Hi guys, happy new year to all Thiel lovers. Today the Audionet dealer is coming to my place to demo the Audionet Max monoblocks and preamp in my system. This is going to be interesting to hear how my Diablo 300 compares to the Audionet separate...

Next  week i should be able to borrow Cardas, Wireworld and Kimber Kable speaker cables. Also hope to try Tellurium Q Black Diamond and a French brand called Odeion cables. Will keep you guys posted.   @tonywinga  Nice suggestion of music, i l... 
XLR cable with warmth without losing resolution
I'm going to demo Cardas Clear Reflection ICs and SCs as they are supposed to be the best balance between warm organic and still good resolution. My Thiel CS 3.7s tend to be bright with silver cabling therefore in really need to try other cables....

@sdl4  Thanks i red the Steve Huff review, very interesting. Seems that the CR are the more engaging and organic sounding Cardas cables of the lineup. Would be interesting to make a shootout between the CR and the Clear Beyond.

My present 3.7s are SN 1285-1286, i think they were produced in 2011. This is my second pair of 3.7s as i owned a pair with much lower SN numbers from 2014 to 2019.

@ydjames  Thanks for sharing mate, since you have the same COAX as me don't you have any glare in the trebel region since you have silver in your Tellurium Q cables ? The Statement are copper only therefore they should be very smooth and musical....
