KCI Pure Gold and the benefits
The Silkworm+(pronounced Silkworm Plus) is a project that I've been working on for quite a while now. My goal was to design a cable offering the same level of performance as our Silkworm Special Edition but without the extreme cost of the S.E. We ...

Hi Joe,Nice to see you here Joe, I hope you're doing well. I apologize for my delay, the did some work on the firewall here and I've been unable to get online since yesterday evening!Hmmm, an S.E. owner asking about the newest Silkworm...I have to...

Art,Thanks for the email, a Beta package will be on the way this afternoon. Looking VERY forward to your thoughts. This newer Silkworm is something I've been working on for a while but I wanted to keep quiet about it until I worked out the fine de...

Hello Arthur,How are you doing? Did you ever get the newer Vac mono-blocks you were waiting for a while back? Yes sir we do have a few things brewing; finally after two years we are rebuilding our website and I hope to have it launched in the next...

Hi Art,Sorry for the delay, I've just been super busy. I have been working on a few new products; one is a pure silver power cord using the same wire as the Firefly(of course larger gauge) and am also working on our new copper interconnect that go...

Hey Geared4me!! How are ya? Good to see you're still poking around the "audio world". The speaker cables Mr. Art has are a pretty simple design actually, it's the wire that is the real gem. They are a single run of pure silver wire(12 a.w.g.)for e...

Rx8man,Thanks for your concern but we lucked out and most of the storm missed us, just got some rain and a little wind(which is pretty much the norm in Texas). I did have my boat down on the coast but once again, lucked out and she's fine!Snopro,G...

Hey now, I think we all know that I invented the internet and that I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN! Seriously though, He's just yanking your chain Rx8, he is actually a super nice guy but quite the smart aleck as well and he'll freely admit tha... 
XLR-RCA: Adapters or Custom Cable?
AudioJedi,Not trying to "toot my own horn" here but there is a set of XLR-RCA cables I built a while ago up for sale right here on Audiogon for a very reasonable price, I believe $95. Do a search for KCI and you'll find them. Hope this helps ya.Si... 
XLR Connector Comparison
My biggest complaint on the Neutriks doesn't come from their performance but rather comes from a mfg's point of view and it's the strain relief design. Working with a "clamping" type strain relief vs the Neutrik "twisting" type of strain relief ca... 
XLR Connector Comparison
I agree with Redkiwi. I've build quite a few cables with different XLR connectors and my least favorite is Neutrik. The reason "most mfg's use them" is cost related, they can easily be had for about five bucks a piece. I'm not saying cost is the o...

I apologize for my absence, after pulling a real dumb stunt a few weeks ago I injured myself(broke a couple of ribs and ruptured my spleen!) and have been taking it easy trying to get this old body to heal. I'm feeling better now so you'll see mor...

Which preamp Dodd or Cary slp-98L
Mrjstark,Thank you for the link but, I'm still not seeing a shoot out. However,I am seeing a VERY enthusiastic Dodd owner rave about how great his premap is vs others. Again, could you please point us to the thread where this "shoot out" took plac... 
Which preamp Dodd or Cary slp-98L
Mrjstark,I read through the thread on the circle and I really don't see a "shoot out", I did see a bunch of guys sitting around and listening to music but no real comments of "Dodd vs Modwright". Could you point me to the shoot out?? I'd like to r...
