    ok so i have the loan spotfire interconnects here,
    im already using the tonearm version of the spotfire,all be it not properly bedded in yet,id say about 6hrs use so far.
    ive stuck the loan spotfire pair last in the chain,going from my pre amp to the amp,between this is one pair of sommer cables connecting my head amp to the pre.

    once again ive found another step up,im listen to a lot of julian bream at the moment and i can say that i noticed some more clarity coming through,the acoustic guitar twang and finger plucks in particular,finger slides have become quite realistic,not that they wern't before but now they are a joy too hear,all adding to that 'he's in the room' experience.im not there yet i should say but i feel these cables are a step in the right direction.

    oliver told me you can hear a difference with each interconnect thats replaced and so far i agree.
    if you own a set of these cables you need 2 sets lol
    they are without doubt the best cables ive used to date.

    another order coming your way soon mate. nice one!

    Hi Jamie,

    Thanks for the positivity, it's always nice to know that they are living up to my claims!

    Just for ultimate transparency, I said "I" heard a difference with each pair I added and hoped the same happened for you. I am really pleased it has.

    Thanks for taking the time and leaving a review. It's appreciated.

    I'll await the PM,

    Once you have the right pieces you just stop. Cartridge, cables, Arm, TT, preamp, speakers are all settled here. Just the amp to go.

    What was interesting was when I took the Spotfires out of my system and put the Sommers back in I really noticed the missing detail. When you put a new piece of equipment in your set up for the first time you're listening for every difference and might even kid yourself you're hearing improvements but going back to the old cables with no expectation the differences become very obvious. Keep an eye on that inbox Oliver.

    Still watching Ian lol.

    In all seriousness, it is usually the case that when i take something out for the new item, then put the old thing back after a few hours, that I realise what it brought (or didn't) to the performance.
