    Lex makes me the Cat's meow

    Lex,
    I know this should be a personel e-mail but, can't stop myself. I called Lex and asked him if he could make me three sets of interconnects that were RCA at one end and male XLR at the other. After a couple of e-mails and a phone call or two we settled on a design concept, 99% his 1% mine. Yesterday they arrived and all I can say is WOW!!!!!, they are way beyond my expectations. My Kimber Heros are now in the bin with the other interconnects I have acumulated over the years and the Cats are in place.
    Thank you Lex.

    Hey Bob, wow, you got them fairly quickly! Thanks on the cables, I am really glad they rock for you!

    For those curious, Bob's cables are a special geometry hybrid silver/copper interconnect with XLR to Cardas RCA configuration, covered in Reflex flexible sleeving, logo RCA end only, shorter shrink on XLR end.

    Rather interesting cables, time consuming to build, but a real pleasure to make. Another cable will surface with similar design, though likely not exactly the same, sometime soon.

    Bob's cables will probably be one of a kinds.

    Enjoy Bob!

      Wait a sec, I thought I owned the patent on the half-RCA half-XLR cable! :LOL: Hey, you have another satisfied customer! Nice cables too. My half-and-half was just a run of the mill Bluetiger, but it makes my sub sing!

            A question of temporary cables.
            by Rock Dog
            I have a set of Silver and Copper cats on order, but my 1095 and 1066 are here now. Other than the quality of sound issue. Will it be ok to use the cables that came with the 1066 (a couple of steps above Radio Shack :LOL: ) until I get my Cats?

            I only ask because the 1095 manual says...

            Hi,

            About a week ago I put a review style post in another forum in HTguide regarding my experiences with a Silver Coax made by Doug (aka "Lex") of www.catcables.com

            A friend (Club Rotel member) who heard the differences the cable made and hadn't seen the said

            Copper Cats vs. Silver Cats for Klipsch speakers
            by Danbry39
            I'm going to be ordering three pairs of new audio interconnects soon. What I've heard is that silver is bad for Klipsch speakers in that it accentuates the bright nature of the speakers. In other words, would the Coppercats be better for me?

            Another question, I'd want three of one length...

            Cat's Meow !
            by George Bellefontaine
            Every now and then I look for something different in a movie, and with the Cat's Meow, I found it.

            It deals with William Randolph Hearst who invites a group of Hollywood folk out for a cruise on his yacht ( ship is more like it ). The crowd includes Hearts's mistress Marion Davies ( played...

            by Andrew Pratt
            Hey Doug I just wanted to thank you again for the incredible work you do on my new silver cats and the digital coax cable they arrived A-Ok this morning which was perfect timing since I took the day off to do some projects. I'm in the middle or retooling my rack, building new stands for the mains and...
