Ixos ixotica 1m
IXOS IXOTICA
Not sure what model number this is to be honest
Original list around the £400 mark
last one sold online at £130
Not as bass heavy as the IX2. very clean and detailed sound without the edginess, closer sound character wise to the IX3
£75 pay pal gift

I'm gone.
I'm using 2 pairs of the Ixos IX2 at the moment - pre to buffer and buffer to power - and they look very like that photo!
"Bass heavy"? Dunno about that.
But superbly transparent and dynamic. Great cables.
EDIT - actually I don't think mine are IX2 at all. Not the same as reviewed by TechRadar or as shown on Google Images.
Mine are the same as those for sale here, I think - and they are superb, imho!

These are a ltd edition pair of interconnects...I've just sold a pair recently...in a leopard skin patterned hardwood case...I think there was only 1000 pairs made...but don't quote me on that...I believe they were made as a posh demo set for a hifi show...and they are very very good....

The IX2 were slightly thicker cables with a white sheath Jerry and I used them for a year.
Sold them on to a Gent on this forum.
when I say bass heavy , I do not mean it in a negative. They pushed out a deep fully fleshed bass without the flabby overhang.
These as you say are extremely dynamic and transparent , closer to the IX3
As you well pointed out when I sold the IX3 these are in a different league to the lower priced IXOS cables and punch way above the weight

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. 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.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
