Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?

Any comparisons of old Designers Ref with new Tesla Line?

I used to have a Tesla accelerator IC and thinking of going back to SR cables as I liked the air, naturalness and deep soundstage. However the pricing on the Tesla cables is more than I want to spend again and wonder how the less costly to buy used Designers Reference compares.

Dlcockrum, can you explain "gray sound and irritating over time" which you described the Accelerators. I am hoping to go back to SR and can't figure out which IC to get.

I actually had the Accelerators a year ago and wonder how much better the Absolute Ref or Precision Ref is and considering uping my budget for one of those two(if I could ever get a deal around 1k).

Unfortunately the Cable Company does not allow trials to Canada.

I had a deal to buy a pair of older Resolution Refs when someone else here suggested I might like them if budget was a concern, but the seller backed out last minute with cold feet shipping to Canada.

I put an offer on the Absolute Reference being sold here on Agon by a dealer but got a very strange email back regarding pimping (his wording).

So I guess I will just wait for now until something comes up.

I have read the posts in past and can't really recall that much discussion about the gray inference hence why I asked and started thinking that maybe I would like the Absolutes better. Strangely though not as many owners with comments about the Absolute Refs compared to Accelerator, Precision or Apex.

Shellie thanks for the comparison with the old line.

Whoops, meant Acoustic Ref not Absolute Refs in my post a couple back questioning relatively less opinions on it in comparison to the other Tesla cables.
