hzgone:
Quick question about these cable. The price i see for these is around 360 bucks is that for one or two.  Cause 720 bucks seems high to me for active cables but i could be wrong.

Brian Skalinder:
$360 must be for one because I've seen 'em around for $720/pr.  Prices just went up, a pair used to go for around $550 or so.  Seems high?  Yup.  Even the AKG actives for the very affordable 39x's are expensive.

creekfreak:
Yes, they are expensive, but I think worth every dime when you see what a small footprint it gives you, you can clamp anytime, anywhere and not be noticed :). I got a used pair for $500

JAH:
did someone say $choep$..... :o    ;)

KC5:
the cable construction and material seems better than the neumann active cables.  haven't seen the akg ones.  only thing i didn't care for about the kc5's was that they had to be re-coiled in a particular way or they would get all tangled.  same with the kcy.  i know some guys would tape them together at 1-2 ft intervals to avoid the tangled mess.  never tried it myself.
