I will say that the Anticables Silver/gold speaker cables are superb. I'm keeping mine and I've had some very nice cables - MIT Magnum MA, Audience Au24E and Synergistic Tungsten. And I will be trying out the Anticables ICs soon. No scam here, I can affirm. I feel it must be your preferences and perhaps your set up. Paul does have a 30-day return policy. If you bought them from him you should be able to return them. If not, as someone else noted you might have been scammed by your seller.
Anticables
Does anyone have any experience with Anticables products? I spent over $600 on a pair of honestly cheap-looking ICs from them and after 400 or so hours burning them in I'm hard-pressed to tell the difference between them and an old set of no name ICs built from pro cable stock and heavy metal RCA connectors.
For all I know they are made out of regular bulk copper spools in a plastic sheath and wrapped in a Slinky.
