I understand   // I hope that clear day is leaner than t14   in my system


I am breaking in the clear day to see that if it is neutral //   silver is not equal to

brightness


let me wait for a while

I got the cable yesterday  and it is being broken in


my Mimetism  15.2 is on the warm side so I decide to try the silver cable


I used to use dhlabs t14 with audioquest z plug which is good for the price

by the way I do not have a music room as I am living in a apt

please comment if you have used the quad 21/22/23 L

jmlab926

Owner
the quad is more transparent than the profile 908
everything being constant except the speaker?????

jmlab926

Owner
the jmlab is more neutral while the quad is a bit warm

but the system is pretty neutral due to the t14 sp cable

which has a silver plated copper conductor

I still prefer the music is on the warm side of neutral
it is a matter of taste

quad naturally has more bass than the jmlab but the bass is on the lean side which is not my cup of tea

Owner
downsize and downgrade??
