I can’t wait to get my hands on one of those $130 cables and do some performance mods. Better caps. Beefier power supply, etc. The end would be the size of a toaster oven and couldn’t plug into anything, but imagine the possibilities.
Interesting video on cables
At the risk of opening up this can of worms again, my brother sent me this video. It’s incredibly interesting and goes some way to showing why cables matter and that all cables are not equal. These are USB cables but I’m sure the principle applies to speaker and IC cabling.
