Tír Na HiFi

Are you struggling to find the perfect last-minute Christmas present for a loved one? Are you sick of buying jewellery, perfume or clothes for your other half? Do you want to see the eyes of your nearest and dearest light up like the Griswold's house on Christmas morning? This year, why not give the gift of a CABLE UPGRADE! It truly is the gift that keeps on giving...

As the man cave is no longer the man cave, I'm selling a full loom of Kubala-Sosna Fascination cables (interconnect, power cord, speaker cables) and an 8 foot pair of Synergistic Research Element CTS speaker cables.

The K-S cables replaced Nordost Heimdall back when I was looking for something that could combine a detailed sound with a little more meat on the bone. If you find your cables sound a little lean, these might be worth a try. They're not warm, per se, but they have body.

The Synergistic Research Element CTS cables are easily the best I've ever tried, and whatever my initial misgivings about the foo aspect of their design, they were and are the most open, lifelike and natural-sounding speaker cables I've owned. There was a great review in The Absolute Sound that I can't find now, but here's a similarly glowing review in Positive Feedback: https://positive-feedback.com/Issue70/s ... ic_cts.htm
These were very expensive cables to buy new (>€7k), but I've priced them to reflect the fact that they've been reterminated by the boys in Cloney Audio, and I only have the grey Enigma Tuning Bullets, not the silver or black.

Kubala Sosna Fascination Interconnect, 1m, RCA. Excellent condition, still have packaging. Now sold.

Is this the best wording for an ad ever? Lars eat your heart out Simon has the gift of the gab! If these hang around will have to snag a loan in the new year to see if they sound as well as the poet has beautifully outlined!

LOL, thank you Tony. Obviously I could never compete with Lars, I just can't carry off the accent.

If I hadn't bought her cables last year I'd pm you.

Synergistic Research cables are now sold.

Kubala-Sosna cables are still available.

One last bump before I list these elsewhere.

I've knocked a bit off the prices on audio-markt, so I've edited the first post. Apparently these aren't as well-known in Europe as they were in the US...

I still have these, not a nibble on audio-markt so if anyone wants to make me an offer go right ahead. They're just sitting at home doing nothing, which seems a shame. Although admittedly when I do that I'm happy enough...

Hi
I could offer 280 for the Kubala Sosna Fascination Power Cord. I could send the money over by paypal , I'll pay the fees.
Regards
Tony
