Gold interconnect comparison help

This is a repeatition from my threat at ac forum. any one tried kci silkworms, gabriel gold revelation, jade vermeil gold, antipodes gold or other gold base interconnect? how do you compare them? which one is better in your opinion and why? i would like to tame by abit bright systems. you can use GG rev as reference as i have one

Not to start war or something, i just need some comparison the cables, as i do not have the pleasure to be able to try cables and have the money back guarantees offers. i live in Asia and shipping the package back and forth would cost fortune. thx

Revelation = "to reveal,to remove the veil."
essentially hearing what's there for better or worse.
Got a system or a room problem you may just hear it now!
these cables are not tone controls.

any comments from Revelation MK 2 owners? as the Revelation is no longer current.
It's suppose to be much better and closer to the sound of the Rapture.
Milen from the description posted it sounds to me like the
Gabriel Gold Intuition might be more what you need.
The description makes it sound like it's a little warmed over.The KCI Silkworm is also another good choice.
Louder volume issues sound more like a room problem,have you tried or do you use any room treatment?

rja-you are correct.The Revelations are a Gold alloy with with silver and copper in the mix and a thick 24k gold plating.
Based on the description of the Revelation MK 2 and Rapture ,I don't think either of them use any copper at all.

rja I stand corrected according to Steve there is still a small amount of copper in the mix with the Gabriel Rapture and Revelation MK 2 but the percentages of Gold and Silver differ plus some platinum is added

You were correct

just got a pair a Gabriel Gold Intuition interconnects
I was bidding on the Revelation MK 2 but lost out.
The Intuition cables are really nice. My gut feeling leaves me thinking that they are even better than the original Revelation.The Intuition got a big warm stage with all the detail and bass that the Revelation had.member Glory's opinion that the Revelation MK 2 is many steps up from the original Revelation may just be on the money.If the Intuition is this good I have to check out the MK 2's for myself.

"I have the Rev. MK2 and I will tell you it is many steps up from the first version. I don't know what Steve did to it but it is worth seeking out."

is many steps up 10% ????

10% in audio math must equal it easily sounds a lot better and it's worth it.
