I am a working musician, not a lawyer, and I've compared Colossal's Modern Classic to cables that cost more than twice as much. The difference is very real. I can't wait to hear the SweetFats!

on 03/19/2010 		There are many factors involved when it comes to tone and how sound is transmitted. Without getting too technical, cables link the guitar to the amplifier and from the amplifier to the cabinet. Any instrument and speaker cable will do this, right? Now bare with me for a second, a car gets you from point A to point B and you have a choice between driving a Kia or a Lamborghini...both will get you to your destination but you'll have to admit driving the Lamborghini VS. the Kia would be a completely different experience. The two both basicly do the same thing but the performance level is different. Like the car analogy, cables do the same thing and depending on the grade of copper, the gauge of the conductor, how many strands in the conductor, the gauge of those strands, whether or not its oxygen free copper, if its silver plated copper, or if its a solid core conductor, the type of solder used, etc. Those factors as well as others all contribute to the performance of a cable. www.colossalcable.com

There are two conductors (the center conductor and the shield) and they are separated by a non-conductor (the insulation between the center cable and the shield). So there you have a 25 foot long capacitor and the quality/design of this cabling material will determine the level of capacitance over a given length. Various cables will cause various differences in tone, eq etc. Really interesting stuff and knowledge of it can help you take a "systems" approach to building your rig.

on 03/19/2010 		Still a mystery to me! I always thought that voodoo about audio cables was intended at wealthy lawyers fans of hifi. I have measured lots of good cables with a SIM3, and phase and frequency wise none have shown a difference. So as far as I understand, electrons are pretty much moving at the speed of light whatsoever and provided you allow enough of them to "shake" to carry your signal, with a good shielding, your sound should across pretty much unaltered. Unless of course your start to stick some resistors somewhere to purposely make it sound "different" and by no means better since passively, you may only remove "something". But if someone makes me see the light I am ready to review my beliefs for more appropriate ones and place an order!

on 03/18/2010 		You can take a handful of different cables made from different manufacturers and out of different components and EACH will sound different. One may pass more or less highs, more or less bass etc. The point being that cables make a HUGE difference in tone and are yet another ingredient in each players tone recipe. <br> <br> Brad Jackson <br> http://www.jacksonamp works.com

Great. So this cable allows your signal to move from point A to point B without altering it then? Isn't that supposedly the job of about any audio cable? :-) I am glad Premier Guitar added " Colossal Cable says"
