Hi Audioman. With all respect to pctower, I have the HT and the Stealth cables you both talk about. In fact, at the first meeting of a new Detroit Metropolitan area audiophile club we are getting started, for the fun of it, we listened to three different sets of speaker cables in a system comprised of Atma-Sphere amps (M-60s) and preamp, Sony 777 SACD player and Waveform speakers. The three sets of cables were the HTs you have, the Stealth mentioned by pctower and the Coincident Speaker Technology speaker cables (the ones that list for $595.00 - I believe a new more expensive one may be out by now).

The three other guys who were listening ALL thought the Stealth and the HTs sounded almost identical. Moreover, ALL of the same three gentleman preferred the Coincidents by a LARGE margin. The system owner said, "That is the first time I've heard this recording sound like a real steel guitar." A second said "Now THAT is a sound I can live with." They all stated how shocked they were at how much better the Coincidents sounded.

Now for the disclaimer portion of this post. FIRST, I am a reviewer for Ultimate Audio Magazine and have absolutely NO relationship with Coincident Speaker Technology or Israel Blume (except as an owner of his cables and a set of Super Eclipses in my second system). Second, as always, individual preferences, systems, room acoustics and tastes in music ALL make this post subject to your own auditioning as YMMV.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Frank P
