I finally got around to installing my MIT Shotgun S2 speaker cables and give them a test run. Jeff, Polkitup2, gave a me great deal through the forum. Thank you verrrrry much.
I am running LSiM703 speakers, a NAD 356bee integrated, and a Teac CD1000 cd player.
My previous speaker cables were an older model AQ- Slate bi wires. Difference between the MITs and AQs are huge. While the AQs are not bad, the MITs are out of the world. The details and vocal clarity are amazing. More to come folks

    One quality I love about the MIT is how they seem to lay everything out in front of you.

    Its hard to beat the MITs, either in speaker cables or interconnects.

    Glad you are enjoying them Kevin. After I sold them I was using Audioquest Type 8 cables while my new MIT cables (S1's) burned in on a test system for 10 days. I was glad when it came time to put the MITs back in my main system. They just do it right for me.

    I love the whole aspect of cable break in. Getting them new and watching them transform. Mit cables are truely amazing. The s1 has a huge soundstage, if you closed your eyes you couldn't pin point the speakers. Rain sounds natural, non cable believers are seriously missing out. MIT cables aren't just wire.

    Already working on it, my friend....it appears the S2 series were the least popular between the S1, S2, and S3s, at least based on what I see on the used market. If anyone has a line on RCA 1 to 3 meter, let me know!!!

    Why not shoot beyond the shotgun for the ic's on the used market as there are lots of high end MIT for great prices.

    Because each series works best with each other.
