Well it's been awhile now that my system has been running Grover's cables. I started off having Grover make me his digital cable (from the Sonos > CAL DAC) along with with his IC's (from the CAL DAC > pre). I figured that was a good starting point & would give me a good idea of how well they perform. Long story short, I loved the difference they made & ordered more IC's for my mono amps. It takes him some time to make them so one needs to be patient. All I can say is that one will never know how good something is is less they give them a try. I am tickeled pink I gave Grover's cables a shot. http://www.groverhuffman.com/home
He also makes PC's & speaker cables to round out his line. But presently I very, very pleased with the Shunyata PC's on the CAL DAC & mono blocks & the LAT International speaker cables for my KEF's...http://www.latinternational.com/index.php/product/ss-1000%20mk%20ii.html that I don't see making a move there for quite some time.
The digital cable replaced a Black Cat Veloce & the IC's replaced Morrow Audio MA2 IC's. Now don't get me wrong both those cables are excellent and served me well. I'll be posting them soon for anyone looking to try something new & exciting.

i just emailed Grover today... he says he is going to make my 2M digital IC tomorrow or the next day and ship it off.
I just figured out the right combo of Mundorf MOX resistors in my RSb's to replace the failing pots in the mid and high circuits... and i am now very excited to get this cable. Right now i have Morrow MA2 and MA4, and a SUB3 set.
who knows what the future holds?Polk Lsi9

I think you're really, really going to like Grover's digital cable. It did it for me. Are you going to stay with the Morrow's or are you going to give Grover's IC's a try. It would make for a fun shoot out."2 Channel & 11.2 HT "Two Channel:Magnepan LRSSchiit Audio Freya S - SS preConsonance Ref 50 - Tube preParasound HALO A21+ 2 channel ampBluesound NODE 2i streameriFi NEO iDSD DAC Oppo BDP-93KEF KC62 sub Home Theater:Full blown 11.2 set up.

You do need to be patient it seems. I ordered a cable from him almost a month ago and it still hasn't been made. I do hope to receive it one day and hear what all the fuss is about -
Good on ya'll I've been using the Grover IC's for about 5 years or so,, the "whiteys" and the 2nd iteration of the black/graphite. I'm pleased with their performance. Maybe Roger will chime in,, he has more experience with the latest iterations and the power cables too.JC approves....he told me so. (F-1 nut)
