Coincident Cables Experiences? Any Good?

I thought Israel Blume was going to have both new upgraded IC and speaker cables at CES??? What's the scoop on new IC??? Please explain. Thanks from happy owner of Coincident speaker cable.

Coincident attempted to design an improved version of the IC Interconnect, and ran into technical problems (exactly what, I do not know). The upgraded or new IC cable (it was supposed to sell at a higher price than the original IC) will probably not be released. This is a shame. A cable that improved on the first IC --and still was half-reasonably priced--would be very, very welcome.

The new reference speaker cable,The Total Reference Series,was demoed at the recent CES.Coincident has been shipping it for over 6 weeks.

As for a new upscale version of our current interconnect, we have not been able to substantively improve upon the CST IC.We will not release a more expensive version of our interconnect until such time as we confidently feel it represents, as does our Total Reference Series speaker cable,a sonic breakthrough.

Now we know about the current status of development of the IC cable from its designer himself. I thank you for your commitment to high end audio Mr. Blume. You belong to the very small minority of designers who asks where he ought to apply his talents, who applies them where he is convinced he needs to, and who abstains on every occasion that does not meet his own standards.

One more thing to mention is how they get better and better.I have not done any upgrades in the last month or so yet the sound keeps getting better.Israel had mentioned that to get them full blown it would take 500 hours.He is so right.I lsiten about 2 hours a day which requires about 250 days about 8 months.I have had them since july and they are right on time.This cable is like a fine wine it takes its time to mature but is sure worth the wait.1 Cable month = 1 Wine year.
