Wig, how do you feel about the Morrow MA1 compared to the Dynamic Design cable you had?
If you like the sound of the Morrow cable then you might want to try the Vintage Audio Lab silver litz cable as well. More top end sparkle without glare or edge and a little more open without thinning or drying out the mids. Both MA1 and Vintage Audio are good buys. The Morrow's are slightly warmer but not as transparent. I really felt the JPS SC3 was the clear winner for me but some may find them a little forward. The Vintage Audio cable replaced the MA6 and I am hoping Gabriel Gold will put all IC's I have used to shame.
The Morrow MA6 and JPS SC3 IC's are far behind the Gabriel Gold Reflection ic's. I would be seriously looking into KCI silkworms, Jade Audio Hybrids or the Gabriel Gold Reflection cable if anyone is considering spending a decent amount on IC's. Silver plated solid core copper can only do so much. They have clarity but at the same time have a midrange energy that masks other frequencies. The highs are nowhere near the extnesion and refinement of the Gabriel Cable and the mids of the Garbriel Reflection are in the likes of a 300b tube which are lush, clear and silky. I would not put the Morrow midrange in this category.
I got caught up in the trade up program and really should have stayed with the MA3 or MA4. I think it would be best to try some of these other cables as well instead of just jumping up to the top of the Morrow ladder. As far as speaker cables go the Clear Day double shotguns are an extremely better value than the top of the line Morrow's.
