TARA Labs RSC Vector 2 interconnect, 1.5m, RCA

Click for bigger view

This is one VERY good interconnect for the money.  Rectangular Solid Core (RSC) 8N conductors from TARA Labs, minimalist aerospace-grade, chemically-stablized polyethylene insulation, helixed around a tube, and crossed to self-shield.  Simple, effective, and GREAT sounding!

Nicely open and resolving, with a hint of sweetness on top, and bass that's tight and tuneful.  I enjoyed this cable the first time I heard it, and it only got better as it cooked in for the next 200 hours or so.  It's a BARGAIN at its price.  Vector 2's a bit more forgiving than its big brother, the Vector 1, which  will tell you what you own.  If you've still got an older piece of digital gear that's still a bit shiny, you can live very peacefully with the Vector 2.  If there are no errors, consider the Vector 1...cleaner, quicker, more open, with bass that's articulate to the depths!
