NO LONGER FOR SALE!!! Yes, they truly are that good! After entertaining a sale transaction on these, Just to be sure, I put them back into the cable rotation/merry-go-round. Re-installed them between my pre/pro and amp, and a revelation occurred that has not happened with any of the dozens of interconnects I have auditioned then sold...Simply said, live music is emanating from my listening space...I dare not ponder to even enter the forbidden zone behind my rack under penalty of further audio nervosa/insanity!
Offering up a 1 meter pair of Antipodes Komako interconnects (version #1) with original box. The RCA's are the state of the art, beefier XHADOW brand as compared to the RCA's that come with the 2nd version, with most of (90%) of the second version performance. You will rarely see these on the used market...and for good reason...'cause they are that GOOD!!!
An excerpt from the Antipodes website:
FEATURES Conductors High purity, dead soft, solid silver wire that we have infused with gold and platinum to break up the natural resonance of silver Geometry Antipodal geometry to eliminate conductor mutual interference Insulation Only natural unbleached cotton to eliminate the signal smearing caused by plastics Connectors Generic low-mass designs, manufactured using the highest copper-content alloy practical REVIEW "The Komako's levels of transparency and sheer resolution are simply astonishing... they also endow music with gloriously authentic colors and textures, presenting a delightfully nuanced view of the subtlety and complexity of live sound and its harmonic structure... [the Komako] offers an exhilarating level of performance that surely places it amongst the world's finest." Andy Fawcett - Audiophilia - Read Reviews #1 #2 CABLE DESIGN About Our Cotton Insulation The music signal carried by a cable travels as much in the field that surrounds the wire, as in the wire itself. If you interfere with one then you impact on the other. Nearly all high-end audio cables on the market, including those claiming an air dielectric, and those using just a thin layer of cotton insulation, still put plastics in the signal’s field. Plastics cannot store and release energy as fast as the signal changes, inducing a time-smeared signal back into the wire. Woven cotton is very nearly as perfect a dielectric as air, and contains mainly air, and so it radically reduces time-smearing of the music signal. But it can't just be a thin coating and needs to be thick enough to contain the entire field surrounding the wire to avoid discontinuities in the field - such as a layer of plastic, carpets, wallboards, racks and other cables coming into the field. Antipodes Audio cables use large-scale proprietary woven pure cotton assemblies that are functionally and audibly superior to any plastic or cotton/plastic insulation. About Our Metallurgy The perfect metal for audio cable doesn't exist, and so it is necessary to use a mix of metals to achieve the characteristics needed. All of our cables employ a totally unique silver/gold/platinum wire, which we manufacture ourselves from raw ingots to achieve the correct purity, ductility, crystalline structure and virtual immunity to resonance. We make ultra-pure soft silver wire and then infuse the outer layer deeply with gold and platinum to disperse the fundamental resonance of silver, rendering it utterly neutral, without any loss of speed, resolution or phase accuracy.
