I am a very pleased customer...

Just a note to let you know how pleased I am with the Anniversary speaker cables I purchased. They just keep getting better!

I was running your Elites before, and I thought they were very good indeed. How could things have gotten better? Well, they did. The key word for the improvement is DETAIL. There is much more resolution and sense of space and three-dimensionality than with the Elites. Imaging is superbly tight and focused. I have been transported into another world.

How could they get better from here? Well, I recently ordered a set of Anniversary interconnects. I'm currently running Audience Au24 SX interconnects. Are the Anniversary cables better than the Audience? Somehow I think they will be.

Helping with the resolution...I'm running an all digital system; a PS Audio DirectStream DAC Mk 2 into PS Audio M1200 monoblocks, which drive GoldenEar Triton Reference speakers. Those amps can push 600/1200 W into 8/4 ohms, and they are very fast. Combine that with the Anniversary cables, and we really have serious resolution! Keep up the good work! I am a very pleased customer! - Charlie Hatch

There was more!

The sound simply drew me in...

Well, the results are in and my presumption has been condemned to the dung heap. Apparently custom speaker cables – in this instance, Morrow Audio – are superior to coat hangers (LOL) or heavy-gauge copper wire. My reference music for the A/B comparison of the Morrow SP1s and my current speaker cables was the CD of Charlie Haden/Liberation Orchestra’s “The Ballad of the  Fallen” because of the wide range of instrumentation and for how wonderfully layered & volume-dynamic it is. I connected the new Morrow speaker cables as the “front” speaker position on my recently and completely rebuilt 1971 S9500c Sherwood amp, and my previous cables on the “remote/back” position, both running into my 1971 Tannoy 12” Gold Monitor Coaxial so that I could switch back & forth easily (an on/off toggle for each). As an aside, I bought these components in 1972 and have enjoyed them immensely ever since – particularly after the recent rebuilds by a young, superlative electronics genius here in Nova Scotia.

A summary observation might be that the difference between to two cable sets was at least akin to 50% of the stellar improvement I heard immediately after the rebuilds. Right across the frequency spectrum the Morrow cables "un-muddied" what I had thought was already superb fidelity. Descriptors that apply are: enhanced definition, depth & clarity, with a much more open & expansive sound stage. The highs are brighter, the bass deeper & smoother, the instruments more delineated/differentiated. The sound simply drew me in. The trebles are beautifully crisp & bright and Haden’s bass is so full, resonant & with a color-filled depth – without any boom – which I hadn’t heard before. 

This testing was unfortunately not an A/B of the interconnects, as I replaced all the component cables simultaneously as well, so the difference I’m hearing may also be due in part to the cables between the DAC and the amp (the CD player runs into the DAC via a coaxial cable which I didn’t replace). 

At any rate I will be ordering another set of speaker cables. I will likely be buying a set of higher-quality cables this time around. Taking advantage of MA’s sale was one of the best spontaneous decisions I’ve made.

Pleasantly Surprised

I was pleasantly surprised to hear the difference the MA5 interconnects made in my system. The thing I was most impressed with was the additional detail that I heard in the music. I thought I was using pretty good interconnects (Kimber Hero) but the Morrow cables are much better in my system. The soundstage was not really wider, but definitely had more depth and there was more focus of the individual instruments and voices. I'm very glad I purchased them and will more than likely add some more of your cables in the future. FYI, the MA5 cables are connected from my preamp (Adcom GFP565) to my power amp (Adcom GFA545). The speakers I am using are Acoustat Spectra 2200. - KC

Gave them a try...

I bought a MA1 pair just to test out the claims that you make. I was so pleasantly surprised that I said to myself this would be a good investment. So I went for cables in the sweet spot, the MA4's, so that whatever I upgrade to will be sounding their best cable wise for quite a while and within my budget. So I used your trade in plan and upgraded not only that pair but bought more to complete my system. There are many comments that people have stated in their reviews of your cables, but the one that I'll be adding is the air around the instruments... it sounds more real. A three dimensional sound or sound stage is probably the audiophile term that would apply, especially in concerts that emphasize the reverb in the room. The realism of the sound is the best I've ever heard on any speakers I've listened to. I'm aiming for the best bang for the buck in my system and these cables make what I have sound much more expensive. The percentage of my whole system that I've invested in cables is probably more than many would recommend but it has made my system much better. I can hear a big difference in the recordings that I listen to. I'll be back for more MA4's as I need them in the future. Thank You! David W 

Goosebumps!

I started with MA1 interconnects about three years ago. Before they were even broke in, I could tell these cables were special. Huge soundstage, beautiful tone, and great detail. After year or so I traded up to MA3 interconnects. I was expecting some improvement, but not expecting how much better the MA3s were over the MA1's. These cables give me goosebumps every time I listen to them, they are that good. Huge soundstage with depth and width. Very accurate placement of instruments and voices and a beautiful tone. The only way they'll get my MA3s is by prying from my cold dead hands! - Frank D

Immediate improvement!

Over a period of a couple of months I ordered Morrow several interconnects and have now replaced all of my interconnects with Morrow products.  I began by replacing an Audioquest Cinnamon RCA pair with Morrow MA5’s.  There was an immediate improvement in clarity and a lowered noise floor.  I was encouraged by your sale to replace first generation Shunyata Aries and Altair balanced cables with balanced MA5s.  Again, there was a noticeable improvement even before break-in.  Then I replaced all of the RCA pairs (Shunyata Venom and Aries, Audioquest Columbia, with MA5 interconnects.  Finally, I replaced a Shunyata Venom phono cable with your PH7.   I was not expecting to swap out all of my cables, but the performance of your cables and the discount that you offered made it impossible to resist the opportunity.  I would say that the cables are improving as they break in.  I notice a sweeter, clearer treble, with perhaps more separation of instruments.  There is definitely more bass extension in my subwoofer.  I listen to a lot of acoustic jazz trios so these are qualities that I prize and are readily apparent. Even at full price your products are more than worth the money.  Perhaps in future I will give one of your power cables a whirl against my Shunyatas, or even my Shunyata Delta speaker cables.  - All Hurtado

Really pleased!

Hi Mike, just wanted to let you know that I have been really pleased with the results I noticed with your products. I now have all my equipment (Oppo player>Marantz AVR>Rotel 130 watt amp>SVS Prime Pinnacles, center and sealed sub) wired with level 3 or 4 wiring (4 for the 2 channel stuff). I've taken advantage of your trade up several times over the past year as well as the breakin service to get to this point. I have noticed the same improvements pretty much every step of the way....Better definition and refinement in music, an increase in what I call the Black (lack of white noise/interference), fuller sound with improved drive. I had a friend from out of state visit recently who told me this was the cleanest sounding system he's ever heard. Based mainly on my experience thus far, I'm considering upgrading some power cords next year. Keep up the good work! - Jeff M

Huge soundstage...
I purchased the SP5 speaker cables, and am VERY happy with the results. I was always a bit of a skeptic when it came to cables. I was hoping to hear some kind of difference coming from my inexpensive (but highly regarded) Mogami 3103 cables. I heard a difference alright, and it was not subtle! The music came alive, instruments sounded more real, and there was more clarity. Even in complex loud orchestral passages I can hear clearly what different instruments are doing. Then there's the soundstage. HUGE! At one point I wondered if all this was in my head, and put the Mogami's back in my system. Instantly the magic was gone. These cables are fabulous and I will be purchasing some interconnects as well at some point. Thanks for making a great product, and also thanks to Scott, who helped me through a fiasco with UPS. - Paul R

I was stunned...
Just some quick thoughts. First of all, aesthetics are important and when I opened those gorgeous boxes containing my cable purchases, I was stunned. It might sound silly, but your cables are a thing of beauty. Your standard RCA connectors look way better than any high priced "audio jewelry" offered by other manufacturers. The small spade connectors on the speaker cables fit the barrier strips of my circa 1990 McIntosh amps perfectly. As far as sonics, out of the box, the difference was noticeable and positive. I let my system run for days at a time for "break in" and after a week or so went and did some serious listening. The difference between your cables and my previous cables (a very respected brand that I have used for several years) was NOT SUBTLE. What iced my purchase was the testimonial from Bill Dudleston. My Dad and I had the distinct pleasure of getting the Legacy factory tour and speaker demo from Bill personally several years ago. If your cables are good enough for Bill, then they are certainly good enough for me! You and your crew make a wonderful product and I will definitely be ordering more. Keep up the good work. Thanks again and best regards. -  Al G

Blue Jeans?
I went from Blue Jeans interconnects to Morrow Audio MA4 interconnects. The sound signature was certainly different for the better. More depth, detail, much larger soundstage for sure. Cables DO matter. - Braccio96

Completely satisfied...
I would love to tell you  personally how much I'm enjoying my Morrow audio speaker cables and my Morrow audio power cables.... I also like the easy burn in service you provide... I'm way to anxious to wait for ultimate performance ...so for me burn in is a no brainer. I've recently made an additional purchase and can't wait for those cables to arrive! From my budget perspective and my audio wire, cable, interconnect consistency strategy, Morrow exceeds my expectation. I'm completely satisfied with my system. My gear is a SET tube intergrade, open baffle speakers and a pair floor standing speakers, Dennafrips Aries 2 and a Bluenote 2I. Thanks for all you're doing for modest audiophiles like myself. - Jim

I won't hesitate...
Hi Mike and the Morrow team.  I’ve been using your cables for at least 4 years. Power, speaker, interconnects and most recently for my new subwoofer.  I’ve been thrilled with everything, and even upgraded a few times as my budget has expanded.  I won’t hesitate to add more of your products as my needs change. In addition, I really appreciate hearing from Scott when I place an order and from your techs. - Kurt 

Getting goosebumps!
Mike, I got to tell you these cables are truly amazing. I was very skeptical because I’m always a little suspicious of promises in high end audio, the snake oil thing, you know? I’m blown away by the level of detail your cables provide. Yes, I can hear things that didn’t seem to exist before. Those little details make all the difference. I get goosebumps and can clearly hear the tick of the drumsticks on the cymbals. It feels like you can almost see the wires under the snare drum. The voices are to die for. Well done! Happy client here. - AD

I’m not one for testimonials...
but I will say that I am quite happy with the build and performance of the interconnects and speaker wires I bought. I actually bought these for a new system I will put together in a new dedicated room in a couple of months (a system which will include a pair of Magico A5s). Meanwhile, I couldn’t resist trying the various wires out so I have incorporated them into a modest mid-fi system (Marantz 7704, Triton 7 speakers, but PS Audio Direct Stream source) we use for day to day tv, movies, music. The effect was pretty amazing. My mid-fi system bloomed into a darned good sounding 3 dimension image. The wires I bought are overkill for that system, but it was a very interesting experiment, showing how much one can squeeze out of modern mid-fi equipment. - Sam Z

Audio Science Review  - User Legion1capone

Morrow Audio MA3 RCA cable:
I'll start off by saying that these are by far the most money I've spent on a cable and am still burning them in...  It has been a few days now and I've had my system running almost day and night...

As for the sound... wow. Honestly switching between these and the other 2 cables (Amazon Basics & AudioQuest G Snake) is a big enough difference that I will likely be purchasing a few more pair soon. I honestly didn't think they would make a big difference, yet they have.

The Morrow cables sound so natural. Everything sounds so controlled and percise. They have fantastic transient response and have excellent dynamics. The way it helps paint the picture of your music is truly beautiful. They help you hear the little nuances and details in your music that you may have otherwise missed. I can here more of the details in the tracks I am listening to. With the other cables, the details would be covered up by a slightly muddied sound...

Wasn't sure a power cord would make any audible difference
I know Morrow makes great cables, I have 9 Morrow interconnects and a Morrow subwoofer cable. They improve soundstage, imaging and especially separation, but I wasn't sure that a power cord could make any audible difference. Power cords don't directly handle the audio signal. I was looking for some improvements in sound quality so I tired the map 2. As usual with a morrow cable the improvements were substantial. The biggest improvement was the depth of the soundstage. Definitely worth the money! Give these power cords a try, they are excellent! - Stan

More than satisfied!
I'm not going to claim to be an audiophile. However, IMO I have a pretty good ear; even at my age of 3 score and 10. My equipment consists of a Pro-Ject Carbon Debut turn table with Ortofon Red MM cartridge using a Cambridge Alva Duo pre-amp connected to a Sonos Amp powering Definitive D7's with Sonos Sub. OK...maybe that's low end for some folks but for my budget it's plenty.

I was using the phono cables that came with the Pro-Ject and mid-tier interconnects (of a competitive brand) to the Sonos Amp. My reference vinyl album is Miles Davis' Jack Johnson, Original Master Recording Numbered Special Limited Edition. Having heard Miles perform tracks from the album in live concert I knew I was missing the energy I felt then listening on my current setup.

Upgrading cables seemed to be the logical step to retrieve the sonic I was missing. The PH3's more than exceeded my expectations to present an improved sound stage. What I'm now hearing is like stepping back in time to Miles' live performance. The stereo separation is incredible.

Just in case you're wondering I paired the PH3's with a set of MA3 interconnects. I allowed Morrow Audio to pre-condition the cables for 3 days as well. To complete the transformation I ordered a set of SP3 speaker cables.

I'm more than satisfied with my investment and recommend Morrow Audio to anyone who truly enjoys their music! BTW the monogrammed presentation pouch was an unexpected premium touch at this price point. Way-to-go Mike!!! - Aaron

Not enough room here to list all of the superlatives and feelings they invoke! Ted T
After rearrangement of my dedicated 2.1 Music Room set-up, I started searching for new longer speaker cables to accommodate the component rack placement. My previous cables were too short, so obtained four brands of "multi-strand OFC 12 & 11 gauge speaker wires". Basically, the sonic characteristics were similar.. .flatten soundstage (little depth), mid to upper bandwidth edginess and a smearing of transients within a bloated 2-channel presentation... not very musical, realistic or Live!?!

Realized to obtain the sonic fidelity I knew my system/room was capable of, I'd need to invest more $$$ resources toward those goals. Researching higher end cable products on-line, discovered the vastness of cost and claims, many just "sounding like" good old snake oil for the cost of a 2^ndmortgage?! However, coming across Morrow Audio was for me, like a breath of fresh air. An abundance of ownership testimonials and accolades convinced me to "try" these products, as most were stating just exactly what I was looking for in high-end sound, but for a reasonable investment!

Due to My budget and $$$ value minded interest, I was going to get the SP3 speaker cables, but after a 1 hour conversation with "Mike Morrow", decided to get their self-proclaimed "Best Value vs Performance" SP4 cables! FWIW, I also had them perform a 10-day (240 hour) burn-in period before they shipped,

They came to me pretty much broken in! Once received, and from the first minute of the first CD, the stunning midrange and treble bandwidths and huge stage presence arrived in All their Glory! However, it took about 24 hours of playing music for the bass to arrive (tightness, punch, definition and depth) and Wow, it came in with the Thunder of Thor!!

Gradual, sonic improvements continued all the way through the next 100 hours of music break-in and now at a total of 500 hours (Morrow Cable burn-in + My 24/7 music playback break-in), they present a glorious soundstage that has pinpoint focus, air and separation of vocals, instrumentals and ensembles...all in an extremely accurate and huge venue with tremendous width, depth and height...Very Musical, Realistic and Live!!

The overall sonic bandwidth has so many attributes. There's not enough room here to list all of the superlatives and feelings they invoke!

The balance of an extremely natural, spacious and live 3D Holographic presentation, combined with their excellence in micro/macro dynamics, accurate timbres/tonality, smooth yet detailed resolution and superb attack/sustained/decay articulations make the music reproduced playback effortless, immersive and engaging. FWIW, instruments, strings, keyboard, percussion and vocals (all studied and performed on/with throughout my 15-years of Music study/degree) all sound as they do in the real world. My continued excellent hearing confirms that every day!

I find myself toe-tapping and listening to every bar of music on each CD as I hear and feel what the musicians intended to impart in their creative art of music! Often, my mind is blown, because what I see (my room and my components) versus what I hear (Live Venue Performances) are in such stark contrast, the goose bumps, breath catching and sometimes tears just flow!!

Seems now, I can just enjoy and relish the emotional art my full musical library genre presents without any thought or interference from my "Stereo Setup"!

Letting you know how much I LOVE my cables! - Jose A
A note on the Morrow cables I have in my system: I never thought that cables would make this much of a positive and enhancing experience. I have done cable testing before and I could hear the difference between all the cables that I had listen to, but none of those cables have come close to the resolution, depth, breadth, and clarity of the Morrow Audio cables.

Morrow SUB4 Subwoofer Cable Review….  I recently purchased a 16 inch woofer with 1500 watts continuous power/ 5000+ watts peak SB16-Ultra model from a company called SVS.

I connected it to my system with a standard RCA cable I had laying around.

I thought the speaker sounded fine with the bass being powerful and exactly what i was looking for.  I called the folks at Morrow Audio and asked them how much of a difference a cable connecting to my sub woofer would really make.

I have purchased other Morrow cables and I knew those made a difference, but would it really make a big difference for the sub?  They assured me that it would and so I ordered the SUB4.

WOW. I really mean WOW!  Could I hear and feel a difference!  First I will say that the “speed" of my subwoofer increased. It's seemed as if the subwoofer was more accurate, timely and responsive. It  allowed the SB16-Ultra to produce a sound what I can only describe as incredibly accurate and detailed.

The clarity of the bass Notes were profound. The accuracy of the bass notes was perfect. The harmonics and rich context layered in each instrument appeared magically.

It is an amazing experience to meet the actual acoustic sound of the bass with the physical thump that high powered subs can express. These cables were fast and accurate and clean…  allowing the bass to drive your senses in a way I would not have thought possible.

The second and most important part was how these cables allowed my subwoofer to mate up perfectly with a pair of Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy speakers.  Wilson Audio is legendary for the accuracy of their speaker.  With this cable and many hours of speaker placement/positioning work, the pairing of the speaker is nothing short of spectacular.  Highly recommended.

UPDATE!

In 1999 I was saw an email from Morrow and was reading the reviews about how great their cables were.  I had a Denon AVR-X5200W driving a pair Maganapan SMG speakers and full 9.1 surround system.  I knew their was more that this system could deliver.. but didn’t know what to do.  So I called morrow and ask a lot of questions and decided to order the SP4 cables.  As soon as I connected these cables I knew this was what I was looking for.  The speaker came alive!  The resolution and added clarity that I experienced was amazing.  it was money well spent.  It is true that these cables require break in period.  After 200 hrs of use I could hear the cables coming back and then after 300 hrs they were back to being great.  I have had countless hours of enjoyment. 

Fast forward to 2020.  I had the opportunity to Buy a pair of Wilson Audio WATT/Puppy speakers with Krell Pre-amp/amp and siltech Pure sliver silver cables that were $2000 in the early 90’s.  I connected up the system and it was nothing short of amazing.  Out of curiosity I decided to connect the SP4 cables and I could not believe that they could make that system sound better, but they did!  The Wilson’s sounded more open and clear.  They came alive as just as the Magnapans once did. The sound of each instrument sounded more accurate and precise.  The sound stage was massive and imaging felt three dimensional.  The only thing the old silver cables had was a deeper bass, but that may have been because the rest of the audio spectrum sounded so muted.

I think the best endorsement for the SP4 came from a female friend who knows nothing about stereos, when she said simply… that sounds better that the other cables.  I asked her to articulate, but all she could say was… “I don’t know why, they just do.  I like these better.” 

I know have to sell the pure silver cables and have also decided to upgrade to the SP6 cables.  More on that experience in another review. 

Very pleased! - Rich M:
"I am very pleased with the audio and quality of the PH1 Phono and SUB3 Sub cables I purchased. The difference was noticeable as soon as I swapped out the existing cables. The sound is clearer and more crisp and I am able to experience a more rich soundstage. I am very pleased with my purchases, as well as the break-in service. I already referred one friend who is purchasing cables from you in the very near future. Highly recommended."

Can't stop smiling - David:
I can’t stop smiling and I can’t stop listening! This is with my only installing one of the three sets of Morrow cables! 

I stayed up all night on the day of delivery. My wife called me a moron, and kept me up all night till the next day. I’m exhausted.

I decided to start with a single pair of Morrow interconnects on my reel to reel since I have several safety master tapes.

What I discovered immediately was that I didn’t lose detail at low levels.  Background accompaniments became more than just sounds in the background. Pianos sound like pianos  I can hear individual instruments within sections.  Classical music goes from ppp to fff. Suddenly I was able to adjust the gain level just once and hear the entire piece. 

Lastly, enjoyment. This is as close to live music as I have achieved on any system in my home. I have a few more things to play before I install the second cable. Can’t wait to see what’s instore. Thx for everything. David

A very good investment - Marty T:
Damn! I hooked up the new bi-wire cables and I was surprised just how much of a positive sound impact these cables make; bass, midrange and soundstage are so much bigger. This was a very good investment!
