Well if it sounds good and people are willing to pay then more power to you. As far as high fidelity and everybody else is concerned charge what you want. If you sound good people will pay it! I don't know what you invest in your product so if the market will pay it then charge it. There a great cables from plenty of manufacturers not named Tara labs.
Calvinj, most cable manufacturer's you have to pay 1k and above to get good sound, I admit, I believe most high end cable's are over the top with pricing, that includes high-fidelity brand, A 10,000.00 cable should be 1k by every manufacturer.
Tthe cables are not bad it's just for the prices you pay. You expect more especially when you pay 1k and above. They won't set the world on fire but they also don't sound bad. I wouldn't say they are the best out for the money that is spent on them.
I too tried some Tara Cables, The One's and found them OK but nothing special. Luckily I bought them used and then sold them 4 months later at just a slight loss. Compared them to a cable out of Poland that's not very well known and at a fraction of the price was simply stunning. Could have been a system synergy thing who knows but based on the OP thought I'd give them a try. Lesson learnt!
Not a good informational thread at all when you can't find out about legitimate experiences with the product. How does it sound? Highs? Lows? Mids?Soundstage? Depth? Nuance? All I read is a bunch of regurgitated scientific double speak here. Please if anyone is reading this tell me about the performance in the previously mentioned terms. I don't want to hear .999999999999999999999999999999 Copper talk. Please!!
Seems to me, the prices charged for both cables and equipment, if they require a break in period, the manufacturer should do it! Can you imagine buying a product that is great out of the box? No break in required? 300 hours could take 6 months to a year! Of regular listening, not everyone can listen 10 hours a day, some folks work. You want top dollar for a cable, or preamp, break it in for me. Another great reason to buy used, so some other sucker can suffer the break in time for you!
Ans yes, it is impossible to follow a thread where more than half of the entires have been deleted.
I'm done with buying anything else. I'm so done. The system I got is the system I got. Man so glad I'm off the merry go around. I get deleted because of a simple post. Look can't a get reasonable opinion on this product on this thread. No more cables or components for me period!
It is sad that JMC’s posting was removed; it did not violate any forum rules or guidelines and was clearly meant in jest. We should not have an environment where such censorship is occurring yet we have members who can propagate disinformation and the wrong facts on a thread to promote one manufacturer or another at the expense of accuracy and respect for other members.
The offices are only 12 minutes from my house...so near and yet so far!
