Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?
rja-i have the exact same sensitivities and system issues and run screaming from silveras anathema in my system, and, i think your analysis is apt for the rapture with the exception that, for me (of course), the differences between the rapture and...

You know, I also have a pair of the new Edens and they are a hard to beat bargain at their price. They share the emotional involvement of listening to music through the Extremes, but have less midrange bloom. They don't carry the detail of the Rap...

ok, so that was a little over the top. i was trying to think of what, if anything, might make me wish my family was not home for a few hours and that's where my mind went. off the cuff and right out of hand. made me laugh though. on the other hand...

I have to agree with Hiernote and John Mcgrogan in that gold is great, especially in an amalagam. Too bad the price of it is soaring! I think that the Raptures' addition of platinum (not too cheap either) to the gold/silver/copper amalgam adds som...

Bobf- I'm kinda sorta thinkin' you sorta kinda just did!And, while I'm at the thinkin' thing, I thought would reprint and edit my yammering a bit, so my thoughts on the Rapture I/C's would be more easily accessed right here on this thread. No need...

So, I thought I would post my impressions of the Rapture I/C's, but Steve beat me to it and posted them on his new ad. Pretty much all the comments on his ad are mine and they pretty much sum it up. They are the best cables I have heard. I have no...

Yep, bobf, eden's look like their coming up, eh? pant pant woof. i have a strange aural pavlovian response to new iterations of the gabriel stuff....and drooling from my ears is unbecoming, but done in the privacy of my own home. steve was kind en...

OOOPS! I meant I liked the Rev II a bit better on my AMP and the Rapture on my source components. But, the Rapture is still fantastic on my amp as well....sorry for the poor editing.

Here we are. What a lot of passionate whorls of information. Thanks a gabillion! I may be a Marx Brother when i say 'Hooray for Captain Spalding, Horray Horray Hooray!'I had an all too brief time listening to the Rapture PC's in my system before s...

cool, jd. i hope to hear those goodies along with your cables one day! i checked out your system and i think our sound preference is pretty similar. of course, i have a somewhat pared down version, but it's working well for me now...i just wish i ...

Wow, a lot of vociferous exchanges. Too bad, but, on the other hand, that's what makes a horse race.It's true that we all depend on honesty and divulging of associations, etc. and Audiobuzz is way out of line there, Probably something a monitor/mo...

Heya John-Is the Dream still on your pre or are you checking it out on other pieces? I have gotten both a BMI Hammerhead Gold MK1 and 2 and am listening up on different applications....my Cary CD 306/200 still loves the BMI's, but my AES pre seems...

Wow! I wrote that? I sound good on paper. Having written all that, I still stand by it....and hate tiger balm at the temples as it really burns the eyes... BUT, I will be upgradng the the Revelations anyway!. I can't resist the temptation forever ...

"we don't need another hero"! ok, so it's a bad song....i think any and all of us would just plain buy the best cable they can find for their system as long as they could afford it. big baked potato guy or small fry guy. best is best. and that's w...
