Amonst impossiblie to reply to your question. Diamonds sound better than the Emeralds or Lapis in my system- You'd have to try them in your system to detemine if you like them. Much too subjective to get a realistic answer without hearing them in your system with yor music. Buy them used and sell them if you find they're not for you.
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.
