Cardas Neutral Reference vs AQ Caldera

I'm currently using vdH "The Wind" speaker cables and was wondering if the Cardas Neutral Reference or AudioQuest Caldera were worth auditioning. Rest of system: ARC LS16, ARC VT100 MkII, Magnepan, Classe digital. Anyone familiar with any of these high quality speaker cables? I will, of course, ultimately audition before deciding but just curious if others would care to share listening experiences.

Do you really think there's someone out there who keeps track of all your stuff?

Rigby- No I don't think so. However, it's sometimes helpful to know the system context. Most serious review articles list associated equipment for just this reason. If the rest of my gear was from RS, the question would be irrelevant.

JC, I also have the LS-16. All my cabling is Cardas Golden Hexlink 5C- rich, warm, huge soundstage- beautiful. Tried Neutral Ref- didn't like it- to lean IMO, but depends of course on type of 'sound' you are after. Good luck!
