Okay. I bought them used. WW PLatinum were not shamed by them. That's all I have compared them with...And?
Good? Probably
Bad? probaby not
Ugly? Definitely not
even my wife liked the look of the upper Skogrand cables. She says if cables have to visible, they should look like upper Skogrands, i.e. like jewelry
Comparison with other cables you own/know?
Hi Howie, just wondering what you meant by WW Platinum were not shamed? WW Platinum performed as good as the Skogrand Beerhoven? I am looking for a 10 m long RCA interconnec that would really perform and wouldn’t break the bank, right now strongly considering Skogrand because their extra length doesn’t cost much like Siltech.Okay.

Yes pretty much. Last night I decided to plug in a pair of Sablon interconnects to my phono and A/Bed them with the Beethoven's. I need to try it again today but initial thoughts are that the Sablon may be even better. The beethoven appeared to be a little less defined, voices were less clear. As for your 10m rca, that seems quite long for a rca cable? Are you not concerned with noise? May be try it with a cheapo cable first to see if the 10m works?Hi Howie, just wondering what you meant by WW Platinum were not shamed? WW Platinum performed as good as the Skogrand Beerhoven?

WOW! That’s quite a revelation to me, thanks a lot for you sharing your experience Howie, much appreciated. Sablon or WW platinum would save me a lot of money to be put towards something else. BTW: I assume your Beethoven is fully broken in?Yes pretty much. Last night I decided to plug in a pair of Sablon interconnects to my phono and A/Bed them with the Beethoven's.

Yes the beethoven's are way beyond break in. I bought them used so they were broken in by the first owner. Ask Mark at Sablon to loan you a pair of rca so you can compare. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Mine have the Bocchino plugs on and i think that's important to include.WOW!

These past few days also revealed something else to me, full Siltech loom doesn’t necessarily give me the best sound, few days ago we kept on adding Siltech to the loom and to a certain point the sound became too bright and can only be tamed by switching Siltech to something else. Right now I am looking for that something else and that something else gotta come in 10 meters long. Right now I have Goebel Lacorde Speaker Cable burning in my system and it actually seems to be turning into something really special, perhaps even better than the Siltech. I just texted my dealer asking about the price for 10m of Goebel interconnect.
About noise from 10m RCA, I heard about that concern a lot and I was very concerned about that too myself but my dealer assured me not to. We tried the HSE Reference phono (XLR only) with 10 m Luna XLR cable with the end connected to RCA adapter going to the G70 pre amp so it wasn’t really a balanced connection and I heard no noise or lack of energy whatsoever with the 10 m interconnect. Off course I am going to try the same thing at home with loaner Luna interconnect from my dealer first before committing to something more expensive.
thanks Howie!!

Skogrand Cables are Crystal Clear, Pure and transparent , the feeling of rightness and beauty in sound is high. the midrange quality of skogrand cables (in ultra revealing loudspeakers) is shocking experience. the skogrand cable is transparent but not in analytical/forward manner.Anyone got experience of these?
Agree this would be a very interesting comparison for the reasons you state. Inakustik cheaper, so if the design works, then would be a good alternative.Wanted to keep this one going - has anyone compared Skogrand against Inakustik. Both brands seem to be going with air as the dielectric.
Very surprised that Skogrand has bested Hemingway z core for some users - I was under the impression they were untouchable.
I have Skogrand AC cable , both Rachmaninov and Stravinsky.Have you tried their power cables ?. They are in different league. Not many know about these cables, but are truly outstanding.
Yes, this new product is very intriguing!New Silver cable will be in MOC 2024
