Argent Pursang - Your input, please....
I am that forum member and one of these days I will get Eric to try the Pursang and not all the other "expensive" cables/ic's on his list.As I currently have a pair of Satori speaker cable along with my Pursang, I wouldn't say that the AZ is bette...

Which cable are better - Jaden or Bogden Audio?
Raimund,I directly compared the Bogdan ICS with Silver Bullet Plugs to the Jaden Signature and it really was no contest. The Bogdan (by comparison) was grainy, unrefined, less musical, and lacking in the frequency extremes.The Jaden Signature is t... 
Empirical????????
Hi,Just received his Holophonic-PC single ended ic's. I am letting them break in for a 3 days before giving them a serious listening. I will directly compare them to AZ Silver Reference Mk II and Coincident CST. Let you know in a few days.George
