Anybody have any experience positive or negative with these?
Please respectfully do not respond if you are an anti-cable differences guy/gal, and I don't mean the brand.
Thanks,
Mike

I had a pair for the AK swap program, terminated phone cord as far as I could tell. Lackluster performance on my rigs. An almost 'hollow' sound in the midrange. Bass control lacked. The highs were ok, not quite as liquid as I like, but more than listenable.
Those comparions to Signal Cable Analog Two, and Audioquest Diamondback.

One of the problems with getting any kind of consistency in thoughts (other than synergy of course) is from what I gather they seem to keep changing the design. From what I know I think there is only one cable offered at any period in time and the design is in constant flux. Not exactly the kind of business model that instills confidence in a product.

latest white Grover S interconects
(I suspect I am the guy referred to in George Daniel's post above, a I got my SRS-2s from him last year)
I highly recommend the latest white techflex Grover S ICs.
Mine took ~ 50 hours for complete burn-in and reached maybe 90% after about 20 hours.
I am using them throughout my entire system (see bottom of post):
Compared to earlier Grover S (black or white), I hear new level of previously masked or hidden detail in the music and greater frequency extension in both lows and highs, particularly in the highs. These are quieter (cleaner, clearer), more detailed, smoother, and more open.
Definitely now at "reference" level in my system to my ears.
The latest white Grover S are now in the "whole nother league."
(See posts on Audio Nervosa comparing earlier white Grover S to Stealth Indras and JPS Aluminatas, as well as to Straley Reality ICs, VenHaus Audio Pulsars, Speltz Anti-cables, etc.).
There is a 2nd "group buy" started for these current white Grover S interconnects on Audio Nervosa forum.
www.audionervosa.com
You may join Audio Nervosa and order through the 2nd group buy to get up to a 30% discount over the normal pricing of $150 for a one-meter pair with RCAs. Pricing for other lengths and terminations are already posted in the group buy section there.
I e-mailed to my friend George near Atlanta to alert him to get some of these. I then mailed him a pair of my white Grover S ICs to burn-in and audition.
George e-mailed:
Got em friday. I'm going to call you monday if thats ok,,first,,they are beautiful,,my ears are not as good as they used to be but,,,the grovers seem to be more refined,smoother,and the mids and highs are just simply amazing. I'm sold on them already. I'm going to get in on the group buy round two,,Thanks for helping me deplete my savings,,,you were right,,these cables are something else,,thanks again,,I forsee a big cable sale on Club Polk
Regards to all--george
