Submitted By: Ian Christie on 27/04/2008 I am not one to write reviews, but I feel I must write in about this product to warn those considering buying this product. It will make you believe the phrase "cheapest upgrade you can buy".
Years ago , I bought a little all-in-one Sony for the kitchen. Usual setup with usual supplied speaker cable. Whilst ordering from this site for interconnects and speaker cable for a home cinema I am building in the garden, I suddenly, for no reason, bought 5m of this stuff for the small Sony. When it arrived, I found the cable is deceptively thick, but I had luckily also bought pin plugs for both ends. (btw, I tried soldering these in and found it impossible. Probably my lack of soldering skills, though). Not a good bend radius either.
Once manipulated in, I turned the unit on. I can only describe it as being "blown away". For a start, the unit was pumping out an extra 3db (from where I know not), and the FM radio sounded like it was Sky delivered. The iPod sounded like a CD, the range somehow being increased with punchy bass and clear treble. Fantastic. Made my £100 Sony sound like my Denon in the sitting room. No kidding. I honestly thought my ears wouldnt notice, after the years spent in clubs, but I couldnt have been proved more wrong. My regret is that I found this cable when I was ordering for the cinema. There is no way I could (or would) spend this cash on 80m of this, but I will always know that I 'settled' instead of buying the QED Silver Micro.
If you have the green, log onto this site and buy some. You wont be disappointed.
