I pretty much agree with all the posters. I had diamond2x for years. There are much better cables out there/ no matter how one person feels; to each our own,I guess. When the 2x came out (about 8/9 years ago)it was amongst the best. I don't think the competing cables stood still,all that time.
Audioquest Diamond Sound
I need an old timer (like myself) to tell me how an Audioquest Diamond balanced interconnect sounds, versus an Audioquest Diamond x2, x3. My Stereophiles don't go back far enough.
Is an Audioquest Diamond (not x2, x3) 2 meter balanced a good enough cable to connect a Sonic Frontiers SFL-2 to a pair of Sonic Frontier Power 2 monoblocks? Will the resolution be there? I've inserted a Mark Levinson 36S into the system, which I'm having a hard time blending with the Sonic Frontiers. I've added Harmonic Technolog Pro-Silway II between the Levinson and SF preamp, which seems pretty nice. My speakers are B&W 801 with Nordost SPM cables.
