One issue to remember is that the Zu cables benefit greatly from "burn in" of at least 100 hours. I have used And greatly enjoyed the Libtec cables for a few years, and recently tried the Mission SC and now the Event SC. The Mission initially supplied a little more base and general weight to the presentation compared to my Libtecs. The Libtecs seem to excel at an open soundstage with pristine highs, but be a little lighter on the lower registers in my system. I eventually removed the Missions and placed the Libtecs back in the system because some of the detail and air I liked was lost in the "extra weight" they brought. The Events arrived recently and are like a nice combination of the Libtec and Mission. There is better bass extension and weight compared to the Libtecs with no loss of detail and nice balance across the spectrum. They seem to be continuing to break in because the openness and detail continue to improve as my other Zu cables have done during their break in periods. My other cables presently are Zu Mother PC, and Zu Wylde IC.
