@agisthos Thanks for the kind words, those types of comments make my day. I’ve of course been an audiophile much longer than being a dealer (I just started dealing just over two years ago), and when I became a dealer, I swore I would only take on brands that truly move me and that I am passionate about. I’ve since found that there are a handful of audio products that are exceptional, but it doesn’t mean that everything that brand / manufacturer makes is of the same caliber, and so I don’t necessarily want to be a dealer for that product. And then there are some brands that make excellent products, and it just doesn’t make sense for me to be a dealer for them, perhaps because they are too similar to what I already carry, too great of a financial investment without a large enough market for me to be successful, or because they already have a dealer in my territory. But it doesn’t stop me from talking about those brands or products because they deserve to be mentioned!
I havent heard the Intona Ultimate, though I concur that impedance matching is incredibly important. It looks like a 1.5M is close to $4K? A new USB cable is not on my priority list, but I’ll definitely keep my eyes open for opportunities to evaluate it!
