@Audiolabyrinth, have you heard Stealth Audio cables? Sakra, Indra, Dream? I ask because they share some similar sonic attributes with Tara Labs cables, IMHO.

Hi,

It's very interesting your experience and your future design. I wish good luck and all the best and hoping to listen yours.

Thanks and regards.

Just today, in a good friend's system, we compared side by side the following speaker cable: Purist Audio Aqueous Aureus Versus Nordost Tyr. I premise that such system was composed with all power cables Shunyata Anaconda and the Interconnet Purist Audio Design Purist Audio Aqueos Aureus. The Nordost Tyr resulted better in all regards, especially in rhythmic, higher resolution and definition, musicality with an extraordinary amount of details, excellent low-level ambience retrieval and harmonic extensions of their natural bass and midbass. Airy soundstage with seemingly limitless depth, perfect dimension and proportion of vocalist and acoustic instrument with no electronic texture. The sound is always alive, fullness and powerfull. Superb the realism with Nordost Tyr.

First I am not God, and second I am not Jesus. Not even by far. But information/details you can hear or miss them. This is that simple. It has nothing to do with a personal tast. How much depth there is in a system is something you can hear easily. With cables you can make it bigger or less deep and wide. Resolution and air is not the same as sharp focus of instruments. There can be a lot of detail and air but to point out were every instrument is can be quite dfficult. I hear now even instruments which I did not hear with the Valhalla. The reason is simple. My stage is wider and deeper. This makes it more easy to hear every part of the recording. Because of a sharper focus you can easily hear were every voice and instrument is during listening. This makes listening to music so much more fun. I had this conversations also with some musicians. They told the same story about sound and proportion. Monday I uppered to play live music again at audio shows. Some highend audioshops liked the idea a lot.
