High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz

@ddraudt I'm going to try a few tweaks in a couple of weeks to see if I can get a little bit more out of my system. My revel studio 2 have started to open up. The bass drivers are starting to move a little better the high fidelity have settled in nicely as well. They mate pretty good with my resonessence dac. @lak what source do you use. @jazzonthehudson what source are you using.

Anyway everyone enjoy the journey when you find something you like tell us as much as you want. Share your enthusiasm about your equipment, cables and music. This hobby usually pulls you way to deep in one direction or the other. When you finally reach the place you are seeking be happy and share you mountain climbing experience. Experiences on equipment or product I enjoy. Opinions on who should say what and how many times they say it doesn't help the people who are interested in improving the systems they have. But speak your mind anyone. If I want a steak from a resteraunt I want the opinions of the people who actually ate there. If you have ate there tell me how much you liked it I won't stop you. Your system is like a potion you can always change it to see what you can get. Enjoy your music. Trust your own ears.

There are 3 matters on the table.

1. Sound quality. This is not a competition between my cables and HF cables. Magnetic cables perform very well when the configuration is right. You can make your own magnetic cables that may surprise you.

2. Price. The price of some cables is in the stratosphere. If you can afford the price then go for them. But there may be attractive alternatives -- for a small fraction of the cost of high-priced cables.

3. Marketing. IMO, there are suspect things going on in this thread that I and others have observed. I believe I have made my point very clearly.

@sabai what does it matter to you. 1) I blog because I'm blown away by the product. 2) The sound quality is better than I have ever heard and I've heard about 25 other brands and I've heard some of the ultra expensive brands that cost way more than the high fidelity stuff 3) price the really good equipment in this hobby will 90% of the time cost more. 4) The others on this blog could have legitimate concerns or as I suspect sometimes could be working for other companies themselves or have affiliations with those companies. One more thing that I put in my previous post. I have open the doors to where I live to hear them. I'm not doing it for anybody's sake but for those who want to hear them and decide if they like them. You're not going to listen cause your decision has already been made. But to anyone else contact me come listen decide for yourself. I don't sell them. If I moved a pair I've done so to move up to the next level I the chain. Look you can continue to be analytical but my analytics tell me to actually listen before I can analyze. I've watched folks come along in this hobby or other industries and do things to stop things for various reasons. I don't care who is doing what for what reason. If you want to hear the high fidelity stuff it's in my system I welcome you to come listen. I bought a CD player that I couldn't hear about 3 years ago and it was an expensive lesson on why I should try to talk to people who have listened to a product before they buy it. That's exactly why I'm letting people who want to have a session can come listen to my arc3, my revels, my cables and my dac so they can decide if the gear is something they would like. Easy way to settle your dilemma or anyone else reading the thread.1) If you are anywhere near dallas message me come hear for yourself 2) the cable company does demos of this product and hundreds of others call them try whatever you want. 3) Be careful with those who say they are concerned about marketing because the could be actually doing anti-marketing themselves. I don't know if that's what's happening but my eyes are open to all possibilities I'm just saying. Signing off on this issue. Must really be important for those to stay on the same tired argument. Ask yourself why they thinks it's important enough. Audiophiles trust nothing but YOUR OWN ears. Hearing is believing. Notice how a person comments and still haven't said they heard them or planning to try to hear them. There is no way that I let anyone tell me anything that they haven't actually experienced whether it's audio or life. I can't hear you cause you haven't heard what you are have giving everybody else advice on.

Correction. You haven't heard what you are giving everybody else advice on. For those who hear a cable or brand that you like comment as much as you want. Some people will say way that person really likes that piece of equipment and others might question why you like it so much but remember most of those commenting will never hear your system ever at all so if it makes you happy keep doing it. It's your system. It's your money. Its your happiness. I wish people would stop trying to tell others how much or how many times they can say they like something. However, I don't expect that to happen because I can't tell another man what to do or say about what he paid for or how much he should or should not pay. I can't tell he or she what he should or shouldn't like. I've said way too much already. I should no better than to even go there. I'm far away from the music talking to people I will never meet trying to tell everybody what they should or shouldn't say. I should know better
