Argent Pursang - Your input, please....


Has anyone had the chance to listen to the Argent Pursang speaker cables? While I know it will be highly system-dependent, I'm curious as to how they might compare with my current Acoustic Zen Satori Shotguns? Do they like ribbons/tubes?

Based on comments I've read from users, I've yet to hear any drawbacks and the price point is within reach of my ever-shrinking wallet.

The Argent Audio Pursang speaker cable is the best cable that I have ever used. I particularly enjoy the cable's superb tonal balance from top to bottom, wide and deep sound stage, detail, and clarity. The Pursang cable also has a "cutting through" quality (immediacy) and is very dimensional (holographic).

In my opinion, the Pursang is much more resolved than the Acoustic Zen Satori speaker cable. The Pursang has better extension, clarity, focus, and is more dimensional from front to back.

If you enjoy silver cables, the Pursang is very lush in the mids, without being colored, and has a high degree of musicality.
Hello George and Eric, all good comments from two great audiophiles. My personal comment is that we should compare apples with apples, not oranges with apples. Therefore, IMO price comparisions should be based on "new" or "used," rather than comparing used with new or vice versa.

I recently sold my Signature Speaker cables (after upgrading to the Pursang cables) for nearly 70% of retail price, which is rarely done in the resale market.

Hello Gerryn, may I recommend that you contact Ric Cummins and ask him about your querry about what you will gain or lose by replacing your Satori bi-wire shotgun configuration for a single or double run of the Pursang cable. Or, you may contact me directly for additional information.
