Hi guys,

I was recently auditioning the Rotel 1071 pre-power combo on some
lovely $12,000 Sonus Faber speakers. They were fitted with some $200
IXOS interconnects. I played a couple of vinyl records (Miles Davis -
So what, Pink Floyd - Dark side of the moon) the bass was overwhelming
and a bit boomy at times (at least more that what I am used to).

I replaced them with some $70 Tara Labs cables and all seems to sound
crystal clear and neutral. Even the sales guy acknowledged that.


Now try some £3.99 cables from ebay (you can get some nice ones for that) and
see if they sound any different !

Or even try the £0.99 ones !

I've never bought a cable in my life. I have a box full of odds that
came bundled with bits of kit. They will see me out very comfortably.
