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

First day of HF URR WGPC. First I had had a lot of things unplugged while my High Fidelity Power conditioner was being upgraded and I had to move 20 or 30 items to put it back in. At first the "coldness" of new stuff was their pressing on my head, but after the afternoon of replacing tweaks and 27 hours of play time I am starting to hear Magic again. I did hear some details I haven't heard before and it was producing goose bumps ofter one day. (The speed of recovery was helped by the fact that many magnetic parts have been in the system for quite a while. A first test would take a lot longer.) I still have much more to do and time will improve the sound further, but I'm thrilled by the upgrade already!!.
More updates to come! ;-) D
FYI I talk or email several friends a day excited about High Fidelity cables.
I write hear for them and my friends on this thread. I check this thread to hear what they have to add. I sift the pebbles from the grain to make it palatable.

Ddraudt, I think the trolls bother you too much. Were you to respect them then they might matter.

Calvinj, Hello Friend. I'm always glad to see a post from you.
Although I personally think skipping the Trollposts is the best choice, I enjoy you words. I think your plain truth eludes the pebble brains but I agree with you. Keep Enjoying the Music! It's what it is all about. D

"Were you to respect them then they might matter.

Wouldn't want anything like respect to become a factor now would we. :^)
