Has anyone tried Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 RCA IC?

Well, I own XLR>RCA BJ IC, which was build for me some time ago, but to tell you the true, I found my DH Labs BL 1 better than BJ, cos they are more open/airy, while BJ are more focused/compressed in presentation, at least to my ears, you can easierly hear that side by side, cos I can switched them quite fast. I am not saying that BJ are bad, even I paid GBP30 instead of USD 30, cos I am in EU and they ship from UK as well, but its system depending, but also your preferences. I do agree about their warmth, but I don't really like their suffer of airiness, even for the price, you have to choose what you like and that's matter. Soon, I am going to get, maybe during January, some pro studio cable from AU, pure Australian cooper at high level, from my friends friend, who is running hi fi shop and using this one all over the place. They will cost more than BJ and DH Labs all together, but I am just very curious how would they do against those I already own. Another example of an budget IC are Van Den Hul D102III Hybrid XLR, which are better than DH Labs, however I never tried their RCA version, so, my plan to go back to 100% cooper based one caused by D102III. I want the cable to be in best possible balance you can have, means warmth and airiness all together, detail and silky top end without bothering or getting to analytical. Is it possible? Don't know, but I am going to try. Last thing I would like to say is the most cable market, like anything else, are pure business, but only few know their product and I already own them, hopefully my next step will not make me think differently.

agree = try some real basic DIY first, learn what they sound like in your system and then judge what a more expensive cable can do for you. If DIY is too hard for you to do, then get some BJ, and educate your ears.

I wonder how offerings from Neotech sound like compared to all the IC's that have been discussed here including Blue Jeans cables.
I'm in process of buying an RCA IC and a coax totaling under $150-200 and wondering what if DIY Neotech sounds better than Blue Jeans Cables.

I eventually concluded that Blue Jeans were not in the league of Cardas, Discovery, Empirical Audio, etc, in terms of transparency and refinement. In the Blue Jeans price range I have a slight preference for Monster Cable (which seems to be a politically incorrect thing to say on Audiogon, alas....).

Nothing wrong with the BJ cables though.

Never heard of Neotech.

I use all BJC / LC-1 with the exception of the cable to the sub and the Mogami Balanced from the CD player.

Some magnet wire DIY may happen over Christmas when I'm between classes.
