"GG Rapture Speaker Wire Testimonial

The Rapture speaker cables expand on the Rapture pantheon. .. Zeus! Odin! Power and poetry. Magic and magnificence.

 

The most notable is the ease of control of the full spectrum of sound and the insane detail conveyed . Nuances of all instruments and vocals are spectacularly displayed: the separation of voices in close harmony and proximity, the last second bending of a note as it glides into darkness on a long decay, the resonance of string not directly struck on acoustic guitars are all more that just apparent....they were meant to be there and now they're are , as they always were, but somehow never heard before. You can't know what isn’t there, but then you only miss your water when it's gone. Addictive is what these cables are.

 

Bass is organic and full with out being overemphasized or boomy. Acoustic bass and bowed instruments are melt your heart and sit in your grandfather's lap comfy, raw and caressing. However it was played is how it is heard. The highs are extended and lively, but not aggressive or grating. And the midrange, OH, the midrange. Let's just say I don't miss my tube preamplifier any more.....ahhhhhhhh.

 

After they had broken in, I sat to down to listen. But, I kept jumping out of my chair and danced around all footloose and gangly now almost diagnosable echolalis "no way, no way, you must be jivin' " Repeated in the perfect rhythm and pace from the Raptures.

 

Everything the interconnects offered and somehow more. Pristine, defined full sized and rounded images themselves. The stage is expanded side to side, but much deeper all the nuances already so real in sonic reproduction it's almost surreal. Transportations available. Seats on the excursion might be expensive, but worth the price since the ticket is for endless admissions and journey begins again every time you find a moment to drop into your seat and turn it on.
