Hidiamond vs Hifidelity interconnects
Very interesting reading, just when I thought I read all the forum articles on this topic I stumble across another :-)!

Highstream, thanks for the heads up regarding the price increase. I just spoke to Robert and ordered a pair of the HiDimond 8 speaker cables and one P3 power cord..I anxiously wait for the arrival. Could be ten days.
