![]() The effect is that voices seem to pop out of nowhere more then before with an added emphasis of the acoustic atmosphere of the venue. Voices that were articulate before were even more pronounced and holographic. I received my Silver Breeze last week and upon initial listening impressions I have to say that the Silver Breeze is an excellant cable. The factory will service the arm and install the new wire for around $350. I did mine and it made an audible difference. I'd go with the vdH/SME or the Cardas (after checking with Lyra -) but more important, if your tonearm is older than ~10yrs (not exactly sure, email the factory and check the serial number) you should do the the internal wiring upgrade, to the newer vdH MCS 150 silver Litz. Cardas, vdH Litz or SME Litz (same part), Audioquest, Sumiko, Nerve, Jelco, Ortofon. I haven't heard either Siltech's or Stereovox's phono cables, but at $4k+ and $2K+ respectively, they better be good -)įor headshell leads, there are so many good ones. Sleeper of the year at $600 (you can audition one for free) is the Silver Breeze from Silver Audio I would have bought one if I hadn't accidentally scored a Venustas CES for about the same price) I can only afford the Venustas, but John has gone right up through the line, so you can believe him when he says they get even better.Ĭardas GR, Graham IC50, Hovland Music Groove 2 aren't bad. Sounds like you're listening through a blanket.
