Hi all,
Guess it's time I showed up.... I have owned and used the transparent cast when I used KCT, FPB-750MCX monos and it was OK IMO but then I switched to the Nordost MMF cast, everything speeded up in a good way. I took a gamble on the SR cast buying blind and to be honest, I was very disappointed with it at 1st as it just sounded way too harsh high up the frequency which made vocals screamed at you. I called SR ( Elliot) for the reason and was told that the SR cast is basically a raw cable unlike all of their cables would have had about 300 hrs of burn in as they cannot do so with the Nemo connectors.
I then played music constantly for 48 hrs and to my surprise, the cable settled a bit and most of the harshness had gone. Within another week, I compared it to the Nordost again and in my opinion, the SR cast is much more musical without loosing any speed or timing. the comparisions were done with my EVO-202 and EVO-1 monos.
Hope this helps.
