I've been breaking in my Bi-wire Julian Speaker cables (I did also get a single cable for my center channel) for approximatly 15 hours on a diet from Chris Isaak to Guns & Roses. The first listen, out of the box, was very good. After a little break-in time they sound awsome! All of the detail I like, with the smoothness I was looking for. The cables softened up the Airiness in Chris Isaak's and Patrica Barber's voices that was present with my Tara-Labs Prism Bi-wires. Piano strikes ring out very crisp and smooth, and the cymbals are very dynamic. There is a section on the Chris Isaak Baja Sessions CD that used to produce a frequency that would rattle my left tweeter. The Julians tamed this frequency and have definitly impressed me.
Home Theater performance was equally impressive. The whole front end seems to have a balance that was not there before. Tarzan and Toy Story 2 had more detail and resolution in the subtle effects. The explosion of the helicopter in The Matrix was not distorted at all. You could hear every little explosion that comprised the whole sequence.
The build quality is top notch, and the copper spades are heavy duty. The Bi-wire cables are "SHOTGUN" style with two different guage wires. The people at ZuCable were very helpful and quick to respond with all of my e-mail and phone questions. Thanks to Sean and Marty for getting in touch with me through the forum.
There is a 30 day guarantee, so give these cables a try, you won't be disapointed.
