MS Audio / Klotz MC5000 interconnects build offer for all AoS members

[wee tee cee]

Brian made me up a set of 5000s with a new plug for me dac-pre/pre-hpa/pre-mono blocks.

I was running top notch Mark Grant wbt silver ICs but in a long IC/short speaker configuration.

After getting a couple of hundred hours on them and getting my head round what they do Im delighted.

I listen a lot on cans and find it separates the men from the boys cable wise-Brians cables could have a square go with all comers( Glaswegian for-they can hold theyre own).

His USB cable is something special-but that for another day!!!

Are these the black plugs?

Sorry Kevin dont know...they are metal bodied with gold ends. Nothing like the ms audio/eichman silver bullet plastic jobbies.

They're just good quality gold plated plugs gents . Better than Neutriks IMO ( on these cables anyway )

Ok thanks. I was wondering if it was the POM bodied MS Audios, but it appears not.
The MS Audio are good, but the lead time annoys me!

Hello Brian,

I would like to buy a 1 meter pair with MS plugs

Hi Khoi , I would be happy to build you a set of these interconnects . If you make another few posts ( 4 I think ) I can discuss this with you further via the AOS private message system .

Ok will post a little bit more

Actually I have a question that I could not find the reply on the entire thread

How do they sound like? Especially compared to Klotz AC110 for which I have a pair already (with neutrik)

I read they sound better but are they more analytical for instance? I'm really looking for a cable that is not bright or etched, rather warm

I have a rega DAC (filter 4) with Elicit R and Dynaudio speakers. Using Belkin PureAV right now (which sound great)

Tried AC110, flashback premiere, cardas hexlink...etc.

I used these cables with a Rega DAC and a Brio R for many years Khoi . They are not bright at all and sound warm with plenty of detail and a nice big soundstage . They must suit a variety of systems and listeners as the feedback is excellent for them .
I have some AC110 here , however it just sounds lightweight compared to the MC5000s .
