MIT Shotgun S3 - Standard 6 Feet(2 Meter) - Speaker Cable - 9/10 - *SOLD*

MIT

This is for a pair of MIT cables that I've used in my rig(s) for a long time. These cables were my first investment into interconnects and I'm staying within the same manufacturer, just going Shotgun S3 Bi-Wire.

I believe in cables, but only to a point...the S3 series from MIT was my benchmark. I demo'd the S2 and S1 and found zero benefit in the respective series. The Magnum had better bass response, but not enough to justify the cost. This is the best bang for buck MIT level.

MIT S3 Speaker Cable

If you are a cable believer, this is about as good as it gets...you would be done at this point.

www.usedcables.com

www.ebay.com

Please feel free to do you own research, but I just want these out the door.

I received a great price on these when they were brand new, and there's no reason why the next person shouldn't benefit as well.

Includes: Original Box, original packaging, user manual.

    The speaker cables are 6ft. The current MIT cable lengths, start at 8ft. I have been told that the 6ft length is being phased out, as the 8ft length has become more standard.

    Thanks. I am a big MIT fan since introducing two pair of Shotgun IC's into my system. I get incredible detail without the brightness silver cables added along with a wider/deeper soundstage with natural (to me) vocals. Some say MIT marketing is hype, but I now firmly believe that some cables do embellish high frequencies.

    Jesse helped nudge me into Shotguns, along with the list of respected forum members that use and like them.

    Well, Monday thru Thursday perhaps :D

    I'm really looking forward to Rich getting these so I can experience the MIT 'synergy' that I've read so much about.

    Hey now, don't confuse movement with action. A short period of meditation helps schedule and balance the next weeks workload.;) :D
