On continued listening tonight I am really liking the Musaeus, and hoping from a Agoner conformation that the Venustas wont add brightness but will be more open and more resolving - or is there another PAD (below Venustas) that achieves this.
PAD Musaeus vs. Kimber Kable 8tc
I am auditioning some PAD Musaeus from thecableco.com to see if the can help tame the last bit of brightness left in my system. I have Thiel cs2.4, a Parasound A21 amp, and NAD M51 Pre/DAC and I currently use Kimber Kable 8tc, and I love how the system is sounding except for this last bit of brightness that pops up on various recordings evey now and then. I find the KK very open with good air, resoving detail and impact, at least compared to the Musaeus. I find the Musaeus tone more natural(warm?)and definately less bright but leaves a bit to be desired in the resolving aspect of the music. I was thinking of audtioning the PAD Venustas hoping that its tone is the same as the Musaeus but with more open, resolving character. Any opinions? I'm also considering the Kimber 12tc because I've heard it doesn't tilt twoards the highs as much as the 8tc, but I'd like to hear some thoughts on that as well.
