@noske That is what I normally see is lots of impressive sounding words, but they never talk about audio. A cable with 94% of the speed of light? That sounds very impressive. How does that matter for what gets to my speakers? I think that is a case of extrapolating well beyond a domain of validity.
Well I joined the Silversmith FIDELIUM Speaker cable club today
The story behind this goes like this. I bought new speakers in December and their placement forced me to stop using my Wireworld Gold Eclipse III bi wire cables because they were too short. So for an interim cable I found a 2 meter pair of the "Regular" Eclipse III wires used being that I wanted to keep it in the "Family." My entire loom for the most part is Wireworld Gold Eclipse III interconnects. The Reg Eclipse III seemed fine but I alway felt I was missing something I was used to before, like it was just a little veiled comparatively. I've researched the hell out of cables and was just going to get a set of the New Eclipse 8's but when they raised the price for a 2M pair another $500 to $2000 I decided to look elsewhere, scouring used cables for months. Well through that process I discovered the many threads and positive reviews on the Silversmiths, so since they were more like what I was hopefully willing to spend I ordered a 6 foot set. Today I placed them into my system and after about one minute into the track I was astonished! I couldn't move from my chair, I listened to the entire album in astonishment. They literally "fixed" my system, it's never ever sounded this good. It's only been a few hours so i won't go into everything that happened right now but new cables are not supposed to sound this good straight out of the box. I am lucky. they blend with my system right away. The Bass was so immediately impactful I just cannot believe a cable can make this much change, the inner detail and transparency, wow! I know these things have been raked over the coals in these forums and their are some that are naysayers, but in my case I was one of the lucky ones because these babies are not going back to Chris! I cannot stop listening, it's amazing.

Exactly, I was skeptical at first, it was cheap i purchased in 2020, Tried it against all my cables,
I run, OTL, SET and Solid State, the Fids have performed at a higher degree than my copper or silver cables at a fraction of the price. Nothing more can be said you either try it and stop being a cheap ass or shut up and go to sleep. |
@deludedaudiophile Do you have any sound reason for why so many people like these? Any science behind it or are we mad, delusional or deaf? Are we wrong in your opinion? You are dead set against these cables because you have calculations, reasons as to why they are bad. I just wonder what would happen if you auditioned a pair? Jeffrey will be happy to take them back, and you can verify your findings for yourself. Just wondering, Thanks. |
