Seems like a great review, but I have one question.
Do your cables have no shield at all? Right now I am having a problem with the cable between my amp and preamp, in that there is a buzzing and hum that is introduced with their introduction into the system.
I have blue jeans cables that are shielded that remove this problem, but, they sound lousy compared to the other interconnects that I am using in this position.
I have been keep an eye out for possible replacements.
