I use Nirvana SX between my Dodson processor, and Cardas Golden Reference between my Mac C-2200 pre-amp and Conrad-Johnson Premier ll amp. This is the best combination I have found to go with my Genesis V speakers.
Tonality comparison: Cardas vs. Tara Labs
Can anyone help me understand the difference between the typical "house sound" of the Cardas lineup versus the Tara Labs lineup? What are the sonic differences and what are sonic similarities? I'm talking about the slightly better models from each lineup......i.e. Tara Labs Air 1 through 3 or the Cardas Cross, GC, GR, etc.
