    Obviously, you've never heard them.

    I guess you didn't get the message when the posts you made yesterday were deleted, so I'll spell it out for you. Your trolling is not welcome here.

    Give them time to burn in. One day they might sound smooth the next day like ****. So be patient, I got very frustrated with my first MIT's to the point I would pull them out and put in my AudioQuest cables. But once they have the hours on them you will be happy.. Now I'm right back where I was burning in my cables but this time it's the whole system..I'm going to need the month to get them where I want them..

    Nice pick up on the cables Larry. It would kill me not to mess with my system for a month straight.

    I know what you mean. First I bought no name 12g speaker wire on a spool and then upgraded to AQ type 4s. When I first swapped them out I felt like I wasted my money. But after they burned in after a few weeks they really improved. I just hope for the same degree of sound improvement with the AVt-3 over the AQ type 4s.

    I'm enjoying it, and the payoff will be nice. What's even better is these cables are paid for in full;) no credit card crap.well I used my card to pay for them and two days later I went to the bank and paid it off..

    I like the AVt's better then the AQ type 4's.

    AQ type 4 is what I have in my HT rig though.

    Yea I am running a EXp-1 to my center channel, I swapped it with one of the AQ type 4s that go to my towers and noticed even better clarity with the treble. That is what made me want to make the upgrade.

    About 50hrs on these and I will go on the record and say this is by far the best investment I have spent on my system. Was it expensive?? Well Yes it was. I am sitting here in awe grinning from ear to ear.

    I am so glad I went for it. The bass detail is off the hook it is tighter with the hit. The detail in the highs is fantastic. And after talking to Joe and Jesse, they both say the best is yet to come...:)

    I highly recommend these cables. If you want to transform your system and sound well these cables will do so in just a few hours...

    Back to nirvana!!!

    Larry.

    My cables are sounding really good, and I have just over 100hrs on them. One thing I noticed is the volume in sound. You don't have to turn the volume up very high. The clarity and the lower end is fantastic even at lower volume levels.

    Your speakers don't accept spades? Or they didn't come with enough pieces to hook them up at all?

    Nice, can not wait! I use my speakers for double duty ht/2ch so it should be about 2/3 weeks I would guess.

    Well after 200hrs or so I quit counting. I will say you need to have pacience with MIT's there are days you will be like WTF it just don't sound good then there are the days they sound fantastic. Well mine have smoothed out now and sound beautiful with everything I play.

    I'm guessing I'm around the 450hr mark. The highs,mids and lows are more detailed and spot on. The SDA effect is more pronounced as well.
