Having bought both an iFi Audio USB Power and iFi Audio iDAC after reviewing them a little while ago I was asked by Vincent Luke of iFi Audio and also Abbingdon Music Research (AMR) if I would like to review their new – highly anticipated USB cable – I didn’t have to think about it […]
In this day and age of USB driven DAC’s and computers being used as digital music transports its nice to see a company still prepared to develop a new coaxial digital cable for traditional – I will resist saying legacy – SPDIF digital data transfer (1) Despite the growing popularity of computers as sources of […]
Firstly I owe Jonas Harrow and Rick Schultz of High Fidelity Cables an apology re the lateness of this review but it is well known by now – I think – that I suffered a personal tragedy in November last year that mean’t I didn’t do any reviewing as such and its only recently that […]

When the opportunity arose to formally review the Mark Grant G1000HD (High Definition) interconnect cables, I jumped at the chance but I was also keenly aware of a great deal of the opinion that surrounds these cables both on-line and recently in print. Now a good audio reviewer should have both an open mind and […]
