There are other posts below, but the cable they used is not the twisted pair, and appears to use a cheap RCA plug too. Hard to tell if they all listened to one system, or that multiple users using different systems, and just compiling data from different view points. But from my experience, I'm sold on the twisted pair products, especially with Cardas or WBT RCAs. The "Weakest Link" could be the users or makers or reference equipment they used too.

  - Jon, I find the 89259 to sound "rough", "distorted" and "aggressive" against a straight bypass.... - Thorsten 13:52:29 06/27/01 ( 7)
