Old standbys and the flavor of the month

As far as ICs go, I've had Monster Cable in my system (great shielding is about the nicest thing I can say about them.)
DIY Kimber PBJ (did not suck).
DIY Homegrown Super Silver II (also did not suck, and still in service.)
My new fave is on loan from Cope: the Audio Note Lexus. This is a copper Litz design. Compared to the Super Silver, they're a little more refined and "mature". My best comarison is that the Homegrown is like a fine wine right out of the bottle; the Lexus is like the wine after it's been decanted for an hour and had a chance to open up. I've got Lexus ruuns from my Seduction to MJ head amp or FP, and from FP to Cope's WannaGlows. Good stuff.
I've never used or tried mongo expensive cables.
