Nordost vs. Transparent...which is better?


Is one company much better than the other? Which do you recommend with a McIntosh tube integrated MA2275, Mac SACD player, and Sonus Faber Guareri speakers? thank you

A very logical response from Mrtennis which pretty much sums it all.

There seem to be a consensus everywhere on the brightness of Nordost that it's thin and edgy, and I cannot agree more on Mikelavigne on his comments that they are revealing the system's character than the cable itself. I own the Nordost Frey interconnect and having just recently upgraded from Blue Heaven speaker cable to SPM, I didn't find Nordost to be bright but instead very resolving. And just a note, my speakers are neutral-sounding while electronics are a tad to the warmer side of things which may explain the excellent results I've got with Nordost.
