I have the opposite - too much lower down and nothing on top :(

The development of the 1210 continues a pace. my new tonearm cable has just arrived from Greece, this is an all solid silver affair with Furutech DIN and eichmann silver bullets and a few other bits and pieces. I now have a completely silver setup. Everything is silver, tonearm wire, interconnects, powerleads!! So, along with the SR7XL I have a lot of listening to do to discern the differences. As always will keep you updated.
PS Richard Blackmoore's guitar on highway star has never sounded better on the Made in Japan album. :eek:

Right brand new tonearm cable fitted, its up against Nordost TYR. First impressions are very very good indeed!
Seems promising, Andy... Look forward to your more detailed thoughts.
Is it the 428 Phono cable you've got or the 432.5?

Tbh im not really sure I went for some weird quad geometry cable with solid silver rather than silver litz or silver plated copper. I'll have to dig out the emails from Yannis. I'm listening to Iron Maiden at the moment and treble is out of this world. Very clear, great instrument seperation and bass seems to be more defined with less bloom and more impact. Each instrument can be followed with greater ease. The real tester will be Dream Theater!!! Those guys should have been employed just for devising torture tracks for 1210's.
Black clouds & silver linings track one will hit 102db in my room with ease :-)Quote:

If you can find a copy of Trente Moller - The Last Resort (there are a few still out there apparently) that will give the tracking abilty of the new setup a very nice test :-)
Interesting, Andrew, I have gone the opposite way, from silver to copper cables throughout.Quote:

For me, what's most important, is not necessarily the material the conductor is made from, but how well the overall construction of the cable has been executed, in terms of addressing known sonic challenges in cable design - and doing it successfully!
Getting bogged down on whether cables are silver or copper is missing the point somewhat, IMO. It's not primarily what attracted me to the design that Yannis has come up with.
