Audio Reference Technologies (ART) and their cables were headlining a room at the California Audio Show this year.

The audiophile market has seen an influx of expensive cables these last few years. Of great benefit to our ears but detrimental to our wallets.

 

We are showing the A.R.T. cables first in this report because nobody [including us] gives cables any respect in show reports and that is just wrong.

OK. Back to the heavier gear.

The rest of the gear was similarly modest in comparison with the price and quality of the cables…
