Acoustic Zen Silver Reference IC


I recently acquired an Acoustic Zen Silver Reference balanced interconnect, (Acoustic Zen was formed by cable designer Robert Lee who used to be the designer of Harmonic Tech.)since I always wanted to try out new interconnects anyway.

I initially expected this cables to be just another cable since I have Nordost Quattro Fil as a reference on my all solid state system (EMC1,Krell KRC3 and FPB200,Thiel CS3.6). Much to my surprise without even breaking it in as I placed it on my system the sound just change to the best sound I heard coming from my speakers. I was shaking my head as this is really happening without the quattro fil in line. I'm not the best guy to write about audiophile sound but I can tell you that this cable just blew the all other cables I had in my system. This cable simply brought my system to another level. Resolution and transparancy increased three fold allowing details to emanate from the music naturally w/o being analytic, or "in your face". Anybody looking for a new cable, this one really is worth an audition.

Glide3, your system probably just sounds like the real thing. I mean each and every component (I consider cables as components)in your system in my opinion is one of the best their category.I'm pretty sure it's always goosebumps time everytime you listen to it.
They are currently still working on their website if I'm not mistaken. I got in touch with them initially by emailing them directly

hopefully this will help.

Sorry about the error on prior post, sticky fingers. Anyway, I agree with Megasam about the cables looking similar to HT ICs, part of the reason most likely is they share same designer. But their similarities stop there. I can say without hesitation that the HT cables is not in the same league as the Acoustic Zen cables. I will put the Acoustic Zen cables against cables 3 times its price any day.
