High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz


In December 2011,I wrote that High Fidelity cables led by cable designer Rick Schultz was putting together a new cable.The cable came to market as CT-1.The CT-1 has FINALLY made it into my system!I had obtained a version of the prototype that Rick had been working on.It blew my previous reference Genesis by Virtual Dynamics.I thought I had finally found my end with this cable.This prototype delivered to my ears "Nirvana".Could I be at the end of my quest for the ultimate sound?
No. I received two pairs of CT-1 to replace my prototypes.They went into the system this past Friday.Unable to dedicate time until Sunday listening,I stole a few moments,ducking away from company with anticipation.My guest could tell even with the music set for"ambiance"something was intriguing and I was in for a treat!
The experience:
First off,CT-1 was very user friendly.Installation was simple;the cable is very nice and light.The female RCA fit beautifully unlike any I had found in other cable.It was secure and reliable.It seemed much thought was dedicated to developing a designer fit to an aesthetically stunning RCA connector.Install entailed a few wiggles to ensure what seemed like a compression fit on my RCA.
It was 2-3 hrs. for the 1st step of break in to be complete.At that point I had something different!Today,although they only have 10-12 hrs. on them,I can`t put into words how much my system has transformed.Believe me,I loved my prototypes.However....there is simply no comparision.
The clarity and sound is so natural.
The soundstage is like nothing I ever heard.Resoulution is breathtaking and inner detail is simply hard to believe possible.
The sound has transended and now it simply does not seem as thought I have speakers.
My system is musicians playing music.
I am told with time they will improve and I trust that as it was revealed with the prototypes.I wanted to share my thoughts with you that now.
Unequivocally,a testament to High Fidelity,as the name declares.
High Fidelity Cables for me,the last word on it,after 12 hours!
Truly Amazing

@everyone. I just purchased the resonessence invicta dac. I tried them with high fidelity. This is is a great sounding dac. Best I have heard so far.
No pun intended, I like all of you here, however, Badman's last post read very valid to me, I understand the Hf cable may sound great to some, I do not believe Badman is really talking about the sound of the cable here, just the specification claims, there appears to be truth into what he is really talking about, neither less, enjoy your cables everyone, that, in the end is what it is about.
@everyone. I just purchased the resonessence invicta dac. I tried them with high fidelity. This is is a great sounding dac. Best I have heard so far. Better sound staging depth and width. Smooth and no loss of detail. Using the high fidelity power cord on it.
@audiolabyrinth. Hey I'm no mathematician but maybe we can get us one so I can understand what in the world he is talking about with them numbers. You know I can't count too good. Lol. Hey the thread is about the music. The sound. Not the numbers. Right or wrong about numbers who cares. I don't think any of us who have high fidelity care about the numbers we got them based on sound not numbers. We are not going to say wowww the numbers are off .0000000001%. We got to get rid of them cables. You either like the sound or you don't. Period. One more thing what if the numbers are right? I look at numbers at the store. We listen to cables for the sound. Cool I understand. Well when the cables sound good lets look at the numbers so we don't use our ears to listen. Happy counting oh sorry my bad "Happy Listening". Now Keith now don't you go getting all hyped up on me. You know we are good with each other Mr. Tara Labs. Know remember we are good with each other. I'm listening to lightnin Hopkins right now. My friend robert spence played it on the resonessence invicta dac through high fidelity cables and it sounded great.
