HiDiamond Speaker Cables


Does anyone have experience with the upper end of HiDiamond speakers cables? I'm looking into the HD 7 or HD 8. After recently becomming a believer of their power cables I'm thinking of taking a plunge to their speaker cables to match.

I would love to try these. Not in the budget at the moment, and I'm really happy with the Zu Ibis currently in the system. I just have trouble imagining things sounding better than it does now, I am really incredibly happy with the sound. But the changes I experienced with the HD ICs and Digital were so incredibly profound it makes me wonder.

The two things "missing" are a tad of detail and a bit of bass tightness.

I realized the bass thing when swapping in a friend's DAC recently, the bass went a bit lower and tightened up a bit, but at the expense of organic-ness elsewhere (so I wouldn't trade DACs out as overall I liked mine a lot better). So I don't think speaker cables will help with that piece. Maybe with the detail/resolution though.
I'd say my ic's noticeably hit their stride at around 400 hours. Seems like a lot but one day I turned on my system and sort of went, "ahhhhh". I feel like they hit a plateau somewhere between 100-200 hours then Bam! at about 400.
