My system....what and how will cabling impact?
03-21-2021 5:38pmStill use my Kimber 8TC from the nineties and when I change speakers they sound differently.The fact that 8TC's are said to be classics by many is the understatement of all time.   
MIT Evo One vs. Transparent Ultra vs. MIT Matrix Rev 60?
My experience is similar to nmmusicman.  I have used MIT off and on for many years and was curious about the EVO line which was new at the time.  I tried a couple of EVO Two IC's and thought they were a big step forward from previous MIT offerings...

Worst Concerts You Have Attended ??
