I agree, $400 is a boutique price, and I would not want to pay that much for a cable unless it was cooking/preparing nourishment for me as welI. I mainly stated 'approaching' because there are a plethora of cables that do cost
a lot more than $400 such as the Whiplash modular system cables (up to $1000 +, such as the one I
reviewed), Uber and Uber Too cables ($1,200-$1,300 respectively), and others.
I have experienced the BaX cable firsthand (actually I am listening to it with the Supra as I type), and in my opinion, the BaX and SE846 (spent $82 for the BaX) is a terrible combination - no sugar-coating my feelings regarding that combination. I explain more in detail with my
review of the BaX and SE846 combination. The BaX does fair better with the Supra though, as I wanted a warmer cable with the Supra. The BaX doesn't synergize as well with the Legend R in my opinion because I want the Legend R to be as detail retrieving as it can be, and I feel the BaX holds it back in that regard.
With this said, anyone can choose for themselves which cable sounds the best for them, is best for their particular application - and more power to those that do decide to purchase the Super BaX - as I still want to find out how it sounds compared to the regular BaX and other cables, but do not feel like being the ultimate tester (spending double the price as other competent cables) or even worse, a customer that Estron
knows will spend any price necessary to have the "limited edition" Super BaX cable and will charge whatever price they want, because there are at least 100 customers that will spend the money for "exclusivity" and the sui generis nature of the situation.
