Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good?

So no opinions on GG power cords? It's strange that so many folks here have the ICs yet no power cords....

Antonkk,I have the Rapture AC Cords.
Members budburma and sergs also have the Rapture power cords.I've posted my findings and I believe budburma posted his.Not everyone likes to post

I will be sending my Rapture IC to a 'Gon member that has system wired with the Tera Labs Zero.

He will report back to me his findings when he has A/B the two cables.

Glory,that sounds interesting!!!
A $15,000 interconnect against a $2k interconnect.
If the Gabriel wins out you will probably never hear back from the guy as he'll most likely end it right there and then.
If I spent $15k it would be pretty hard not to go with the Tara.When I first heard the Gabriel cable I had the Stealth Indra and I did not want to admit what I heard.
Needless to say "Hello Gabriels"

I think if you own $15k ICs, there has to be a predetermined level of bias that would affect the objectivity of this comparison. Here's a real case for a blind test.

Who would want to admit that their $15k ICs sound the same as a pair of $2K ICs or worse, not as good? And, even if the $15k ICs sounded marginally better how could you rationalize a $13k price difference? I don't usually make value judgements or criticize others choices but isn't $15K for a pair of ICs bordering on obscene? How good can they be?

No ones claiming the Gabriels are the absolutely "best" ICs out there but they are damn good for the money!
