How's it going Gthirteen? Thanks for your opinions. I have been a pretty big fan of the old AQ line, as you know from our dealings. Glad to know you are enjoying the Diamond. As you know, we are both big proponents of silver. I cut my teeth with silver on AudioQuest Lapis and Kimber KCAG. Yes, The Cable Company is very good. I am quite familiar with them, as they are a local company(Philadelphia area). Dealt with them a great deal a LONG time ago(10 years). Good guys there. Bob Stein(???pardon me for my lack of total recall on his name), the owner has done as much to bring wire to the forefront of this industry as anyone. He does a yeoman's job of educating people by letting them see(actually hear) things for themselves. Good Luck and Happy Thanksgiving!
New AudioQuest line
I am wondering about the new AudioQuest interconnects and speaker cable products. So far, I have only heard 2 or 3 of the new cables. They seem to be a good bit stiffer, and now feature updated cosmetics(guess someone out there worries about that stuff). While I thought they were pretty good, I wonder about how much of a step up from their old line they are. It seems the prices have taken quite a step up(surprise???). The CV-4, which they are really pushing hard(and says trumps a cable of their older line, which was 3X more expensive - Crystal or Midnight???), didn't sound as good to me as I recall Midnight. But it's been a few years since my last go around with Midnight... Does anyone have experience with the new line? If so, what do you think of these products? Are they very much better? Thanks for your opinions.
