EBM,
What smoke are you using today? |
The asking price of both the GG Rapture and Jade Hybrid is what makes them the top cables IMO. Both are worth every penny.
Bobf,
Have you heard the Jade/H?
What would be your top 3? |
Ebm,
You wrote" Not really Dudes!!"
We know you were joking and so was I but please explain your joke as it is over my head. |
Now I understand the joke. Thanks |
I just think it's about time the unknown gunslinger be know to the high paying cable buyers.
I do not work for GG and I don't get any of my cables for free as I have to buy with real $$$ all my GG wire. I am just a very happy camper with this wire and am greatful for this thread. If it were not for members like Bobf I would be lost at sea with my ex cables. |
Bobf,
Does the Rapture have a better mid-range magic to it than the Rev. |
Donpark1439,
Installing three GG R's into my system has given me some added detail of the recordings on my LP'S. You can hear the soft background music of a pianio or cymbal with clarity.
I feel like I can now hear 100% of the recording without it being "oppressive".
Toneality it is as good as my AN Sogon and Kondo KSL LP but does not clump all the player together.
It's like finding a wife that can cook, make money, clean, is a 10 in looks and loves s.x.
|
In my system the Rapture smoked the Rev. MK2.
Buy them as fast as you can. |
TVAD,
Try some Rapture cables and forget about the other upgrade/new version cables by GG.
If you want I may send you a pair to try out. |
John,
Very well written testimony concerning the R/H cables.
I heard everything you did and I am in full agreement of your assessment of the two cables.
I just wish I could write like you. I am more of a puplic speaker than a writer.
I think you and Tvad are two of the better contributors of audio info on the 'Gon.
|
Bobf,
Have you heard the Jade Hybrid? |
Ant,
Trade up for the Rapture. =8^) |
Jmcgrogan2,
I would love to hear the Dream.
I would have sent you my Isoclean Supreme Focus for a Dream or two.
Any Dreams out there? |
Jmcgrogan2,
What did you think of the VD Rev. 2.0?
Have you heard their IC's? |
My error in the spelling of Tara.
The chap he bought the wire from is to contact me and I will have him send me a 1M to demo.
I went into the Jade Hybrid listening session with a hungrey and open heart when I A/B it to the Rapture. The Jade is every bit its equal but with a different flavor.
Jmcgrogan2,
I moved my amp closer to my speakers so I can use a 2M/2.5M biwire. I would love to hear you opinion on speaker cables.
Rich from VD wants to send me a Gen. 1.1 to try out so..... |
Buy a Sistrum SP-101 ($400.00) or a Sistrum SP-1 ($250.00) and place it next to the amp. The Sistrum stand will beat the living snot out of the stand you have your CDP on.
It looks like you have power on the back wall by the amp. Make sure it is a deadicated line. A 1M will now work for a lot less $$$ than buying a 5M wire. |
Norm,
The SP-101 is superior to the SP-1, so says Robert at SS. I have found this to be true in my system. It is as good as the HRS M3. I have 4-101's & 2-1's.
JC,
Do I hear an amen?
Bobf,
I canned the Zero thing. Unless the gent is willing to send me his $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ (14) GMAB Zero then I am at his mercy.
I did send the Rapture to a friend to hear and he is running JPS Labs Alluminata. I will get to hear his wire in my system. I will report back and forward his E-mail reaponse for all to read. |
I will be sending my Rapture IC to a 'Gon member that has system wired with the Tera Labs Zero.
He will report back to me his findings when he has A/B the two cables. |
I truly believe this 'Gon member is an upright person. He had plenty of apportunities to slander and tear down a certain manufacturer but didn't. Having talked to him on the phone I believe he will tell the truth concerning the two cables.
Bobf,
Good laugh on the Beemer.
I have a 3M biwire set of speaker cables that retail for $48,000.00. Most of the time they sound as if they are worth every penny.
Please send me your best SC's to demo so I can sell the cables and buy a new BMW/cables. |
Jc,
Where there's a will there's a way.
Get rid of the 5M. It's killing you. |
JC,
Go to the pics on my system and see the two SP-101's stacked together. This may work for you to get your gear closer together.
The 5M SC is killing you and the sound of your system. Run all Rev. MK2 wire and be happy for the rest of your life. |
|
I disagree.
Forget the MK2 and go Rapture all the way.
Why monkey around with the MK2 when, in a few days, you will write in about wanting to switch to all Raptures.
Rapture is a Koine Greek word meaning "cought up" and "taken away".
So you see if you want to be cought up and taken away by the music you must get all Raptures LOL. =8^)
|
Jc,
Any news on the Rapture wire??
I know, you have been cought up and taken away.... |
Joe,
When I first installed the GG Rev./Rapture in my systeam I was mad as .... because the wire I was using was a $3000.00 retail price ( Audio Note/Kondo ) cable that was not even in the same ball park as the Rapture. |
Joe,
What say you on the Rapture? |
|
JC,
Great write up.
Sounds as if you have been cought up like the rest of us Rapture owners. |
Art,
You are running a high fever on the vinyl thing.
It will break in time and when it does then you will realize that analog is like an addictive drug that you must have.
Kind of like wondering away from home a bit. As Dorothy said, "there's no place like home". =8^) |
Bud,
On second thought that fever you have is long lasting so you can send the LP's down my way. I will pay for shipping.
|
What material is used in the Reflection AC cable? |
How is the Infusion AC cable different than the Reflection? |
