Let me first tell you that I am in no way associated with
the manufacturer or have even met him in my life I am neither a reviewer nor a
judge of the product it is just my thoughts on the product when I installed it
in my setup and the resultant effect.
My journey started a long time ago with an AVR for movies I
was never into 2 channel music but one day I visited a dealer in India who was
showing his setup with 2 channel which fascinated me it felt as if the musician
were there present in the room and I got sucked into 2 channel, since then I
have swapped many pieces of equipment and I could never feel the emotional connection with
the sound it made I was never satisfied or could get the feeling of the
musicians in the room effect.
My star sign is a Virgo the nature of whom is that they always strive for perfection so the hunt went on and
on changing amps, Pres, source, etc. etc.
My current setup is now as given below
Canary Amps M600 Monos 300B tubes with C1800 preamp modified
with Rike caps.
The source is a CD transport and DAC being the Ypsilon DAC100 a
non upsampling DAC with 1704 chip
Speakers are the ASCENDO top of the line M5 S SE with
external crossover.
I had all this equipment attached to a particular brand
of cables with silver conductors which were not just good but very good in
terms of all the jargons we audiophile use but yet I was not satisfied with the
performance of the whole setup.
Doing a lot of research on the internet I came across the company which belongs to Mr.ENRICO DATTI by the name VYDA from Italy which only
manufactures cables and that too just for four places in the setup and with one
name ORION the four-place being the Power cable, the Analog Interconnects RCA
or XLR, the Digital cable and last the Speaker Cable with his own end fittings manufactured
by him to his own specification in house by him, no furutech, Cardas ETC here, he does not have any kind of hierarchy
on his cables like other manufacturers like good, better or best.
I think he believes in one model cable which is the BEST period;
coming to this company I contacted Mr. Enrico Datti who over a period of the discussion turned out to be one of the most polite and thoroughbred gentlemen
who also told me that his cables are also used exclusively by VEGER turntables.
I being in India, where not many dealers are here, to try and test the products
of your choice in your environment always have to buy blind or on someone’s
recommendations or reviews.
I took the leap of faith and ordered one Interconnect
RCA and one pair of Speaker cables from VYDA they arrived in a black box and
when I opened the box I could not believe how beautiful they looked and the
craftsmanship done on them but then beauty is skin deep I was more concerned on
the sound it would make so I installed these cables into my setup and they
sounded promising and wonderful from the beginning I have only done 4 hours on
them and they are already shocking me up, according to Enrico Datti it should
take at least 100 hours and the conductors to form direction before they tell
me the true picture.
I for one can only say that if these two cables can shock me
to this extent what is gonna happen when he supplies me with the power cords
and another RCA to run from PRE to AMP though my budget is thin I hope Enrico
will be kind enough to send these cables for further evaluation and I could
share my experience here on the forum where I now feel these are just not
cables but is another component to tie up your setup for musical bliss
Shall report back once the cables have properly settled and
burned in for further conclusion on the same so it can help other audiophile
friends to be qued into that direction and enjoy music to the fullest of their
setup potential.
