REVIEW: The following is a quote from a 10 Audio review of the Satori in which the reviewer states that it is his new reference cable and better sounding than the Zen Hologram II: "I do not believe my reference system let me hear the Hologram II cables properly or to their best advantage. Single wired, 45 watts, subwoofers for bass. A cable that was designed for bi-wiring was not really at home here. Having said that, I will refrain from making a more detailed comparison of the two cables, other than to say that I noticed a bit of fuzziness or lack of focus in the midrange and treble compared to the stellar clarity and resolution of the Satoris in my system. My impression is that the Holograms, designed more for bi-wiring with a pair of “bass conductors” and a pair of “treble conductors”, slightly skew the signal when the conductors are put together. In a bi-wire system, however, that impression will probably be different. If your system is bi-wired, check out the Hologram IIs and also a double run of Satori - the Shotgun. The price is almost the same. I am completely unequivocal about the performance of the Satoris. It was so exceptional that I contacted the factory and asked if I could acquire some raw wire to rewire the inside of the Fostex speakers. I was told that they don’t sell bulk cable. Never one to accept reality without a struggle, I mentioned that I saw someone advertise on Audiogon a pair of “Satori jumpers” with spade connectors. I asked if I could get a pair of “Satori jumpers” of the correct length, but without spades. Hold the mayo! After a few moments hesitation, the really great folks at AZ agreed. It looks like they may be in the bulk cable business after all. Each Fostex speaker needs 18 inches of wire from binding post to the terminals on the driver. The Satori wire replaced 11.5 ga Cardas wire. As with the speaker cables (8 foot pair), the internal wire again increased resolution and lowered the level of hash and distortion to new low levels, and again increased low-level resolution without glare. With Acoustic Zen wire from the amplifier terminals to the speaker driver terminals, the openness, clarity, freedom from distortion and harshness, and the overall believability of music has improved significantly. Although somewhat stiff and bulky, I highly recommend wiring your speakers internally with Satori cable. As you may have surmised, the Satoris are the new reference speaker cables. They clearly convey more information than any other cable I have heard. They also clearly convey less information than any other cable I have heard, but this latter decrease can only be considered to be gross cable-induced or -generated distortion. The asking price is the proverbial “steal”, but please don’t. Just buy them at your earliest opportunity. After hearing the amazing Acoustic Zen Satori speaker cables, you might get off the cable upgrade path, too".
