Got mine yesterday. Replaces my Genesis. Definately more organic,less distortion therefor more detail/transparency. They don't seem to have the body/thickness of sound that the Genesis served up, but I think this will come to some degree with break-in. I have Exodus power cords and speaker wire running with the system.
I have been running the Ultra Clear IC on my system for about a week. I use them between an APL3910 and ARC ref1 pre. It replaced VD Master LE XLR cables. I can say right off that there was significant improvement in all areas that matter. Resolution, bottom bass, pace and layering of instrument and the utter naturalness of vocals. I currently have an ARC Vt130se amp and I would say the effect of the Ultra clear IC on my system was equivalent to an amp upgrade. My speakers are Wilson Sophia II. My system sounded good before, but I can honestly say the enjoyment factor increased by several magnitudes. Music is simply more musical and involving. And all this from a cable???
A minor over sight with the Ultra-Clear interconnects; due to the larger diameter of the connector technology I cannot use them with two of my older FM tuners, or a passive preamp because the RCA female on the back of the passive preamp and tuners are to close together. The over sized connector will not fit next to each other.
Larry,
I had a similar experience with my vintage H/K tuner. I sent it to a modder who replaced the older RCA inputs with current ones spaced apart to fit the larger barreled interconnects. You can probably DIY this yourself fairly easily and cheaply, especially if the interconnects are worth doing it for. Please keep us posted on the Ultraclear progress in your system.
