Hello to all ! Since I know it is going to come up, let me cover what was changed in the series II.
1. GI II was made lighter and thinner. The foils are the same but the new dielectric material is thinner and also naturally static free. This was done to add even greater flexibility as well as to lessen the need for ballast on lighter components. No static electricity is an obvious benefit.
2. GI II is stronger than original versions. We have reinforced the delicate area which left the series I a little susceptible to breakage if not handled with care.
3. GI II has a quicker "fall off" then the previous versions, so you can fit your components closer to the wall. GI I needed about 6 to 8 inches whereas GI II will drop after about 3. This was accomplished by turning the lay of the foils and shortening the heatshrink.
Te result is a more physically forgiving cord. The removal of possible static interference also added a touch of upper end detail and air.
The connectors remain Furutech FI-15 as before.
Feel free to contact me with any questions, and thank you for your continued support.
