Great experiences with the CC. Bought all my cables there after extensive in home evaluation. Compared the Shunyata Denali and Gemini 8 Power conditioners along with Gamma and Theta power cables. Preferred the Gemini with the Gamma. Compared the Alpha, Sigma and Omega Clock cables. CC is a great asset allowing you the ability to try everything and all combinations in your system. If you’re going to upgrade or buy new cables or a PC and you’ve identified the brands under consideration in their extensive library the CC is a great resource. As you buy you get increased discounts. I get 11.5% now. Ask for Ethan Wood. Very knowledgeable and responsive. I believe he’s been there a while. They also make returns easy by supplying a UPS shipping label.
The Cable Company advice?
Anyone have experience (good/bad/meh) with consultation advice from The Cable Company?
I asked for a recommendation for 8’ speaker cables from a $20k integrated to $35k speakers. Their reply was a long pitch about their lending library. When I asked for a specific recommendation they suggested a $750 pair of cables. When I replied that my budget was $2,500 to $5k with some specifics about air, soundstage, bass clarity, etc. they suggested one step up the line to a $1,500 pair.
Considering all the high priced cables they offer I was surprised and a little skeptical.
Does anyone have experience with them to share?
