Neotech UPOCC Silver Interconnects vs AZen


Has anyone had a chance to A-B Acoustic Zen Silver Ref 2 interconnects vs Neotech?

The latest offering from Neotech uses UPOCC Silver 7N. There are 2 versions NEI-1001 and NEI-1002. They also have a line one down which uses single crystal silver 5N. Has anyone tried any of these products

I own the Neotech NS-02525 which is now the ES-1002 = NS-02525. I upgraded to these cables from HMS speaker cables, it was a terrific upgrade on my system. These cables recently went head to head with some Nordost Heimdalls, I still have the neotech's as my main speaker cable and that is probably the last area I will ever look at for doing any tweaks or upgrades for the life of my system.

I was told that these OEM cables are the same ones marketed by other vendors, however, I have heard that neotech no longer sells OEM meterware cables.
