Audience SX2/Front Row Cables...has anyone tried or heard much of this new reference line?

I have been extremely satisfied with Audience Interconnect and Speaker cable for some time, natural/organic/neutral presentation that works with every component I’ve used, solid state or tube. I own Au24 SX XLR Interconnects and Speaker cables. I have also been impressed with Audience cables price to performance ratio. I just received an email of another breakthrough reference line, the Au24 SX2, which will actually be called the Front Row line.  Alas, pricing at $5100 per 2 meter Speaker cable is no longer readily affordable. I guess Audience is rapidly catching up in price to its competitors, now that they also enjoy name recognition and stellar reviews. However, they are wonderful cables!  Has anyone heard these cables or know much about them relative to SX line? If they’re as much a revelation over the SX as the email from Audience claims, I might have to start saving. I’ll wait for the reviews I guess.  Thank you to all!

I have a pair of Audience AU24SX RCA interconnects.

Combined with lots of grief from my family on the purchase.

Awesome improvement. Not in a hurry to change, as my sales speech was these were 'end-game' cables.

Contacted the distributor regarding Front Row when I read about them. The price was YIKES! Although interested, I couldn’t in conscience agree to their demo offer knowing I wouldn’t be buying them.

Sent my SX interconnects down to my cousin two months ago, bettering his dealer provided $800 balanced cables. Haven’t got them back yet (not sure I will).

 

Waiting to get a pair of SX speaker cables.

I'm looking to try/buy an Audience AU24SX AES/EBU. 

Think I'll prefer this over the Front Row.

Another option is either Atlas Mavros or Triode Wire Labs Spirit 110. Has anyone tried these?
