    Just had a chance to try Brians (Brian2597)new silver/gold hybrid rca interconnect cables and whilst not the most eloquent wordsmith when it comes to describing what I hear I thought it only fair to pen a few words of praise.

    Most of you will, I think, be familiar with the Klotz/MS Audio ICs that have been doing the rounds and which I have been using for some time, and have been very happy with, but you know what it's like always trying to get the best performance without breaking the bank.

    Previously I thought that good ICs had to be big, prohibitively expensive, thick, chunky unwieldy things with posh plugs on, but these are just skinny little silver, flimsy looking flexible wires with basic looking RCA connectors.

    These new ICs are like a breath of fresh air has blown through my system, to give you an idea I would like to use the age old analogy that hearing music recreated by a hifi is like looking at a picture through a window, now prior to fitting this new IC the picture looked ok but I would have a quick glance then become dis-interested and skip to another view, now it's like the window cleaners have been and not only have they cleaned both sides of the glass but inside the double glazing and gave my specs a quick buff. I can now sit for hours listening to piece after piece without losing concentration the picture is that clear and much better focussed. After about 20 hours running in the performance is absolutely astounding, simply put they seem to just get out of the way and let the music flow.

    I believe a few on here have already trialled and kept these ICs and for good reason, the Klotz/MS Audio ones are good but these IMO are in a different league.

    Brian's keeping the recipe for these close to his chest as he has invested a considerable amount of time and effort in developing these new interconnects, so please don't ask for the recipe, but I believe that he may be persuaded to build these to order.

    If you are happy with your Klotz/MS Audio ones then be with you, if, like me however, you are always on the lookout for cheapish ways to improve your sound then you owe it to yourself to try these out.

    And NO before you ask I'm not getting a kickback and don't even know the guy apart from ordering cables from him, I just think he deserves some well earned praise for his excellent work.

    Brian

This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    I'm now using Brian's Klotz cables between my DAC and amp and CD player to amp.

    Having recently acquired a rather nice Arcam CDP I've been able to experiment a bit trying different cables to see which best suit it's character. The Klotz pair Brian sent me to demo stole the show in this combination so it was an easy decision to go the whole hog in the system.

    For me they have a great balance, detailed yet never add any harshness or hardness to the sound. They are cost effective and seem a perfect match for my current components. Brian as always a lovely guy to deal with and sent the cables promptly.

    I'm very happy with these.
    One of these days... I'm going to cut you into little pieces.
