Thorsten - Which recipe did you make? There's the single 89259 version, twisted 89259 version and then the 89259/89248 twisted version.Sean H

Not to start a flame war or anything, but if you weren't surprised then perhaps you're clinging to preconceived notions.Then again lots of folks like audioquest but I aint one of them.

Did you mean to reply to a post from Thorsten?? I'm confused at what I said that promted a response like this??Sean H
my bad, dude.I can be a raving loony sometimes.
Hi,My original comparison was just plain 89259 with high quality RCA Plugs. I later made some other variants, including a twisted pair using only solid core belden sounded better as the mixed one, but still, non of the stuff I made based on Jon's recipies really convinced me in my system as being worth the effort, compared to some other options (like DIY XLO). Yet, as remarked, in other system the result may vary.

We'd all like an edge up, and if the difference is that large and the costs reasonable or better, share it with us.Enjoy,

I think this is the one that Thorsten prefers or at least one of them. I don't know what his latest iterations are. You might want to check the other cables at the site. But you will see that they are his own design. It would seem like everyone else with their own design, like Chris, Thorsten, and Jon, there is definitely a designer bias to their own designs. Not to take anything away from them, this is only natural and human.
