Not a good experience for me
I’m sorry to give a negative review on what seems to be a very high quality and well thought out product, but I have to share my experience. I have used this cables to connect my Benz Micro Glider SL to an Ortofon LH9000 headshell. Compared to the wires that come with the shell (I guess the ortofon 6N headshell leads), the 1877phono ones led to a more sterile presentation, less precise imaging, less threedimensionality and body, bass less controlled, highs a bit fatiguing, less dynamic. The clips on the shell side were a bit too large, but they allowed a sufficient grip on the pins and I don’t think that is the problem leading to the lesser presentation. I think the problem is most likely the rhodium plating. in my experience rhodium plating on audio signal connectors lead to sterile and harsh sound, this is the third time I have bad experience with rhodium, the other two being Ramm spades and Neotech XLR connectors. In all cases I had to switch back to gold or silver plating even giving time to break in. I have all power connector furutech rhodium plated but for audio signal now I’m really done with rhodium, I’ll try no more. To give context I have a Garrard 401 TT with modified SME 3009 II improved, Mark Levinson 26 and 23.5, and Tuscanini planar magnetic speakers (very revealing of any insignificant defect along the audio chain as in this case).
