Purist Audio vs. Harmonic Technology


Hi,
I´m really interest on both brands. I have to buy balanced IC and the contenders are the Purist Arqueous Anniversay and the Harmonic Technology Magic Link II.
Both have excellent reviews and similar price.
Anyone could compare both or both brands (another models)
Thanks,
Carol

I disagree somewhat with String on his view point about ALL cables react differently........

I sent my GG Rapture cables to a 'Gon member and he described the Raptures to a tee when comparing it to his Jade Hybrid cable. He sent me his Jade first to try out and we both heard the same thing and we have different systems.

There are some members here (Tvad for one) that are very good at explaining the sound of different cables/tubes/speakers etc. that they have had in their systems.

There is some value in the many different Goners' ears when it comes to cable evaluation.

Hold steady Carol and someone will give you some info that will help you out.
I suppose if there was universal agreement on terms such as neutral, warm, etchy, bright, soft, etc. descriptions would be somewhat useful.

But everybody uses different cues based on their hearing to describe sonic characteristics.

Now toss in components which are undoubtedly unique to the listener's particular system and splash in some (or lack of) room acoustics and it's just about impossible for one person to understand another.

IMO of course
Thanks for the answers.
I understand that systems and rooms conditions are differents but I am interest on personals experiences and opinions.
Both represent excellent options for the money.
Unfortunally you have to try in your system to decide which one is better for you.
Good luck.
