Audioquest Dragon ZERO vs Transparent Opus


Thoughts on speaker cable between Audioquest Dragon Zero vs Transparent Opus. 

Speakers: Wilson Alexia V

Amp: Dan D'Agostino S250 amplifier MxV

Future turntable thinking TechDAS Airforce III

Future preamp Dan D'Agostino Momentum HD 

Wide range of music but probably female vocalist is my favorite.  Just found that Lady Blackbird Fix it from Munich show.  Nina Simone, Norah Jones, Sylvan Esso, Billie Eilish.  Lots of Miles Davis In A Silent Way, Herbie Hancock Head Hunters, Coltrane Love Supreme.  

Thank you!

My big bugaboo with Transparent is their price new, vs the hit you take should you try to sell them. I also have little respect for their 'Network' boxes. And, yes, I have owned Transparent speaker cables.

To me, the new cables from AQ by Garth Powell are unbelievably good.

The big question is how it will work with your equipment. I have no experience with D'Agostino, and limited experience with Wilson.

As @ghdprentice, you should have a dealer/s loan you a set to try out on your system.

One person I would recommend you PM is John Rutan (Audioconnection). Though he is a dealer, he offers free, and very good advice without trying to sell you something. (And, believe me, he is the only dealer I would recommend without pause, as he is knowledgeable and nice).
