for the Diamondback

This cable is affordable ($150), available in many lengths and with RCA or XLR connectors, and it sounds great! It 'disappear', doesn't create distortion or grain, doesn't modify the soundstage, doesn't attenuate the extreme-high nor extreme-low frequencies like so many other interconnects.

I cannot hear the diffeence with the King Cobra ($225), despite the price difference.
Very user-friendly.
