Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?


Hi-
Any one else out there using these Gabriel Gold IC's?
I need to know if it is me or if anyone else finds them as good as me.
I bought a pair on auction a while back and compared them to my Stealth cables.
After about a week of going back and forth I found the Gabriel Golds to have bettered my Stealths and bought more.
Is it me?
Just wondering what some other folks who bought them think of them.
Thanks for the input.

Hi Sabai-
I think I answered your question thru my website.

On one end of your cables the heatshrink says "Gabriel Gold" the other end says "Reflection"

I believe you noticed this after this posting.

How do you like them so far?
Sabai-looking forward to take of the combination of GG and Synergistic items

Sabai-
It sounds interesting and confusing all at once,however the bottom line is you have found your own personal sonic utopia.
Curious have you ever had an issue in your area with EMI/RF?

Not knowing the make-up of the enhancers it almost sounds as if they are acting like a passive RF/EMI drain in your set-up.

I'm sure there make-up and design has had hours of testing and their must be something special going on with them even if it can't be explained technically

Once again if you're happy - I'm happy
Sabai- Thanks for the great feedback on the GG Reflections.
I think the folks ar Synergistic deserve some praise also. I have a great deal of respect for their products and dedication.

Thanks for the kind words on the GG's .
I also agree on your thoughts on the BMI AC Cords.
Great power cord and certainly something to inspire me to create.

Are you still active on Agon?

It seems like a lot of the gremlins are out of the system.

Directional flow of cables used and new
End labeled Gabriel Gold = From
End labeled Revelation, Rapture, Rapture R.
Reflection, etc = to.
Cable cooker/cable burn in device should not be used with NEW models Rapture v3, Reflection v2, Infusion and HALO.

Dragon1952-Thanks for the comment.
Gabriel Gold has thrived for over 12 years without any press at all primarily due to "word of mouth" , repeat customers along with Audiogon postings.

why no formal reviews?

"I’ve had a number of trade publications request review samples over the years, I have graciously declined. as my focus has been and always will be the ultimate reviewer - - You The Customer ! With hundreds of discussions and great testimonials/feedback I feel confident I’m on the right path."

Hello - Sutts
The original Reflection use to be the top of the line offering from GG.
The NEW Reflection v2 is now the entry level cable from GG.
I considered dropping the Reflection name and calling it something else, however, I am fond of the name and the cables aesthetics. The projected retail/direct cost of the v2 is LOWER primarily because less Gold is used in the design.However, with the addition of the NEW connector,conductor material and re-worked internal geometry I prefer the sonic character of the v2 over the original.IMHO the V2 is a more organic sounding cable.BTW if you are still using the original Reflection as so many others are,then you are still listening to a great interconnect.I am truly sorry the promotional auctions are having such a negative effect on you.As you may be aware I'm not one for big ad campaigns or reviews.
The money I'm losing on the promotional auctions for the RCA version of the V2 is creating interest from both new and established clients and I am getting great feedback on the NEW v2
The website is in the process of being revamped and will offer info on the GG Essential Line which consist of the Reflection v2 and the soon to be released Impression along with the Premier Line which consist of the Infusion and the HALO products.
If curious an in depth customer review is available on this site along with other sites for the Gabriel Gold Infusion interconnect. An additional customer review of the Reflection v2 by another member is said to be in the works.I still strongly believe the best reviewers are the folks who listen for themselves and trust their own ears.Thank you Audiogon for allowing me to share this info and my thoughts.

Kedoades- I understand EBM's passion for Stealth.
I was big Indra fan before I started designing cables.

Gabriel Gold designer is not retired - New designs are in the mix for the near future.
