No one talks about Purist Audio Design cables.

Musaeus and HDI are such soft sounding cables, I have since stayed from the less expensive lines. I have Proteus and Dominus B interconnects now. Both are heavy cables which need strain relief for the jacks. The dominus is ridiculously unwieldy, very heavy and stiff. They sound more alike than I was expecting. The proteus is brighter ( as in the dominus is darker). It is also flatter with sound coming from the plane of the speakers and more sounds collapsing around the speakers. The dominus is more lush, set back behind the speakers and a bit larger sounding. I don’t have the sense of losing detail between one or the other. I will never sell the dominus. At just ~$1500 used and not readily found, it is perfect for me.

At least on forums I think Albert Porter and Romy the Cat popularized this brand, specifically the dominus. That is why people used to talk about them.

ohlala,

Did you compare old Dominus with newer Neptune ? Is your Dominus filled with fluid or Ferox ?

Old Dominus is almost impossible to find, either interconnects or speaker cables.

I got into Purist cables long ago from Romy the Cat, as mentioned by someone above. Great cables at the time but I've moved on over the years. I didn't even know they were still around. Now that I research it seems that opinions are more mixed on the newer models. Back in the day it was almost universal acclaim. 

Dominus fluid cable will remain a classic, and Colossus fluid was their best value cable.

Agree, I believe I had both of those at one point or another. Hard to remember as it has been a while.
