In Reply to: RE: Quality Silver Plated Copper Pure Silver Interconnects. posted by TRUFI on October 23, 2016 at 06:15:17
Hi TRUFI,
As per our discussion earlier on in the year, I did pick up one of the Cabledyne Reference USB cables and absolutely love it, yet have gotten a report from a friends whom ears I trust whom borrowed a pair of their ICs, yet stated he wasn't very taken with them.
But in some sense I've come to realize that many while hearing in similar ways, at times listen for different things, as I tend to gauge how any given component moves me emotionally, whereas I'm listening more into the notes themselves as opposed to every little attribute like a components top end, or bass weight and so on, and while these things are important in how a system is able to reproduce the balancing act of ones system as heard in their own space, there are again times where what I crave, another does not.
With that being said........., the Cabledyne Vanguard ICs, are definitely still something I'd like to sample in my own mind.
Thanks again for the lead months ago, as I haven't forgotten this brand, and likely never shall.

Its all about synergy and personal impressions. I recently compared the Cabledyne Reference to the Vanguard interconnects and the RCA Vanguards are clearly better (smoother and better stage). Low mass Furutech RCAs are used instead of the silver Xhadow plugs used in the Reference. Also the wire and geometry is different. Ed Bowman (Cabledyne) said it was time to upgrade the Reference line after 4 years and it appears that the Vanguard is a success. When I get the bucks I may opt for their Virtuoso signature cables.
Thanks again.
I'm more then willing to give them a try before making my final decision before years end, as I've narrowed it down to three brands and shall invest accordingly........., as I once again, don't wish to go through this in less then another 4-7 years down the road, as I'm not the sort whom changes things in my system just because and tend to do things long term.
In the end, this urge too shall pass.
Sounds like you have everything worked out...
It doesn't take long to get a feel for ones options, as it merely comes down to what one wishes to spend?, and since my budget is $800 max, it then becomes a matter of looking into what reputable cable companies offer?, as I'm beyond the DIY types of cable makers, and actually would prefer something more polished in the end.
Thanks again for chiming in.
Be well PingPing.
