I don't know how to start. Fortunately/Unfortunately the Clear Days are really on the neutral side. Just because they are "silvers" does not mean they will sound sharp. Try the Nordost Blue Heavens. When I demoed them in my system years back, they were on the cool side of neutral.
The Clear Days are really very good cables and a lot of bang for buck.
So, Paul is back and making his cables again. Good to know that. How do you like the Clear Days with your Quad and rest of the system? When I had the Quads, they made a big difference. Would definitely like to see your system pics.
Jmlab926, I have been using the Quad 21L for the past 8 years. I was floored when I heard the Quad 12L, that were not on my list of speakers to audition. The bass on Quad is not going to bring the walls down, but it more than sufficient for the room I use them in. It's their transparency that struck me. I had auditioned the Totems, Dynaudios, Paradigms, etc up to the $2K price range and these (12L) were the best. Since I was looking for floor standers, I looked up some reviews and discussed with the "then current" owners and finalized my decision. I would like to hear some user reviews on the new 23L and 25L.
