Wel cables and IC's installed!
Installation went without a hitch. The dealer had the head installer do it. This is a huge store and he is very skilled. He said I had the best sounding system he'd ever heard. He got so mesmerized he left his coat on the floor and had to come back and get it. I'll soon be posting pics. Initially, all I can say is WOW! Even a cursory listen, these cables and IC's sound awesome. And they are the perfect length. I did my homework well.:yes:

Congratulations with your new cables and great sound , happy listening. :)
|
That's great! Until recently I never seriously considered Audioquest cables, but thanks to a fellow audiophile they have become the foundation of my system. I look forward to reading your thoughts on the WEL cables.
|
Yes I didn’t consider Audioquest until I accidentally demod the oak speaker wire then got a great deal on wel then more wel then more wel and the rest is history for me and my system.
|
Congratulations!
I'm looking forward to reading your impressions as you get more listening time with them in the system. |

Pictures. 4th pic shows completed installation. Pics 5-7 show sources, preamps etc. I will post more extensive listening impressions at a later time. I just haven't had the time. I do want to say now that a veil has been lifted from over my system. The whole musical picture is like looking through a window that has been washed. I don't hear any harshness at all. At the same time there has been a great increase in clarity/transparency. So far I am very pleased. Also the quality of the cables is incredible. They are beautiful. Their workmanship is right up there with my Alexx. Although they were/are extremely expensive they were easy to work with. I was very concerned about many things and laid awake at night some worrying about things like are they too stiff to make the curves? What if I get hum? What if they don't fit my equipment. Is this a monumental waste of money? Etc. But now that they are in I'm very pleased so far and the cost is receding in my memory.

Good luck Charles
Wonderful system. I hope someone can tell us why photos taken right side up get downloaded to the site sideways. This happens to me on some, but not all, pictures whenever I try to post them here. |

The beauty about the WEL is that the sound is smoother, the spacing between images are better, and the imaging is more solid and localizeable.
The only thing I might question is bass reproduction, but that's a minor quibble if at all. |
