    In,

    I've mulling grabbing a set of these. sometimes the wire comes off as a bit of snake oil....but there recordings are so good so they gotta know what they're doing.

    have been curious about these wires for a while

    Phil, I replaced the MS with WireWorld Eclipse 6.0 with matching jumpers. It was a tough choice considering how well I think the MS performs. The WW had more slam in the bottom and the mids just jumped to life. The highs were about equal.


    ahardy17, stick around awhile, contribute to the forum and your count will get there by the next Karma.

    I heard them at Phil's and they do sound great. However I'm not in as I am good with my MITs.

    Great karma though.
