Recent reviews on Cyberlight IC's

To clarify Downunder's post: The Silversmith Audio line of cables reviewed by Mr. Levi is the Palladium line, which at are a different price point than the Cyberlights. Mr. Levi learned of the Palladium after an Audio Circle sponsored listening session hosted by his fellow Positive Feedback reviewer, Fown Ming Tien. The Silversmith Audio Silver interconnect cables (similar price point as the Cyberlights) and the Cyberlights were among the cables being evaluated. Mr. Jim Wang (a gentleman in the industry) and I were both in attendance and the feedback from the Audio Circle members can be viewed at http://www.audiocircle.com/circles/viewtopic.php?t=17586. I believe that Positive Feedback will be posting two additional reviews in the near future, one on the Silver cables and the other a follow-up on Mr. Levi's Palladium review, from reviewers that also have extensive experience with Cyberlights. Finally, Mr. Wang's Cyberlight cables are an intriguing technological endeavor and I applaud his efforts.
Happy Listening,

Since when does Stereophile measure cables? I found it odd to see JA's measurements in the cable review.

Dlwask: you should read JA's explanation carefuly.
The Cyberlights and some other cables (SEEC, for example) employ active circuitry in the signal path. This circuitry should be regarded just like a preamp or an amp in regard to distortion characteristics.
This fact by itself does not mean more than what it is: a set of measurements. Objectivists will interpret them as the whole truth and subjectivists will dismiss them altogether... Just like published measuremets for amps...
