FYI... According to their website it's all copper, PCCC with 9AWG per leg. At this price level in cables you're not paying for raw materials used, but rather for the sound quality and time spent in research and design to achieve it.

I use DH Labs cables and IC's exclusively. When I bought them 15+ years ago the prices were quite reasonable to me at the time.
Speaker cables: 4 x 3' lengths of Q-10 Signature
IC's: most are 3' lengths of Air Matrix w/1 x 20' pair of BL-1 with XLR connectors.

I've owned D.H. Labs Air Matrix cables. Certainly amongst the best high value cables..

I had a change with my digital cables (surprise, surprise): I picked up the The Morrow Audio DIG3 Digital Cable with the Pure Harmony RCA’s (single cable). So far it’s pretty nice, and expect it to be even sweeter with more break-in forthcoming. I sold both USB Cables(Wireworld Starlight Platinum 7 USB, Black Cat Silverstar USB), for non-use, going strictly via CD transport...I had to try the USB deal...

It's currently on sale from the manufacturer at 35% off the $50K retail... now $32,500 plus shipping. Looks quite impressive, will be interested in your thoughts once its connected and run-in. Good listening!

Audio Quest Rocket 88 speaker cables, MacKenzie XLR intertconnects, on Mike's recommendation. No complaints. They sound great to me.

given the creator has real sience and knowledge, what do you think is more time consuming:
a product where he can just do what he knows (topmodel), or where he has to design the best out of wordls with another complication of limited price.
To a big extend cable cost because people pay and it took its evolution....others jump in to make cash.....and basicly these days as a topmanufactor you really do well to have at least the topline to be insane in price to get attention.
not saying cables doesnt matter at all.
however, me as the new nr1 designer, the price for every single cable in my topline would go beyond 100k, exception is the speaker cable for just around 80k as a surprise. and to display my deeper understanding of the whole.

Nice to see they use Furutech products. Hard to imagine the $32,500 (on sale NOW!) couldn't be better spent elsewhere in the system? Lastly, what about the MILES of horrible cable that leads to hour homes???

Your amps and gear don't see those miles of cables leading to your home. They do see that 6' inn front of your gear.

that would be a neat trick. no more bills from the power company.
but what actually counts is from that big transformer down the street to your equipment.
the last 6 feet might act as an interference antenna thou.
