Yep, the CT-1 interconnects are really unbelievable, it's like listening to the master recording, nothing between the source and speakers.
I'm playing older recordings that sound entirely musical, this never happened in all my years of listening. |
Al and Bear, I'm using two pairs and one as a digital cable between the trans and dac, Rick is off the charts with these. |
When a big name gets a listen, they'll most likely get the full recognition they deserve, just a matter of time. |
I have the CT-1's, in what specific way(s) are the E series better? |
That tells me they are very well balanced across the spectrum when everything gets better, just passing the signal even more clean and quiet, wanted to hear some feedback, thanks. |
Being one of the first customers of the CT-1's, I think Rick's cables are already changing the world, I'm trying to imagine what the enhanced or ultimate interconnects will do to me, not to mention his speaker cables! |
Rick's new company is going to take off like a rocket ship.
I remember saying cables don't make much of a difference, ya right! |
Calloway, congratulations on your acquisition of the finest sounding cables on the planet, I know you must be listening in heaven. |
Al, I can't believe we're suffering(!) but I called Calloway last night and my thoughts were confirmed to what he's hearing, I guess it's time to start $aving, sheesh...............
I hope Rick doesn't come up with a "Super Ultra" enough is enough already! |

Charles, You won't be sorry, these cables border on insanely real. |
Tbg, Everyone I spoke to using these cables is universal, the best word to describe is "real"! |
The "regular" CT-1s are equal to/better than Nordost Odins, at 1/10th the cost, so they still hold a very respective position regardless of the CT-E's or Ultras, quite an amazing testament to Rick's design. |
I borrowed Odins for a couple weeks from a good friend, the results in my system spoke for themselves. |
A CT1-E Digital has now been in my system for 3 weeks and the audible results are stellar.
Every single note from front to back is completely fleshed out and the back drop between the notes is completely, utterly QUIET.
All my CD's sound like remasters and take on their individual recording characteristics like an LP.
The rest of the experience has to be heard to be believed, it's that good. |
Hi Al,
If I were to put things in a %, I'd have to say approx. 30% overall improvement with the CT1-E's, nothing in particular mind you, the WHOLE spectrum is completely better, more of everything you already have with the original CT-1's (which are already killer)
Of course, this is my rig, room, ears, but Rick's cables seem to wrought the same benefits in various systems for end users. |
Tbg, that's correct, listening is believing. |
Thanks Calloway, here's a link to the review. |
I had a golden ear friend that's real picky come over to hear the CT-1E's in my system, during the 2 hour audition he didn't say a word, he left shaking his head in disbelief and told everyone else!
I'll probably do the same hearing the Ultimates, unbelievable. |
Here's something to check out. |

Audiolabyrinth, you're welcome too.
Rick put the old "wire is just wire" cliché to sleep, it was the "hiding bottleneck" |
|
It's something after my post back on 4-25-12 how this sky-rocketed to 30 pages and over 1500 posts.
The thing that struck me was how they work so well in almost every different system application.
I remember when Rick made the big move to Texas to start this new adventure in magnetics.
My first thought was it would be nearly impossible and take forever to prove any superiority in cable land.
Now after 2 short years he emerged as top dog contender, that takes courage and ingenuity.
Go High Fidelity :>)
|
Ddraudt, if Rick's new amp proves to be a sonic knockout, we'll really be in for a huge ear treat, can't wait to hear more on this. |
Thanks Pete, things are good with Mad Scientist digital rca, HF CT-2 inters and Western Electric 14ga solid core speaker.
The CT-2's and MC 0.5's been here 3 days, I might try a Pro much later.
|
7 years later to the cable game, two pair CT-2 rca's and a pair of MC 0.5s added, imaging excellent and very liquid sound, nice.
I noticed some folks changing from High Fidelity to Teo and now to Cerious, combining interconnects and speaker cables?
|
Pete, I caved in a little, CT-1 UR will be here for demo in place of WE. |
Just installed, I’m refraining from being a fan-boy or kicking an anthill, some of these forums become a battlefield. |
