Nick or anyone else that wants to comment:

What's break in time on these...or silver cables in general?  Are these good right from the git go?  They getter better after more use?

Brian,

My original review/listen found them to be very smooth out of the box, so to speak...I have only put 20-25 hours on them so far, so I will post back when I get in the 40-50 hr range...

just got email back from sonic sense saying they are going to find out the price for a 20' pair with RA male ends from AM.  probably more than i can afford right now, but i figured hey might as well ask to find out.

would really like to start gettting some higher quality cables in my rig :)

yeah,,, i hear ya. i would much rather have female RA's as well if i ran SD mics.  with my TL's i think RA's at the mic end would make it not as low-pro.  male RA's would work nicely for my V2 :)

as small as these cables are, right angles are not nearly the necessity for SD mics at the mic end....just food for thought...

oh yeah, but the need would still exist for a pre that does not have a cage and "sits" on the cables...

well i'm taking the plunge. once i saw these in the pics i just had to have them ;D (I was already looking to get a hifi set of xlr cables for my rig).  Marc Nutter is gonna hook me up for a set of 20 footers with male right angles for a great price!  MUCH cheaper than the suggested retail price Audio Magic gave him.

looks like these puppies will make it to Coventry. Dem split omnis are gonna sound that much sweeter 8)

Marc, if you come across this, BIG THANKS!

Nick, you've got me sold.  should be a nice step up from my Blue-Kiwi cables.  with those i've always felt like i'm winding up a garden hose when i tear down my rig.

nmculbreth - thanks for the heads up on the demo deal at sonicsense....looks like i'll be calling them today!

just made the purchase!  demo pair shown on the website had already been sold, so they gave me a fair deal on a new pair.  can't wait to try them out
