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

Accusing Ddraudt of being a shill or plant shows a lack of integrity of those making the claims. For sure he is over the top and wildly enthusiastic, but I have seen dozens of genuine customers over the years who do this about various product lines, its not out of the ordinary.

But of course what they are really saying - is they do not believe the performance claims of HFC cables, and thus Ddraudt's comments must surely be disingenuous.

Bollocks. Either put up or shut up, either try the cables yourself or don't try them. But stop attacking the integrity of people here when you have no idea of the facts. Yes attack their opinion if you disagree, a forum is about debate, but going after the man is a fairly low tactic.
Agisthos, Thank you and you are correct. Lack of integrity and childish behavior are trademarks of Thread Trolls and if you feed them by responding they get uglier. as is show by this case in point. Haha!
There are monikers I've seen before that I know not to read. I recommend this to all. (Would you like a list?) Same clown, different day.
For me to be offended would be silly. Like being offended by a barking dog or a rainy day.
It's pretty easy for me to skip to meaningful posts. I recommend this to all.
news flash... this post has nothing to do with the wonder of High Fidelity Cables either. It's just a cautionary road sign to warn of critters crossing.
My hope is that all who can enjoy music, will do so and write about their joy on appropriate threads. I recommend this to all. Love Dave
Mapman, why does it matter to you if someone has paid full price? Most cars have a price listed on the invoice but few pay that price. Does it make their opinion on the car worthless?

Perhaps you are resentful because you cannot get a discount?

I don't value most people's opinions regardless of whether they pay full-hit or not.
I'd just like to know what people gushing actually paid, if not the list price. Its a fair question. Nobody is answering it though.
