I cannot say there was a jaw dropping moment to be honest, but my initial perception is that they seem rather good at "untangling" music into it's individual strands, so bass is distinct and easy to follow note by note, so the timbres and harmonics shine clearly through. While treble per se is clear and crisp, it seems to have lost the air, space, ambience and depth in the recordings which I did apparently have with the Mambas. This isn't an absolute appraisal though, merely a snapshot of the cable as immediately installed and less than an hour at that.
Tonight I will have a longer head-to-head session with the Mambas plus several other cables that David Brook has kindly sent me to play with.
