i have a pair of 3ft. DIY silver wire IC's that can be sent out for demo.

if you want to try them just sign up here. the first person to sign up can PM me with their mailing address and i'll cover the shipping to you. after a few weeks you can get the mailing address of the next in line and send the IC's on, repeat as necessary. once the list has been exhausted, there will be a giveaway and the last person can send them out to the final recipient.

(how's this Larry, did i do it right?)

Well Scott I would be very interested hearing them. And since I'm so close the shipping will be cheap LOL.

ok Mark, you got em. i'll try to get them out on Saturday, Monday at the latest (yes i did save your addy). i would say to use them for two or three weeks before sending them onto the next person. if no one else signs up you can keep them until someone does.

Good idea Scott!

I'll be interested in the testers opinions of the sound, and whether the IC's pick up or reject interference. A critique on build quality would be nice too. I think Mark W is going to be a tough audience. wink.gif

I'll be tickled to give both a construction and performance Review I have the ideal way to A/B these my TX-9100 tuner has two out puts I can easily match the output by using 2 pair of the same kind of interconnects and then just switch from one source tot he other on the amp.

I'll use my office system SA-9100 and HPM-60's to see what I hear it will be nice to just flip a lever and go from one cable to the other.

i'll be sending a pair that i've been using for the past (almost) two weeks. they will be at least partially broken in, though i think they are pretty much there now.

I think I'll add a Pair of my MINI 8 Coax interconnects and if I have time a pair of the new ones I'm making using a generic version of the WTB RCA's and Canare Quad Star cable. Along to be auditioned by who ever comes along behind me.

Since this is already starting to snowball, would it be better to have all SIMILAR items together in single a package, in order for them to be shipped as ONE, and avoid multiple shipping charges? I don't know.........

Understood. I meant for anyone else that might want to throw some in...... they could send them to you at the same time to consolidate the package. smile.gif

Oh OK I hadn't been thinking that way. What say for the heck of it we do this with 3' to 1 meter interconnects so they might be more directly compared.

If anyone wants to send me a pair to offer up for the comparisons PM me for my address.

I can make a shipping container that can be used as long as needed and hold a number of sets with no problem.

Guys, I´m really beginning to get excited about this idea.

A container, even small, will probably be costly to ship to Portugal and then back to the USA again.

I´ll ask Clint E. if he´s willing to join in and share the costs of shipping the container back to you after we are both done with whatever cables are included. Clint comes often to Portugal, we can easily meet.

My question is, can you get together a few of you guys to ship the container this way?

If so, Larry, please book me up for the next available spot.
