sound difference MIT ORACLE AC1 vs ELROD vs PURIST

We have similar systems, mine is DMA 360's, BADA, MIT Oracle Matrix and MA-X digital, Sasha's. I like the AC1 but overall I preferred the Acoustic Revive Power Reference. The MIT filtered cables can sound compressed just a bit to me, especially on amps but even on digital gear. I actually preferred the Z3 to the networked AC cables but the Acoustic Revive sound much more natural, organic and are near as quiet. I had one Elrod, forget which, and found it a bit dark. I have not heard the PAD. The only other I liked near as much as the AR would be the Shunyata CX series or the Nordost Valhalla (a tad bright).
