    the conductors are the same colour as the GQ interconnect although the only pics I can find show a cable with two phonos to a mini jack and there are only two conductors, whereas yours looks there are 3.

    They are

    "Russ Andrews Kimber Crystal-Cu Interconnects"

    "Crystal-Cu" is likely to be UP-OCC Copper. I can't find any information on the Dielectric though.

    Look nice and will probably sound good but due to the name will probably be incredibly overpriced for what they are.

    The way they're made (braiding the cable) is likely to provide decent interference rejection but not as good as a fully shielded cable.

    Great rep though,

    russ andrews version of the kimber timbre interconnect with the addition of a fourth conductor (Timbre has two on one leg and one on the other) to make it symmetrical. cost I think £184

    Cheers Grant , now I am confused as they look identical to the Crystal cu like Oliver said?
    Will my system benefit from such a cable when I only have the one pair ( my other interconnects are van den hul M.C. D102 mk3 ) ?
