I have not heard the Dragons, but I have the cheaper (but not cheap!) Firebird cables and love them! To me they do absolutely do everything right- great dynamics, balance of tone, naturally warm but not murky, detailed but not bright.

Has anybody heard these speaker cables yet? They're supposed to be a direct competitor to the Nordost Odin, I tried to get them from my local dealer, but apparently Stereovox has large backorder log.

Photos, images, links, please.

No links or pictures anywhere. I think Chris introduced these cables at CES early this year, I believe Stereophile even mentioned them on one of the CES daily reports.

In any case, if anyone is close to Stereovox please share some info

Here's the reply I got from Chris after inquiring about these new cables:

"Hi,

Unfortunately - no dealer has these in stock in the USA. Our demand on production from overseas has been taxing, so I haven't promoted domestically. I don't have anything to loan, either. Terribly sorry for this, but these are made-to-order products and I realize that this makes things difficult without a local dealer to make an audition possible.

Best regards,

Chris Sommovigo"

Looks like these cables are finally hitting the Asian market, they're a beauty:

I hope they sound as beautiful as they look, and knowing Chris' past designs they probably will.

I could see how auditioning a 28,000 to 36,000 dollar set of speaker cables is not too high on most common folks to do list!

for 36,000.00 they had effing damn well do a lot more than pass signals from one component to another.

what a bunch of bullshit. Jesus.

and to the OP, no..guy, noone is going to listen to that stuff...well, maybe tres riche people with more money than sense... but not too many of those people here. ..well, maybe clifton. maybe you and he can discuss them to your hearts content.

Not that I care but...

The Silver Dragon's are not made by Stereovox, they are made by this guy: http://www.moon-audio.com/Speaker%20Cable.htm and they cost around $600 for a 10 ft pair, not $30k.
