Morningstar Blues Interconnects (one pair)
About a month ago I received a PM from Bill asking if I'd like to listen to some interconnects that he's currently representing.
He mentioned an engineering buddy built them for his system, and wanted to know what I thought of the cables.
So....I said ..."yeah,why not". Just send one pair of IC's....which I'll set up between an amp and a Cd player.
I've found...simplest way for ME to hear what a cable would "sound like" is to do it this way...YMMV.
His note stated..."They are on the warm side of neutral with a lovely analog presentation".
And...I'd agree.
1st.....build quality is very good for a cable in this price range. Their light in weight...and they look good.
There are directional arrows on them....and the RCA plugs fit well.
2nd. ...Sound wise...very good bass and mids...with a recessed treble. A bit organic...mellow...smooth.
3rd....Sometimes...I think of cables as "tone controls"...these might be one of those times. If your system sounds a bit bright....these will tone it down...a bit.
You'll still "hear it all"...but they will smooth it out for you...and you won't "run for cover"....
I think it's a fine product to offer....and well priced. Speaking of price, this is what Bill wrote...
I'm selling them for $150 meter pair,$30 per foot after the first meter.RCA's
Balanced are $320 per meter pair,$60 per foot after the first meter,XLR's
In combination with the Digital cable,4 foot, $100, RCA,75ohm or
Digital AES/EBU 110ohm XLR 4 foot $240.
So...if your seeking something in what I'd call a reasonable budget price...I'd check them out....best way to know if they will work for you...and they have a 30 day money back guarantee.
