High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz


In December 2011,I wrote that High Fidelity cables led by cable designer Rick Schultz was putting together a new cable.The cable came to market as CT-1.The CT-1 has FINALLY made it into my system!I had obtained a version of the prototype that Rick had been working on.It blew my previous reference Genesis by Virtual Dynamics.I thought I had finally found my end with this cable.This prototype delivered to my ears "Nirvana".Could I be at the end of my quest for the ultimate sound?
No. I received two pairs of CT-1 to replace my prototypes.They went into the system this past Friday.Unable to dedicate time until Sunday listening,I stole a few moments,ducking away from company with anticipation.My guest could tell even with the music set for"ambiance"something was intriguing and I was in for a treat!
The experience:
First off,CT-1 was very user friendly.Installation was simple;the cable is very nice and light.The female RCA fit beautifully unlike any I had found in other cable.It was secure and reliable.It seemed much thought was dedicated to developing a designer fit to an aesthetically stunning RCA connector.Install entailed a few wiggles to ensure what seemed like a compression fit on my RCA.
It was 2-3 hrs. for the 1st step of break in to be complete.At that point I had something different!Today,although they only have 10-12 hrs. on them,I can`t put into words how much my system has transformed.Believe me,I loved my prototypes.However....there is simply no comparision.
The clarity and sound is so natural.
The soundstage is like nothing I ever heard.Resoulution is breathtaking and inner detail is simply hard to believe possible.
The sound has transended and now it simply does not seem as thought I have speakers.
My system is musicians playing music.
I am told with time they will improve and I trust that as it was revealed with the prototypes.I wanted to share my thoughts with you that now.
Unequivocally,a testament to High Fidelity,as the name declares.
High Fidelity Cables for me,the last word on it,after 12 hours!
Truly Amazing

The problem with this thread is there is no tolerance for anything except gushing about the products. That reeks of bias and limits any value in any case. But there is no law against it so rave on. It is what it is.
The music is on! Life is grand! Happy Holidays to all!!
Welcome to this thread about High Fidelity Cables!!!
@Ddraudt I can't hear all that other stuff. My ears are full of high fidelity music. I listen to the Bennie Green trio tonight. I felt like I was there. Lol

Audiolabyrinth..your're sad..i really feel sorry for you..

Audiolabyrinth is known NOT to have any serious stuff except his only and beloved TL cord and he abuses Audiogon to make himself important (cfr his answers on other threads). I feel sorry for TPG and others who take him seriously in the beginning.

@jazzonthehudson. On audiolabryinth I agree.

Audiolabyrinth...does this mean you are going away from this post...which,after all,is about HF cables.....hopefully so.

Audiolabyrinth, so what does someone who has never bothered to hear the HFCables contribute to a thread obviously focused on these cables. I must admit that I largely ignore your posts as not relevant or of interest.

Yes, I can feel the love and admiration that Audiogon members feel for you. ;^)

I have helped many everyday with that thread

Whatever helps that huge ego let you sleep at night brother. I just wonder if there is anyone out there who actually feels that you have helped them. I know that YOU think you are helping, I just don't know that OTHERS feel that you are helping. That's the amusing part.
I work with a fellow who "thinks" he is helping me all the time. I try to avoid him as much as possible, I find I get more done without his "help".

I'll leave you be now, because Daddy always told me to never get into a battle of wits with an unarmed man. Cheers.
