believe me, even if I had paid $50-100 over retail, I would have been happy...as small as they are, they sound great...

as soon as i get my set of hypers in, i'll give joeshambro a call and see if i can borrow his Xtreams for a show.  I can't BT the comp but i can send it off to somebody who might want to :)

edit: the only thing is mine are gonna be 20' and not 15' like joe's xtreams, but i don't think that should make too mcuh of a difference.

FWIW, i was informed by Nutter that he has been using these exclusively on all of his jobs he's undertaking currently outside of SS and has been very pleased with the results.

I will second Nutter's results....I have been using them for a couple of months now, and they absolutely rock...dont affect the sound much...only thing I can hear in my ears is when the venue pushes the PA and the highs used to be captured in a brittle sound, they are much smoother...great, great cables....

exactly nick, and that's what i've been reading from all who have posted on these cables so far.  The TL's are on the brighter side, especially in omni, so i figured these cables would really smooth them out and make them even more clean than they already are. i'll be ordering them monday :)

nope, I view this as I do all gear recommendations...the more gear in the field that is pleasing to my ears, the less crap tapes that I have to listen to :)

completely selfish motivation you see....

so i was finally able to try out my new set of 20' hyper lites, right angles on both ends :).  first off, what a well built cable!  very solid.  i've been listening to the first show i taped with these at my usual venue in my usual spot and after only 1 minute of listening the clarity and sharpness these cables have brought out of my recordings is ..... well,  clearly noticeable! the low end is much more defined and tight. The high end defined by the TL's and V2 is even more pristine and sharp. really brings an upfront and in your face sound that i have always been striving for.  i highly recomend these cables as well!

Nicely said....my thoughts exactly with my TLs as well.  Paticularly the "an upfront and in your face sound" description.
