Cardas vs Cardas vs Shunyata interconnects


Got a pile of interconnects cables today from Cable Company to try, focusing on between my DAC (Weiss) and pre (Mc c2300)—SF Amati Tradition speakers with MC601s. Base cables mid level Wireworld.

Contenders

- Cardas Clear Cygnus

- Cardas Clear Reflection 

- Shunyata Venom 

- Shunyata Venom X

First in was Cygnus. I was immediately floored. Loved everything about it—feeling so engaged with music. Amazingly dynamic and tight bass response. Every song I played was just amazing.

After an hour I was itching to try the Reflection expecting great things. Nope. Dull and woolly. I love warm, but perhaps this was too much of a good thing. After two songs I was back to the Cygnus. 

Sticking with the Cygnus tonight.

Shunyata will be up tomorrow and I’ll report back.

......you can definitely find outstanding interconnects that outperform those overpriced interconnects from resellers.

How hard is it for @classicrockfan to understand if this were true we all would be doing it. 

Oh and I write posts on this forum not for elon musk but for audio enthusiasts....

A real audio enthusiast (audiophile) actually listens to components and makes up their own mind, and will not be brainwashed into deciding there is no sonic difference by people who claim there are "tests" that can tell us how they sound, because these tests do not exist. 

But please, feel free to keep on babbling, as it has no effect on all the intelligent people in this forum.
