Even Grover offers a 60 day money back guarantee trial period if asked.

I think all of the major online dealers (ED, MD, AS, etc.) have a 30 day no questions asked return policy also.

Cable makers don't present real info about the how or why of it all.

To ensure you get your money's worth...do only sighted listening!

I'm not sure what info you are looking for, that's all the info I have. This cable is not on his website yet either so that won't help you. One new tidbit I did glean from Michael is this cable also has a flat copper conductor as well as the silver and carbon. Does that help?

I'm still formulating my thoughts on the cable, I only just received it and I've been burning it in since then. Once I have my impressions together (besides my positive initial impression), I'll follow-up.

Here's one more to really stir the pot up:

Try the power cord shootout on a relatively high powered
amplifier instead of a headphone amp. Curious to see what
you come up with!

Good to see a manufacturer here. Welcome to the forum; I hope we don't frighten you away.

I'm probably in a bit over my head here, but does anybody have a specific recommendation for Rotel equipment? If anybody is using a PC that is working particularly well with the RCD-1072, I'd like to know about it.
