Danlib1 is right. There is no need to spend 1500 for a interconnect. Also there are many here on Audiogon used that are in new or almost new condition. I just bought a pair of Cryo Parts Sappire I/C for 220.00, 6 ft. used in mint condition, i replaced a pair of Harmonic Tech Truth Links, which are very nice sounding, the Ht cost a little more but both sound great. No need to spend 1500. Also how long of i?c do you need?I was using the HT with Odyssey SS amps and Merlin speakers, very smooth not harsh at all. Go to Cryo Parts web and check them out very good price smooth and detailed sound, or if your interested i could sell you the HT Truth Links,1 meter, mint condition.
