    I've been hesitating to say anything about them because I didn't notice an overwhelming improvement over my existing Dynaudio OCOS cable :eek: They're definitely better in the ambience and presence departments but that's about all I could say.

    I find differences in bits of kit/cable very hard to notice if the time between listening to each one is large (as is clearly the case when changing speaker cable) - unless the difference is HUGE. I might try putting back the OCOS just to compare again (and often an improvement is more noticeable when you lose it).

    OTOH, it may just be that the OCOS cable is very good. It's certainly very rare! The Isolda is better, no doubt, but perhaps I was expecting too much after all the hype :rolleyes:

    Michael.
