Have you guys tried the Golden Reference? How does it compare to other cables you have tried?
Cardas spkr. cables: Quad vs. Cross vs. Golden Cr
For various reasons I've decided on getting a used pair of (bi-wire) Cardas speaker cables. I'm debating between the $$$ & sound trade offs of Quad, Cross, & Golden Cross (if I really stretch for the latter). So far the best speaker cables I've owned are DH Labs T14 (what I'm using now).
Rest of my system consists of ARC VT100 MK II, VTL pre-amp, CAL CL-25, & Rega P25. My speakers: well, right now I'm alternating between my B&W M802 S3's, & my Merlin TSM-M's......so I'd like to get cables that would sound great with either speakers, (while I decide which to keep in my main system), if that is possible.
I have a chance to get an almost new pair of Cardas Quad at a pretty good price right now.........wondering if I should go for it, or hold out for Cross or Golden Cross.
Any advice would be appreciated!
