Does anyone have any experience using cables made by HomeGrown Audio?  They fabricate silver cable and hybrid silver/copper cables. Thanks

I had the Homegrown Silver Lace interconnects, and I liked them a lot.  For the money, I think the Bolder Cable M-80 is a better deal, but the Silver Lace is good. . .

I have one pair of the Silver interconnects that I used between CD and preamp. I found them detailed yet eventually tired of them--don't want to go so far as to call them "bright" or "harsh" but they were leaning towards that (at least with my system).

Homegrown still offers a 30 day trial on pre-assembled cables, don't they??

Homegrown cables are 4 strand of 26 or 28g wires pure silver with another 4 for the ground part. M-80, I think is amalgamate silver with copper for the ground part, that probably make the sound warm, pure siver go to harsh or nutral. IMO

The hybrid speaker cable uses copper as well as silver.

If you like to go hybrid for the warm sound, I will go with Bolder because of Eichmann Bullet plug.
