Summary:
to make it short, this cable is superb, i was using the
dh labs digital cable, but after going to the lat
website and reading their "cable hype"
section, i decided to try them, needless to say, i
returned the dh labs. i would gladly do a comparison
between the di-20 mk 2 and anything else out there.
Strengths:
very open, very detailed, especially on dts cd's
Weaknesses:
not enough distributors
Similar Products Used:
kimber, monster, tributaries, dh labs, etc.

Reviewed by: Hank, Audio
Enthusiast, from Oakview IL USA
Product Model Year:
2000
Summary:
The first thing that suddenly hits you after burn-in, is
that some thing in the music is missing. But no,…...
shortly thereafter I realized that nothing in the music
is missing. It was the grunge and digital hash that I
had gotten used to that was missing. There was now a
clarity and transparency that made vocals seem like the
vocalist was right there in the room. If you turn out
the lights and listen in the dark, it’s almost scary
real! The Mark II is no slouch with instrumentals
either. The resolution of detail brought out
instrumental sounds I had never heard before on familiar
CDs. When you combine the great voice and instrumental
performance it gives in a CD like Beethoven’s ninth by
Telarc, it is pure thrill to me. I have good ears, and
so does my wife, although she is not much of an
audiophile. At one point she came into the room and
asked if these were the same CDs she had always heard me
play. “I like them better now”. Also, the quality of
construction is first class. They use their own special
wire material they call silverfuse. I am not an
engineer, I don’t understand the technical make-up of
Silverfuse. If you want know what silverfuse is, go to
their web site- they explain it, latinternational.com,
but whatever it is it sure sounds great to me. The LAT
cable replaced my $500.00 Nordost Silver Shadow –
forever!
Strengths:
Great quality for low cost. Very transparent, like there
is no cable there
Weaknesses:
None I could find
