are my favorite sounding Cardas IC, by a country mile, IMO the GH5c is a different sounding animal compared to both older and newer Cardas wires.
The litz based wires do take their time breaking in (their tonearm wires take forever), but you won't suffer much in the meantime.
I used to think I was alone with my above thought, but here is a quote from the site hi-fi advice:
"Very different from the Cardas house sound of late. Literally all other cardas cables sound very different from the Hexlink. The Hexlink was the top of the line before the Golden Cross and is still a remarkable cable but its character has to match your setup and taste. It is very fast, open, bold and dynamic while maintaing a natural balance. The cable is very good for acoustic music and Piano has never sounded better. It does lack the last nth of air and fluidity that newer Cardas cables offer"
As for the balance version, tried a pair of Hexlink 5c (not golden) years ago using my CDP ... however, my system sound much superior via it's single ended connections.
It should also be noted that in order to get the best out of my GH5c, I modded nearly all my equipment w/Cardas RCA's.
