Romy, it takes several months for those blackgate caps to fully calm down….

Actually I take more like several decades and then 5 years after you each time shut down the unit for 5 minutes. I am known to be not a huge fun of BG, in fact I religiously against them. The regular Rubicon caps are way better then those Hi-Fi “BG expediters”. The fully burned-in Black Gates might be more or less OK but the question why people shell be going over months and years of pain and suffering with BG if the very same (even better) result might be accomplished with other caps that have no ESR instability and no “artificial sound insemination.” Anyhow, based upon my attitude you understand that I have no BG in my Bidat, nor anywhere in my playback.

I just commissioned Moray James to make a digital cable for the Bidat. You may or may not know that John Wright used Moray's digital cables to voice his mods and Moray uses John's modded bidats to make his cables. I've heard from others that the resulting synergy is amazing. I'd be glad to post results once I audition it if.

I am not familiar with what Moray James does. The name sounds familiar. There was guy in UK scene who was Moray James – sounded like an intelligent fellow. I have no frustrations with digital cables and have a solution that I very comfortable. I would be very interested in balanced digital cables though that would perform at the level of my Synopsis….
