Thanks Oscar. I may have to take a run at them. Really like the power cords, and see also they have a USB cable-not in 5M which I require but I have a message in to the Ali Seller on that.
Your description of the IC's mirrors my experience with the power cords. They just have a very natural, correct sound about them.
Happy holidays.

Blake, you're more than welcome.
As mentioned there simply isn't much in audio one can get for said prices, unless of course we're talking old Rat Shack or Monster Cables type of IC's from the mid 80s. Ive always been viewed by plenty of my friends | associates as the guinea pig type that was open-minded enough to explore cabling or isolation footers at various prices, and report my findings by to them, here I'm referring to guys with different types of systems ranging from $20.000-$90.000 whom were all willing to trust my ears on said matters, if nothing else I'd say they've held true to the cause so far..., as I see it either something offers a sense of musicality | correctness | honestly about how it reproduces sound, or it doesn't?, of which I'll only come here to offer things of which I honestly believe in, as a means of saying once again " higher cost items can sound extremely good, yet at a much greater investment on one's end ".
Put when one has taken the time to listen very very closely as I've to various brands or makes of cables as I've since 2004, borrowing more than my share from once again the Cable Company | deep pocketed friends, one begins to sense a certain pattern in how some are merely more musically correct, as opposed to impressing one with a type of signature which merely spotlights a typical HiFi sound if you will..., where one hears more of the attributes of their systems components, yet are absorbed in the essence of the notes themselves.
Balance to me has become the most essential part of this journey in my latter years, as both experience | wisdom has to be the main goal in achieving a sense of enlightenment | sonic bliss where one is no longer a victim of temptation | learns to leave well enough at just that, and enjoy listening to music, as opposed to simply analyzing one's gear in hopes of having assembled the right pieces, or better yet, learning one's on sound which engages every fiber in their very core ( soul ) to the point, one can say aloud " I'm done ", now bring on more music, as one can never have enough new ( to them ) music, which again to me, is the logical reason we're all willing to invest in the hardware as a means of truthfully hearing it as intended, in our bones that is.
Enjoy Life | after all it's the final frontier, eh! | anything otherwise is a waste of time | energy | breath | effort. At the end of the day, whom ears should I trust more than my own, and as I tend to gauge said emotions from a place of balance | correctness | truthfulness | spiritually connected type of feel, in which in my world matters more than buying into overly priced cables or cords based upon mere written words, it's one willingness to explore the unknown possibilities which matters most, biases and ignorance be damned.
For octogenarians populating the forum? The subject of cables is way past your age guys. But since you can't lift your amps and preamps anymore cable is the only thing in the audio chain you can manage to change. Good fortunes in New Year with that entertainment and of course Merry Christmas!
Actually it's someone's home that owns a pair of these speakers, as I've long noticed years ago that some viewers like exploring audio prone as they call it, as I usually read many of the eZines from Poland I've seen some very interesting systems, of which I feel are worth posting alongside my scripts just for the sake of adding flavor to them, more visual than anything else, but as it seems many have given me positive responses as to dropping them, I've never felt the need not to.
As I stand 6'6" tall, and weigh like 280lbs, be assured I'm able to lift upwards of 300lbs without breaking a sweat, yet of late ( since 2009 I'd say ) I've grown much more fond of integrated amps more so than said amps used to impress visitors by weighing anything over 60lbs, of which I'd lift with one hand. Yet cables, especially the more flexible designs do indeed make aging a better option and dressing them properly and leaving them be..., as I usually don't touch them unless the mood strikes me within 1-2 years, if even then?. I'm more into trying or owning various types of cables as well as isolation footers ( brass | stainless steel | aluminum | ebony - sandalwood- rosewood as each offers a different presentation to the components themselves ) of which fine tuning the signature of any given component without feeling the desire to change them out just for the sake of following lost souls which can be seen doing this every other month or two, without actually having given these items time to fully break in, nor understand their individual sounds, just doesn't do it for me, but pride of ownership in having something which brings about a sense of long term satisfaction tends to draw my attention more as someone whom has figured it out, and know their sound versus trying to chase an illusion of the absolute sound, which far exceeds what many of us are willing to spend.
In my world owning a system valued at around $25.000 suits my needs just fine.
Good fortunes | Happier Seasons before us all in the days in which the Creator grants us, as nothing shouod be viewed as a given, so I tend to enjoy life more and more with each | every weakening day, where I wake upon the right side of the dirt.
