Sonically -Cardas the difference between the CLEAR Loudspeaker cable ,and CLEAR BEYOND


I got a very good deal on the Cardas Clear Beyond XLRs and they are very good , I feel the INTERCONNECT is more important if I had to make a choice between Loudspeaker cable and interconnect  coming from your sourse, Thst being said 

the Cardas clear beyond has 2 x as many conductors  a n 8 gauge vs 5 gauge 

has anyone ever compared the CLEAR  vs Clear BEYOND  Loudspeaker cable .

i can get the CLEAR for 60% off as a demo pair , how much better is the clear beyond  on the SPEAKER end since I have their  top clear beyond for the interconnects. Thanks much  in advance.

While I can't speak specifically in regard to Clear and Clear Beyond, I did extensive demo's of all manner of cables over many years through lending library at CableCompany. This with mid/high tier to near top of line from so many brands, AC, IC, speaker, digital. So what do I end up with after so many years of cable auditions, good old Cardas Golden Reference have remained my workhorse cable for IC and speaker cables, can't go wrong with a nice balanced  sounding cable, there are more spectacular sounding cables, but you end up changing them out all the time due to other changes in system. Here is involved discussion in regard to Cardas from WBF, https://www.whatsbestforum.com/threads/cardas-audio-cables.29157/
