Brulee, thanks. To answer your question, yes I have heard a systme composed of the Marantz SACD player, the new Talons Khorus speakers and Tube Research gear using all FIM IC's and SpkrCbl.. The sound..breathtaking. The IC's and Speaker cable are as capable as the PC's, but be warned...they are very very stiff. That shouldn't be to big of a problem because once you bend them to shape, I really don't see the need to continue moving them. I am starting out with the PC's to my amps and pre because that is where I noticed the largest effect. Best regards, Mike
