Audience Front Row?


I am researching the difference between the Audience Front Row USB and the Audience Front Row Reserve USB cable. I cannot find what the "upgrade" is for the Reserve, nothing on their website. I cannot find any reviews. But the Front Row USB seems like a good cable from what I can find.

@audphile1 No, I know that they put quite a few hours on it before shipping, so sometime next week I expect.

Yes, after posting this I called them. The guy on the phone told me they have OCC silver in them. I asked how they compare sonically to the frontRow. He didn’t know, suggested I email John McDonald the owner, so I did. I specifically asked him the difference and  sonic difference between the 2 cables. 

This is his response:

"The reserve cable is more than an upgrade to the regular front row. Whereas the front row is made from copper, the reserve cable is made from all OCC silver.

So I really never got the answer I was looking for, but they are on order so i will burn them in a see how they do compared to the AudioQuest Diamond USB I just traded for them.

 

 

Further clarification from John:

Hi Fred,

 

The reserve USB, as compared to the regular front row, USB, has more resolution, and all that comes with that. it will allow you to hear more into the music with the greater dynamics and intimacy.
