Anyone have any impressions on the Auteur 2k Copper and Silver Michanikós cables?
I've heard stranded is technically inferior to pure solid core but the Jenna Labs uses cryotreatment which I have noticed with tube pins increases detail and dynamics. Easy to fall into a cable wormhole. Zachs offering looks gorgeous though and it seems like he tuned it with the Auteurs in mind. Smooth and detailed seems to be the best match for the Auteurs sound signature, but of course neutralness is where I should probably be looking.
I must say music that I've really enjoyed in the past, under a neutral sound signature sound way less appealing. It's fun getting to pick apart tracks by the production alone tho!
Joined the club this week with this set of blackwood Auteurs that I got locally from Hivemind Cables!
Impressions later once they finish bbq'ing in pink noise
Interesting -- your Blackwood is a lot more brown than mine - or maybe it's just the lighting in your photo. Mine look very dark, nearly black. I still like my brass grills and rods
As an aside, two Auteur's showed up f/s used today -- 1 teak, 1 blackwood. Looks like the Teaks sold in about 8 hours.

Theres something about these ZMF woods! My teak looks different during different times of the day, its fascinating.

It's called chatoyance, most well finished exotic woods have some level of it. Zach gets really good cuts for his cups, and as we know, finishes them well So, most of them have some chatoyance to them.
...My Ether Flows have some tough competition now!...
