I am still holding to a pair of Emeralds and Argents from way back for ole time sakes. They were my entry into high end cables. They still sound pretty good in the right system. Just not in mine right now.
I did do a long cable comparison a year ago including the Emeralds. Maybe you can find it in the archives.
