Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $625.00 from High End Audio

Summary:
Discovery interconnects and cables are one of those rare " finds " that you hear about but almost never see. I'd heard about them from a friend but had never seen any ads or read any reviews via the mainstream sources. Discovery is one of those companies who focus their time and energy on their products and not on glossy ads or on getting their producsts " reviewed ". I came across a dealer who sold many pieces(brand names)of gear which I already owned and noted the inclusion of Discovery cables and interconnects amongst the ranks of some pretty fine gear. I spoke with this dealer for some time and he basically let me " demo " cables and interconnects with my system to see if they would compliment my current setup. I've never been happier and I'll never switch from Discovery. The sound my system no produces is simply cleaner and more distinct in terms of the overall clarity. I am hearing sounds on tracks I've listen to for years which I couldn't pick up before upgrading my cables and interconnects. Discovery is one of those audio secrets you know are out there but have not been able to find because they simply don't advertise. Some people see this as a bad thing but I disagree. Ask yourself when was the last time you saw an " ad " for a Ferrari or a Bentley. If you want a distinct change and upgrade in your exhisting system, whether it be an audiophile system or a home theater system, seek out and find a Discovery Dealer. You won't regret your decision and your pocketbook will be even happier. I've been around the interconnect-cable block a few times and for the money, I've not come across any which can match those offered by Discovery.

Strengths:
reproduction of highs and tightness of bass, the price, build quality,

Weaknesses:
for this money, none.

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $600.00 from Discovery Cable

Summary:
A very neutral and balanced cable. The tone reproduction is very " accurate " at every level. Tight bass, clean highs, and solid mids. For the money, I don't think they can be matched. I'll be using mine for years to come and spend the money I was going to use on " fancey " interconnects on other things.

Strengths:
price-value, sound/signal clarity.

Weaknesses:
none that I can see or hear

Give someone the gift of hi-fi. Or make the step yourself. Let us point the way...

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
