i just love these.. i know these are very colored, not neutral. but it's sound is so addictive. i have cardas rca's, not XLR, but in every system=amp=cd/tt/dac, it's the same addictive cardas sound. love the sennheiser he60 - sony cdp/s3000 combo with these. emt 930 original caps has got that berlin techno sound. iow very fast sound, loves cardas.the cardas makes the sound a bit slower but more warm and addictive. iow for very fast combo's, eg electrostats it's great ok, must admit always wanted to know the signature siltech series. but different price range. but when you can get the cardas golden reference for 200-300 euro 0.5m not new, you should consider. these cables will make you smile..
You are correct they are coloured, I like neutrality. I tried Cardas Golden Reference when I was upgrading my cable between my tonearm and phonostage, did not like them. I compared the Cardas Golden Reference (Around £750) to Furutech AG-12 (around £400) the Furutech killed them.
750 is too much it's 200-300 2nd hand. and you need very fast audio setup to balance the color. sometimes detail and mathematical isn't all. the cardas gives soul in setups which are too much cool. so, it's in electrostats and other high freq setups. after listening for a couple of hours. you can use them jds labs atom + khadas tone board. it has more detail and smooths everything, no youtube internet high spikes. which sucks big time.. it's like a 18 year macallan. everything is good and smooth.. it's not next level, but it has detail, it has high-low range, its warm and smooth and addictive. it's for the long 100 hour sessions. these are the best cables for 200-300 euro 2nd hand so, jds labs atom khadas thone board cardas gold ref cables =18 years macallan whisky setup
Go and listen to Spectral Audio, then come back and talk to me about speed. Spectral Audio is fast when the music calls for it, basically it delivers what the music calls for. I use Spectral Audio Pre / Power Amp. By the way I don’t want artificial colour in my music, I want the music to sound like it is without having the equipment adding it’s on signature to my music.
