Kubala-Sosna Cables..... I don't get it ?????

Why aren't these cables more widely used by us audiophiles....??? I've been auditioning these interconnects sent to me from a dealer and these are good.....My other cables on the short list to listen to are the Synergistic Absolute Reference X2's, Purist Audio Dominus....they are sweet, coherent, detailed and not popular.....I don't get it !!! Am I missing something ????? Are they just the flavor of the month cable ????

they are a limited bandwidth rolled off colored sounding cable. not at all tranparent to the source. some people might like how it sounds in their systems , but neutral they are not.

I work at a dealer that sells the KS Emotion cables, and compared to all other brands we sell, they are rolled off on the top, and not as open sounding, they lack low level detail compared to the others. they tend to round off and warm up the sound of the systems they are hooked to. in a brighter or thinner sounding system they can balance things out a bit, but they still sound colored to my ear. We cary ARC , wilson , Arye, Wadia, Belcanto , Atmasphere, Magnapan, Sonus Fabre, Vandersteen, just to name a few brands, so I have heard the KS with lots of different gear. If YOU like how they sound, then they are good cables, for you in your system.
