23/10/2014 - GutWire Cables now at Mackenzie Hi Fi
The amazing GutWire Cables are now availiable at Mackenzie Hi Fi in Northants. A superb range of cables from Introductory up to the Super High End. Just take a look at Alan Sircoms comments in the Hi Fi+ review extract following: WATCH OUT CRYSTAL CABLES!!!
A fine example of how this works is playing music that
isn’t quite on the ‘audiophile approved’ list. Something like
Nirvana’s epic
Nevermind
album. It’s trashy, thrashy brilliance
of more than 20 years ago now. Gutwire neither polishes it
or makes it screechy; it merely plays it as it should, in the
process making you realise just how good both the power
trio and the overall recording, mix and mastering really are.
The cable lets both the rawness of the band and the polish of
the session shine through, when many others just make it like
noise. And not noise in a good way. Naturally, moving over to
more conventionally better recordings is a treat too, but in a
way those demonstration discs that always sound wonderful
are less of a test than something more gnarly.
I try to block out the price of a product until I’ve got the
performance down on paper first. I’m usually pretty good at
playing ‘Predict-A-Price’ as a result, but I got the Gutwire
cables spectacularly wrong. I thought these were up there
with Crystal Cable Absolute Dream in performance... and
price. There were aspects where AD beat the Gutwire
designs (that high-frequency sparkle is unique to Crystal’s
top cable) but in other respects it was a peer of one of the
best. Outstanding!
