Anti-Cabls Ic's alternatives?


I have Anti-cable speaker wire in my system and really like the way it sounds. I'm thinking of also buying the anti-cable ic's to upgrade my Kimber PBJ ( these ic's sound very glaring to me, especially in the vocals).

My only concern is someone mentioned that anti-cable Ic's are unshielded and this can cause problems. Should this be something to worry aboout? I'm not too familiar with the argument of shielded vs non shielded so bare with me.

If someone has a better recommendation based on my sysytem then feel free at your suggestion and how it bested the Anti-Cable

Try PNF Audio. Best cables I've ever used, period. They work incredibly well with PNF's own Symphony speaker cables, but I'd imagine they'll do well with the Anti-Cables, too (although I've never tried the combination personally).

Dave, I've used both the Precision A and ICON ic's and both are fantastic performers at the price. The ICON's are definitely worth the difference in price, but the Precision A is really close. I don't want to sound too much like a commercial, but I just can't help it! I've been jumping up & down about PNF ever since I first tried them because they literally trounced everything else I've tried (including my own stuff; and keep in mind that I have a technical background and have even built some designs that are very much like the Anti-Cable ic's...). I have zero affiliation with the company, although I've gotten to know Steve Jain there a bit just through conversation about his product. All I can say is, give 'em a try!

Apologies for taking this thread away from the original questions about the Anti-Cables....
