Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit

Has anyone tried this "minimalist" cable kit? After receiving a recommendation from someone with similar musical values to myself, and whose ears I trust, I could not resist ordering one. I will report on how they sound in a few weeks, but am interested in others' opinions too.

For those that have not heard about them look at www.sakurasystems.com for an interesting read. The cable sounds as if it is very close to the specification of the conductors in Belden Cat5. So I may have spent around 100 times what the kit is worth. We shall see.

If you have not heard this cable, please don't bother posting your opinions of how it MUST sound here. Nor am I that interested in hearing how stupid I must be to order this kit - it's my money and you are free to make different decisions with yours. Sorry for this condition, but I am bored with those that have nothing positive to offer on this site, and post their opinions based on deductive logic rather than actual experience.

Red, Brulee,...- I just couldn't pass up trying the OTA kit considering the descriptions and the cost. My kit should arrive mid-week. After a respectable burnin period, I'll let you know what I hear in my system. Actually, I had my first taste, though quite limited, of the interconnect at Brulee's and was favorably impressed. I'll see how it holds up in a long run (27ft) and over a longer period of time.
(BTW,what are you talking about Brulee? You're getting to the point where you need your glasses to see the "big ugly hoses"! Just kidding.)
Thanks to all for bringing Sakura to my attention.
Enjoy!
