Kubala Emotion vs MIT Oracle V4/ V3 speaker cables Hi, I chose the AU24SX because I thought they just sounded better. To me, the Emotions were a bit 'dark' or less resolving on the high end. I bought a full loom of the AU24SX. I guess you could say the Emotions were fuller balance and more mea... | |
