Title: Disappointing
Review: Picked this up for use w/ my MacBook Pro & Apogee DAC (stereo: james loudspeaker, anthem statement, krell, cardas). Was using a generic $10 2m/6-6pin firewire cable and figured i'd give the monster a whirl to see if there were any gains to be had. In my case, I found that the monster cable just didn't play nice w/ my DAC:i_ the cable likes to pop out far too easily (more than i anticipated)ii_ when using the monster cable i find my DAC likes to reset to 24Bit/44.1KHz when set to run at higher sample rates 88.2/96/176/192Khziii_ 16Bit/44.1KHz recordings sound fine but 24Bit recordings are noticeably lacking in depth when compared to my $10 cable ...i'm starting to think putting the $$$ toward an amethyst geode to minimize geopathic stress would have been a better sonic move but on the upside it does give me a reason to check out Oyaide, EntreQ, and Siltech next.
Is the review positive or negative?
