Audiolabyrinth,
Regarding your comment: “everyone has to know that the Grandmaster is NOT for most system's,it is for system's that is capable to allow the Grandmaster perform to full potential.” I am not sure if that was directed at the Audio Exotics system that was used for the comparison between the Tara Labs GME and the Vertere Acoustics HB cables.
Well, I am not sure if you have been following AE. They pursue the best sounding gears irrespective of cost - most of their components are cost-no-object designs, and they call a spade a spade, no buls--tting. If you are inclined to know more about them, just talk to Miguel of Tripoint Audio.
Below are some of the components in the AE system. If these are not the best or some of the best in the world to allow the Tara Labs GME cables to perform to their full potential, then I don't know what you are up to.
