Has anyone had experience with Totem IC Sinew?

I was wondering anyone has tried Totem Sinew IC? How does it sound compare to brands such as Straightwire, Discovery, JPS Lab...and so on.

I heard it A-B’d with Kimber Silver streaks and I preferred the Totem. I would define it as pretty color-free….maybe a bit smooth sounding. Honestly, the same type of sound can be had with Grado cables that start at $35. Why not compare these and see if the Sinews are worth the extra $250.

By the way, is Totem Sinew IC is in the same league to some IC like signalcable or elementcable?

The Prestige IC is $35 and the Signature is $150.

The Prestige is the best IC for the money around today IMO.
