Thought I would post a pic of Hovland speakers

Here's that email i wrote to you.
Received Lush3 cable yesterday afternoon. To say I am blown away is an understatement.
I'm 69 years old and have been an audiophile since I was 12 and I am hearing information that I've never heard before.
Super clean and beautiful musical glowing overtones. Very organic in its presentation.
More 3D with precision soundstage with mega space around all instruments and voices.
Very fast, but relaxed at the same time. Superb musicality.

An analogy would be: Lush3 isn't about seeing thru clean glass, it's about removing it all together.

This is the most analog sounding wire I've heard. All the beautiful things I love about vinyl shine thru with this cable.

Now to the store for some diapers. I keep sh*tting in my pants.😊

Let me introduce myself to this forum. My name is Ken Beckman and I’m 69 years old and have been an audiophile for 57 years now. In 1971 I was lucky enough to meet Bob Hovland who happened to live only a mile from me at the time. We became friends and I was able to be on an R&D listening panel for Hovland projects for the next 40 years. Alex Crespi from Uptone Audio was also on the listening panel for over 40 years.
Some of the projects were taking an attenuator and listening to different resistors and rewire with many different wires also. The development of Hovland interconnect and speaker cable, and AC cord.. Five years of R&D for the Hovland speaker which lead to the Hovland MusiCap. I owned Serial #1 of the Hovland HP100 preamp. On and on for over 40 years I was blessed to have the learning experience of all these things that designers have to consider when putting together an audiophile grade product and hearing myself first hand the many differences I experienced.
My last big system was all Hovland except a 300B push pull mono amps from Lennert Anderson Audio.
From my circuit breaker to my AC outlets was Hovland AC cord, and the wall behind speakers was filled with sand.
Fifteen years ago I got rid of it because it became like heroin to me. I just kept listening to the same music and having upgrades to my system when new and better parts became available. A total burn out.
A year ago I decided I wanted to put together a budget computer based budget system that would be listenable.
Total investment $3,000
Here’s what I ended up with:
Ice Age AC cord>Uptone LPS1.2 power supply>ghentaudio star quad DC cable>ISO Regen
Out from PC  - Uptone USB adapter> ISO REGEN> Lush 3>Denafrips Aries II with Ice Age power cord>Hovland G3 interconnect> JBL LSR-305 powered speakers with Hovland AC cords. The speakers only cost $300 a pair, less than a Lush 3 cable and they sound like a couple grand. Very neutral sound to me. The one thing this speaker has always done is let me immediately know if a change is better or worse. No going back and forth. I was getting ready to upgrade to Focal Shape 65 which would be an ideal replacement since they’re  very similar but cost $2,000 a pair. I decided to get Lush 3 instead, and upgrade speakers at a later date. I’m happy I got the Lush 3 instead for now. This system is all about cluck for the buck.
This system has totally exceeded my expectations and I’m now enjoying new music again. It’s even hard for me to digest, but this system sounds way better than the last one, for a tiny fraction of the investment.
One of the biggest improvements I’ve ever heard was upgrading from Lush 2 to Lush 3. It is not subtle, and will change your system dramatically.  In fact it will be so much different, you won’t recognize the sound of your own system. It’s equivalent to a major component upgrade. Makes it sound like a direct microphone feed in the recording booth. I thought Lush 2 was clean. It’s not. Lush 3 removes so much distortion, it’s amazing. Both macro and micro dynamics add to the musicality with instrument vinyl like overtones. Super fast and relaxing pace at the same time. Little things you didn’t even know you were there, just appear before your ears. It’s quite startling to hear so much more information.(I did not think this was possible). Wait until you hear a upright bass sound its size. Not just a plucked bass note. Listen to Sheila Jordan “You Don’t Know What Love Is” on the album Yesterdays Live in Concert. Her haunting voice with just bass accompaniment is jaw dropping. Try Larry Carlton and Robben Ford “Nm Blues” and “Cold Gold” from their Unplugged Album. The tonality of the guitars is mind blowing realistic. Another favorite of mine is hearing the separation of voices and resonater guitar work from Hans Theessink and Terry Evans on the cut “Mother Earth” from their album - Visions.
Want to enjoy some amazing drum whacks with some analog cymbals (amazing piano work included)? Try “Grandmama’s” Blues from the Cyrus Chestnut album - Earth Stories.
In fact everything I listen to blows my mind. Many songs that I’ve in my Tidal queue that were previously not sonically enjoyable to me, are now, with Lush 3. Whenever you can add more songs that bring you pleasure is a giant step in the right direction, and Lush 3 does that in spades.

EDIT: 11/16
Some where around 100 hours the Lush 3 stops showing off, and bows out of the signal and just lets the music take over with the most open, without boundaries sound I've ever heard. Sonically it's the equivalent of a several thousand dollar DAC upgrade, if not more.
Easily the BARGAIN component of the last decade.
