Acousti Zen cables...

Phil, I remember a remark you made not too long ago about Acoustic Zen cables seeming to have forceful bass throughout their line. I've owned or currently use MC2, Silver Ref II, Matrix Ref II and Hologram II and never really thought about that until you mentioned it, and I agree.

I really like AZ cables, but after comparing the Hologram II and Audience AU24 speaker cables for almost five months, I chose the AU24 because of it's much more natural presentation and ability to reveal detail in the midrange and create a more realistic sonic picture.

Now I'm stuck on your comment of "better bass perspective" in reference to the AU24 interconnects. :•)

Phil, I just pulled the trigger on two pairs of AU24 interconnects, so I'll have a chance to compare them head-to-head with the AZ Silver Ref II and Matrix Ref II they will replace. So far, using the Silver Ref II in combination with and upstream of the Matrix Ref II has worked very well for me. It'll be interesting to hear the differences.
