Zavfino ARCADIA MK2 vs FUSION MK2

Give them a solid 100hrs I would say. What are you connecting with these?

@behzad I have the Arcadia and they need some break in. Bass is boomy right out of the box and top end is soft. Give them at least between 50-100hrs of break in and they begin to improve. They will open up but I believe in general they’re are polite sounding cables with very nice soundstage. They don’t pretend to be what they’re not and that’s their advantage. 
If you do get around to trying the fusion please let us know how they’re different from the Arcadia. 

I had mine settle between DAC and pre just left it streaming 24/7. 
Using now on Sutherland phono stage. I like the Arcadia so far. Bit more speed and texture in bass and slightly more extention/air on top wouldn’t hurt but then we’re talking about cables costing 4-5 times or more. This is contrasting the Arcadia with my Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper. 
Next to AZ they’re great value but don’t expect them to sound like $2k-$3k interconnects. 
 

@curiousjim AQ Colorado was the other cable I considered. Never got around to trying it. I’m posting my updates and observations in the Zavfino thread
