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

Himiguel, Thanks for the invite. I'd love to have Tripoint Emperor to play with. is that like a $40K grounding system?
You should have fun at Norms, he has an excellent system.
Cheers Defrost
When I hear my DeFrost working it has some crackling and popping would it be less noisy if it were grounded 40k like.

I have heard many good things about the tripoint Emperor from audiocrack that owns the Tara Labs Grandmaster Evolution cables through out his system, including the Grandmaster power cords, the emperor is a sensational grounding point for any given system!
Yes the Tripoint Emperor is sure to be amazing!! I was wrong about the guess on price it is actually $70,000. and a 6 month waiting period. Order yours today!! The Signature is $14000, Signature SE $21500 right now
(April price increase). I've heard these Tripoints do amazing things.
It's fun to look at the systems of folks who could afford the Emperor.
Million dollar systems it may be actual Emperors. The reviews I read have Glowing reports of amazement. I was told that the Tripoint systems sound better if you plug it into a High Fidelity UR magnetic power conditioner ($16,900) and even better adding Tripoints' best grounding cables ($5k to $10K each depending on length). Interesting. D - I want some!

Audiolabyrinth, yes, I would love to hear Audiocrack's response were he to hear his system with HighFidelity cables.
