Ridge Street Audio MSE Gen.ll speaker cable
All I can say is that on my soild state and tube system there is no comparison what so ever. The MSE Gen. II surpasses the Cardas in every way. The music also sounds more live like, as in a live performance.

My Jolida JD100 mod VS Music Hall CD25 mod
I think what you hear is the difference between a moded SS (vs) a moded tube product. I don't think using different tubes will make a huge difference since the Jolida comes with upgraded NOS tubes. I'd be interested in what others more knowledgabl...
