Did some of you ever tried the Siltech HF9 ???


I am looking for a new digital interconnect (transport to dac) and was wondering if any of you ever compared it to the much acclaimed Acoustic Zen MC2 or something ever better but not at rocket price.

I had both cables. Before I bought the MC2 I had heard people and magazine raved about it. After I got it, I was disappointed. Compared to HF9, not even close. MC2 was dry and metallic sounding while the HF9 is rich, focus, warm and very extended at the extremes. I highly recommend the HF9.
I had the HF9, which is an excellent cable. The LAT International IC-20, however, is as good, but much cheaper. I ended up with keeping the LAT, and sold the Siltech. Only thing is, LAT cables have a very long burn-in.
very detail digital cable, you will enjoy it right after you plug into the transport and DAC. Transparent and good separation, focus, sense of air, live presentation.
