Long XLR's: PAD Venustas versus Mogami


Does anyone have experience with changing a long Mogami interconnect with something like PAD Venustas? I'm wondering what the gains would be.

I'm currently auditioning PAD speaker cables (Proteus Provectus actually) and like them. I've read a lot about the PAD lineup, but don't know what the Mogami characteristics are (I don't have a 40' cable of something else to swap it with :-))

Thanks in advance.

Next time "refuse that" and you won't have to appologize.
I have another Purist cable that once was full and now empty. With everything else remaining the same, the sound is worse in every respect.
Also, some people on this forum appear to be unable to actually hear anything.
I can confirm that fluid in PAD cables makes a difference. I had Maximus interconnect that was 2/3 empty, sent it to Purist, got it back refilled, and now it sounds better. They cleaned the connectors too, and possibly did something else as well - I don't know.
Purist cables are great, just need some care every ten years or so.
Boston Audio makes graphite/steel tune blocks to be used under spiked speakers. Anyone tried this?
