I was at Indoor Storm in Durham, NC and checking out Suhrs and Andersons to hear them a few weeks ago (before I got the Thorn)
They were all righty (which is weird, online they have lefties which they keep in the back, you'd THINK someone there would have brought one out for me to check out?!)
It's OK, I'm used to the prejudice us lefties are daily confronted with, like shaking hands, etc (I kid, I'm pretty ambidextrous, golf/bat righty, right dominant soccer foot etc)
Ok, so I see this cable and ask about it. The clerk waxes nostalgic over the thing saying they use them in their studio. So I figure, why not give it a try. I got nice things, why go with a cheap cable.
(I have Elixer cables currently so I figure the difference would be marginal. I only hear the difference with Elixers mostly on acoustic to an amp)
So I get home and it sounds nice. I did an A/B with the Elixer and the Elixer seemed to lack something, well, "sonorous" if you will (pun intended)
Well I did more A/B with my guitars and they ALL sound noticably better. IDK, more mids? I can't put a finger on it, but just... better.
The problem is, this is one friggin expensive cable. I almost did a double take when he said it was over $150, so this is only for the brave, rich, or like me, stupidly curious.
Bottom line, I'm not sold on many things, but this is a very noticeable difference hearing profiles on the Kemper and playing to the CAB or in headphones.
Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone was curious about them. I don't think they are a gimmick and I'm a scientist and LOVE to prove things B.S.!
I did look up cables and there is another brand (forgot the name) people say has better "highs" etc, so I imagine there's a whole world of $150+ cables, where I've only dealt in $50 cables before.
Thats it.
