I took my Acoustic Zen cables over to a friends who was using Transparent Refrence. The Zen cables were much better all around, the Transparent was comprable in the bass only. His system sounded dull and lifeless with Transparent and really came to life with the Zen wires. The Zen wires retail for about 1/5 the price of the Transparent. My friend put his Transparent up for sale the next day.
