Sonically? Everything! Smooth, sweet and detailed sound with great soundstage. Very smooth WBT locking RCA terminals and extremely flexible cable making installation a breeze. Tech support. Something unheard of at Harmonic Technology.

White gloves were missing. Just an observation - not a complaint.

The Silver Audio Silver Bullets 4.0 interconnect is a dream come true (i.e no more cable shopping)! It is a fantastic cable in all respects. I started to get into the high end interconnect cables, or at least I thought I was, by first buying the Harmonic Technology Truth-Link. What a disaster that was. It was a very dull sounding cable and was inferior, in most ways, to the $30 Ultralink Discovery interconnect cable that I was previously using. After 4 weeks of burn-in and with the sound actually getting duller, it was returned with restocking charges imposed. Only way to make money from this cable, I guess. Next move was the Homegrown Audio Silver Lace interconnect. It was the complete opposite of the Harmonic Technology Truth-Link cable, which was a good thing. Unfortunately, it was too much of a good thing. The high frequencies were a bit too bright and the upper midrange was fairly forward. A decent cable but fatiguing to listen to for any length of time. My next (and final) stop was the Silver Bullets 4.0. When it was first plugged in, without any burn-in, the sound was dramatically changed for the better. The whole frequency spectrum was presented in a very neutral, pleasing way. The bass was deep yet tight. The midrange was second to none - very realistic. Acoustic guitars and pianos were reproduced beautifully and tonally accurate. The treble was sweetly extended with no fatigue whatsoever. Soundstage was expansive and instruments very focused. For a silver cable, it was not bright at all and was definitely not dull sounding either. The amount of warmth was just right for extended listening. All of the above was my first impression. I couldn't imagine this cable getting any better. Well after a number of hours of burn-in, the treble improved by being slightly more detailed. I'm in complete bliss now. Technical assistance was plentiful with Max Kreifeldt, of Silver Audio, being extremely helpful. E-mails were answered within a day and were done so in a very honest, courteous and professional way. I don't have enough praises for this cable or Silver Audio! A huge bargain at this or at twice it's asking price. Highly recommended.

Very neutral presentation, incredible soundstage, good extension on highs without fatique and bass is just right and fianlly the lightweight and flexibility of the cable.

None so far...

Silver Bullets are the best interconnect cables I have tried so far! I really do disagree with the 2 reviewers here below (sorry guys.) These cables are simply very neutral and present the music with clarity not present in any cables in this price range. No need really to elaborate further, because most reviewers before me have covered it already.

Soundstaging was good, but not the best i have heard

I started my quest for silver cables with the Silver Bullet 4.0's. I was very pleased with them, but as all audio quests are (nearly never ending) I couldn’t stop after my first shot. Turns out I did pretty good on my first try. Because my next 2 tries weren't nearly as satisfying. I tried the Kimber KCAG, based on Kimber’s reputationa and the oft used but silly philosophy, more expensive is better, right? Well Wrong. They were not nearly as good as the Silver Audio’s and twice as expensive. Next was the slightly less expensive ($399 new versus $460 for KCAG) Harmonic Tech Pro Silways. They were better than the KCAG’s but slightly less refined than the Silver Audios, so I gave those to my brother-in-law ( he likes them by the way). I figured I went more expensive, so lets try less. I decided to try Pure Silver Sound’s Quartets. Well, here is for cheaper is better. They had all the transparency the Silver Bullets had, but with an added clarity to the bass and even better sound staging. Needless to say I settled on the Quartets for over all sound and value ($179 vs. $225) The Silver bullets are a very good ineterconnect and should definitely be tried in your system before many others. But for me, I am an imaging freak and the better soundstage of the Quartets sold me.

Great value. This cable does not get in the way, the sound opens and fills the room like it is supposed to. And, it puts a smile on your face.

Convincing the wife that the 4.0s are only slightly more expensive than Radio Shack cables so I can purchase a second pair.

I auditioned 5 different cables before trying the Silver Bullets 4.0's. The cables auditioned were Solar Wind, PBJ, Hero, Silver Streak and Rhapsody II. Most made an improvement over my existing cable. The one exception was the PBJ, the soundstage went absolutely flat. I have a good friend who let me borrow cable from his second home, the neighborhood Hi Fi store. As I began this odyssey, I realized for myself, cables do make a difference. Each cable imparted a slightly different character to the sound, some good and some not. Research had also led me to investigate the offerings from Silver Audio. A phone call was made and in a few days the Silver Bullets 4.0's arrived. They looked beautiful with the dark sheath and bright silver WBT connectors, but how would they sound? I connected them with the white cotton gloves that came with the cables, put a favorite CD in the Rotel and my jaw hit the floor. Detail, transparency and a 3D soundstage were now flowing out of my Tannoy's. These cables opened my system like I thought wasn't possible. The dynamic range was extended with better lows and highs I had not heard before. After some 50 hours of burn-in time, count me among those that think Silver Audio has a great cable in the 4.0's. Enjoy the music.

Very neutral and acurate sounding interconnect.

None.

To make my story short, I really loved these silver bullet 4.0 but I ended up getting 2 pairs of Hyacinth (their new line of interconnect), of course, recommended by Max (the genius). Believe me, audition it and you'll end up buying it. You'll hear more air on every instrument in every recording. 5 star is not enough to rate these interconnect, I'll give it a MAX. it's very well done.

PS.. I told Max that the price of his cables are too cheap to compare to other brands which sells for ridiculously higher prices and can't even deliver the reality of the music.

I have had 1m of DLin Audio Silver Bullet 4.0s in my system (between my Sonic Frontiers Line-2 and Pass Aleph 3) for two weeks. I am pleased to report that sonic improvements were evident immediately. They were not dramatic, but pervasive. The most striking thing about the sound is its naturalness. Everything sounds like it does in real life. This is no small accomplishment. And, as others have asserted, the air between, and around, instruments and vocalists, is "there". I am most impressed that a product at this price can make these kinds of differences right away. The fact that the improvements are being caused by an interconnect is amazing. I give this product five stars+. I am looking forward to inserting the balanced 6.0s between my Line-2 and SFCD-1.

All I can say after 4 months of use! Get it!

Coming from a bright system before the silver's I though and was ready to sell my equipment.

A audio Freak friend from California who used the product recommended I give them a try for he had the same problems.

System consists of: Sonic Frontiers Transport, EAD 9000 II d/a -Sonic Line 1, Mccormack DNA 225, Vienna Acoustics Mozart using Nirvana SX speaker cables.

Interconnects used then was Siltech and Cardas.

Now using the Silver 4.0's ! more transparent, warmer and fuller base, detailed and highs not as shriekingly painful and fatiquing.

Great stuff for less money than before. Now have to sell all Interconnects to get another 4.0's or hyacinth.

Warm highs. Deeper/louder bass. Superb midrange.

Well, I have finally broken in my SB 4.0's. I let these things run for about 60 hours (over a 3 day period) and the sound is truly wonderful. Prior to this I was using ixos and acoustic research cables. The improvement on my system was subtle but noticeable. Without any break-in, the bass was noticeably deeper, with more punch. Although they sounded bright prior to break-in, they are now very warm, without any loss in details.

It's a wonderful IC. What other reviewers said is pretty much how I feel. This is the first time my system exhibits "being there" or "in the same room" phenomenon. Also I noticed that with other ICs I have the tendency to turn up the volume to try to hype up weaker part of sonic spectrum. Not any more! This cable has so much details and so balanced that I do not have to turn up the volume to enjoy music any more. eAudioNet assists me greatly to discover this wonderful IC. It is used between MSB DAC and my HK Pre.

I took a chance and ordered these cables thru the internet and I have no regrets! I just don't know why so many audiophiles living in the North America with internet access are not willing to take advantage of this bargain interconnect. With the extra cost of postage, customs charges and lousy exchange rates, these cables do become a bit pricy in my counrtry, but at the price Max Kreifeldt is offering them in the US, it must be heard by those who are interested in upgrading their interconnects to brands like Van der Hul, Transparents, Kimber etc.
The service DLin offers is exceptional, with the owner, Max Kreifeldt, willing to talk to you directly via Email/Fax/Phone to give you advice about his cables. If he feels his cables won't be synergistic with your system, he'll even caution you honestly about purchasing his products. This is not something you see everyday with the big-brand cables guys!!

Okay, so what do the SilverBullet 4s offer?

Exceptionally addictive highs & mids. Not bright, not too lively or forward, but just right. The only word I can use to describe the treble and midrange is *sweet!* and they will envelope you in a spacious, neutral and grain-free veil that is truly unreal! These cables also add a great deal of ambience & space to the music so that more detail is heard across the spectrum. The bass is tight and fast giving pace and rythym to the music. The deeper bass doesn't go as loud as some of the other cables, but there is enough of it to make you satisfied of its presence. This however, should not detract from the fine overall presentation of the SilverBullet 4s that makes it so enjoyable to audition. The music just sounds less hifi and more realistic and believable with these cables.

Try them out at your own peril!
