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

The initial thread was titled "gold ic comparison" so technically the Gabriel may not belong in the discussion. There is a family of gold alloy cables where Gabriel probably belongs with others such as Siltech.

Milen007,
Are you sure it's the GG Rev that's "a bit of harsh" in your system? Have you replaced the GG to make sure the "harsh" isn't present without them?
The word "harsh" just doesn't fit my experience with the GG Rev cables.

Milen007,
Have you had your cables cooked? I have not but but I see that Steve is now recommending it. Perhaps we should both contact him to discuss this.

One thing to keep in mind when comparing these cables. The Antipodes and KCI Silkworm are gold cables while the Gabriel Revelation is an alloy of gold, silver and copper. I believe the Gabriel Rapture also has some platinum added to the mix.
