High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz

In December 2011,I wrote that High Fidelity cables led by cable designer Rick Schultz was putting together a new cable.The cable came to market as CT-1.The CT-1 has FINALLY made it into my system!I had obtained a version of the prototype that Rick had been working on.It blew my previous reference Genesis by Virtual Dynamics.I thought I had finally found my end with this cable.This prototype delivered to my ears "Nirvana".Could I be at the end of my quest for the ultimate sound?
No. I received two pairs of CT-1 to replace my prototypes.They went into the system this past Friday.Unable to dedicate time until Sunday listening,I stole a few moments,ducking away from company with anticipation.My guest could tell even with the music set for"ambiance"something was intriguing and I was in for a treat!
The experience:
First off,CT-1 was very user friendly.Installation was simple;the cable is very nice and light.The female RCA fit beautifully unlike any I had found in other cable.It was secure and reliable.It seemed much thought was dedicated to developing a designer fit to an aesthetically stunning RCA connector.Install entailed a few wiggles to ensure what seemed like a compression fit on my RCA.
It was 2-3 hrs. for the 1st step of break in to be complete.At that point I had something different!Today,although they only have 10-12 hrs. on them,I can`t put into words how much my system has transformed.Believe me,I loved my prototypes.However....there is simply no comparision.
The clarity and sound is so natural.
The soundstage is like nothing I ever heard.Resoulution is breathtaking and inner detail is simply hard to believe possible.
The sound has transended and now it simply does not seem as thought I have speakers.
My system is musicians playing music.
I am told with time they will improve and I trust that as it was revealed with the prototypes.I wanted to share my thoughts with you that now.
Unequivocally,a testament to High Fidelity,as the name declares.
High Fidelity Cables for me,the last word on it,after 12 hours!
Truly Amazing

This was brought to our attention and although we typically do not post or comment on forums I thought we can shed some light that will help you and others not only now but in the future.  
The "best place" to pose a question like this about product issue's is direct to the manufacture itself, part of the support the offer is product service where daily people can and do ask questions about products that are answered by the people who make the product.
The contact information including e-mail and phone number is typically on the website's contact page.
In this case the service dept. will lead you to a video that covers this topic and can also arrange to have the cable brought back in for a free check and fix any issue if you do not find a quick "do it yourself" fix.
I would like to clarify that we like most manufactures do not use social media or forums as a way to communicate to sales or service personnel.
In fact typically we do not watch them at all and would generally never be able to know you even had a issue. We love to help and hear from people so we're truly sad if they do not contact us.
We do not typically look at forum posts or even know they exist, that is for the public so we also do not reply to comments here if we start it may become an expectation as we have seen a little on Facebook. So if you or "anyone else" has a comment or question regarding this comment or anything HFC related to service or sales please contact us directly. Happy listening!
