics Power Cords this month. I also am planning to audition the new Tenor Amps we have been hearing so much about.

I can promise you that an investment in the HMS IC's is a wise and prudent choice. It is my answer to the IC search. I have tried many but this is my choice for my system.

I hope this helps, let me hear your responces!

Good Listening,
