Greg Cannava –
This is my third review in about a month’s time. I started with a Digital American power cable for my streamer, then a High Power Digital American cable for my integrated amp, and finally the Spirit II RCA cables for my streamer.
These products truly compliment each in a beautifully natural way. My system has never sounded more lifelike. Holographic imaging, dynamics, natural timbre for acoustic instruments – all there In spades.
Very happy with the cables!

Thanks, Greg! I appreciate your kind comments! Enjoy the music with your hi-fi rig! Cheers – Pete

Pete, I started with your 10 Plus power cables on both our Art Audio PX25 tube amp & Joule Electra preamp and was impressed with the added explosiveness they provided. Music now jumps out of the Avantgarde Duos with more slam and dynamic range than with our other power cables while still maintaining a natural presentation. Bass is deeper and tighter too. Our Snake River Cottonmouth & Cardas Clear Beyond XL; both much more expensive; do not compare. Surprising considering their cost of $1275 & $2700 vs your $399.
Now I just ordered my second pair of your Spirit II RCA interconnects. It took several days for the first pair (received last week) to settle in but when they did… WOW! Better than our much more expensive Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval and silver Homegrown Audio DNAs. The presentation is lush while still detailed, without the loss of treble, and vocals are natural & halographic. I don’t know how you do it, especially considering your prices, but… thanks.

Hi Dave – Thanks for your kind comments! Believe it or not, I get a lot of comments at the various Audio Shows that my cables are “Too Reasonable to be taken Seriously!”… I always ask these audiophiles how does our room sound? They always say “Fantastic” or some other extremely positive comment.
I guess some audiophiles like to throw away their money instead of purchasing TWL’s Affordable Audiophile cable products!… Seriously! LOL!
Cheers – Pete

Not sure how to describe these, other than they make my system sound better. I was looking to spend a lot more than this on some well known brand name interconnects, but don’t feel the need at this point. Used my first set of these to connect a Schiit Gungnir multibit DAC to my PrimaLuna Dialog HP integrated. With just these cables, I hear more leading edge and transients than with my previous cables, and I heard some reverb that I hadn’t heard before. In combination with Pete’s speaker cables and power cables, I’m hearing a more dynamic and rhythmic sound. Live albums present more of the hall ambience. Well done, Pete, and another order will be coming.

I purchased your Spirt II interconnects and American speaker cables at the same time, replacing Signal Cable interconnects and some older AudioQuest speaker cables. The resolution I’m getting is outstanding. The emotion of the music is being expressed beyond my expectations. Incredible value and incredible performance!

Thank you Stuart! I appreciate your kind accolades!

Years ago I learned of this prestigious company making high end audio cables and never forgot them as I began my journey into lofty hi-fi. Two weeks ago I received the Spirit II interconnects and it didn’t take the full break in period for me to realize the quality of sound I had pursued had arrived. Timbre became authentic. Dynamics from low to high extended while maintaining a fine balance. Bass levels are extended to the lowest levels my speakers could produce. Vocals are now clear and realistic. Solo classical piano is produced with an authentic realism I didn’t know was possible. Thanks Pete for elevating my modest audio system into the club. I’ll be ordering another pair soon.
