Cardas vs. Harmonic Technology


I am looking to replace the MIT speaker cable between my Audio research VT200 and my new Magnepan 3.7 speakers. Has anyone compared the Cardas Golden Reference cables to the Harmonic Technology Pro 9s? I have the Golden Reference interconnects throughout my system and was leaning that way but have not had the opportunity to audition the HT Pro 9s. I also use an ARC Ref 3, an Einstein Turntable Choice phono section (SE), and a VPI Classic with a Benz Micro Gullwing.

Thanks in advance.

I have Maggie 3.7s with HT pro 2009 se speaker cables. I use audience au24, HT magic link 2 and Cardas GR interconnects. The HT are better than Cardas GR in my system. More balanced top to bottom. I think GR is over-rated a bit albeit a great cable. My dealer has access to megabuck cables and apart from Tara labs zero and top of line synergistic research he says HT is a close second/third. I agree. It is more extended and detailed than the Cardas GR. good news is the Cardas GR and HT cables play well together. Not knocking GR just think HT is better.
Agree with Lissnr. I have had audiophile friends over who have 100k systems and left buying the pro 9 speaker cable.
