Elrod vs electra glide?

Ozzy's got some good points here.

And yes - the Elrods are a similar ribbon conductor design as the E'Glides. David Elrod used to work for/with Scott Hall.

I own several of each brand, running an EPS-3 Sig on my BPT line conditioner and Mini Khan Plus on 3 different monoblock amps. But, I haven't compared other cords on the amps, so Ozzy and Bigkidz would have a better perspective on that.

I have both brands of cords and find the Elrods have greater clarity than the EG equivalents, which are fine in their own right but tend to smooth out the sound a bit. And David Elrod is one of the finest people to deal with I have encountered in over 30 years in this mania.

Neal,

But which EG's and Elrod's?

Are you comparing apples to apples?

I have read in numerous posts that the newest top-of-the-line EG's (mini_Khan Plus, Ultra Khan, Epiphany, X, etc.)are are much more transparent and not as warm as the top-of-the-line Elrod's.

I hesitate to even mention, much less recommend, EG's because of Scott Hall's miserable reputation, but I have his cables and I find them to be excellent.

Using Electraglides on front end for best transparency and sense of openness; using Elrods from wall to conditioner and from conditioner to amps for body, power and full-range dynamics. This combination works very well in my system.

From a customer service perspective, David Elrod is as good as it gets and will bend over backwards to be helpful. A truly great guy to work with. I would just call him and ask your questions.
