| Has anyone made interconnects using Duelund 2.0 Silver Foil? @jcny111...+1 for the Helix - but then I do have a little bit of a bias :-)Seriously - give the Helix a try. A few members use them and love themYou might be able to use the silver foil as the signal conductor if you can insulate it.But the UP-OCC... | |

| A Better Bluesound AC Cable? @calvinandhobbes - I with you on that score - I now consider cables more important than my components.I’ve been auditioning and building cables for over 6 years and had the opportunity to try cables on a variety of systems AND that time also allow... | |
