    I reiterate, the only IC I've found that replaced Ben's are the MIT Shotgun IC series. That is a really good testament as to the quality and sound of his cables.

    Are the ones in the pictures what mine will look like? Or will they be orange? It doesn't matter either way. I was just curious.:)


    Good luck on your sale...

    Well things are going pretty good with these. The Carver guys have started getting their ears on them from some tips from Polkies. Thanks Guys. I didn't notice there wasn't even a pic of these here. Well here is another batch that is going out tomorrow.
    Thanks again

    Don't but them for the looks. Buy them for the build quality and most importantly.......the SOUND. If you are looking for more resolution in the rig, here's your ticket. ;)

    For sh%ts and giggles I swapped these out for a pair of Monoprice cables in my bedroom rig. The Monoprice cables sounded like garbage in comparison, muted highs, distant mids, and bloated bass. As Joe(HI) mentioned, the next step up from these are MIT Shotguns.

    Its still black, but my flash sucks on my camera. I wish I had something better. The cables look much better than the pics IMHO.

    Actually this batch coming up is going to be orange(I justl ove the orange), white, and white. It's really hard to get this stuff. I can get stranded all day long, but the solid is hard to come by. The stranded just doesn't sound as good, and takes way longer to burn in.
