    I have the Planus II speaker cables and the balanced IC's and compared to the to other cables that were in my system they made a huge positive difference. They are airy and natural with suspended tonal quality.

    Their customer service is top also notch...while moving my gear I damaged one of my spades...sent them up to MG with a check$$ also had them trimmed a foot and they were shipped right back (shipped on Monday back by Saturday all regular ground to Colorado), and my check$$ was returned along with it....great guys
