mapleshade ic's...

As Ralphie's dad said "Fra-geely, that's Italian".

Mine got fried when a visitor stepped on one. Sent it in for repair and they quoted so high(about 75% of new pair cost) that I told him to throw them away. Very disappointing.

Sonically, I like them. Cheers,

Sonically OK, biggest PITA to use I've encountered in 40+ years in audio,very fragile as well.

Great marketing, not so great cables. Were bested by many "budget" cables in a month long shootout, including Audio Art and Kimber PBJ especially. They went back to Mapleshade. Not recommended by me, but YMMV.

Not for me either..

Thanks for response's guys...using acoustic zen silver ref's...not unhappy with them...just kickin tires.
