Rowdy 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2008 You can try the classifieds in the Echoloft forums for good second hand ICs. These would have been burned in and you can get relatively good ones for the price. My personal favourite was the Nordost Blue Heavens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonq 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2008 I've been trying out quite a few cables over the past year but still using Belden 89207. Found quite a few lower end branded I/Cs that are better at some areas but still lose the 89207 in some aspect; at least on my system. It usually lose in the area of soundstage depth and pinpoint imaging which is a little vague. may not be a severe problem on a headphone system. I ordered mine from LHS with Neutrik Profile connectors. Cheap enough to give it a try before spending more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Read the X1 review on Positive Feedback, sounds like a discription of the Goertz Micropurl Silver I'm using; killer details and soundstaging but low treble a touch lean. Email me if someone has the X1 and like to A/B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yotiao 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2008 I have the X-1, it sounds very close to the ks1030 but without the killer micro-details. I am now in love with any acrolink interconnects, I find them to have better price/performance ratio. PM me if you want to try the X-1 for A/B.. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
