Cardas vs. Harmonic Technology

I am looking to replace the MIT speaker cable between my Audio research VT200 and my new Magnepan 3.7 speakers. Has anyone compared the Cardas Golden Reference cables to the Harmonic Technology Pro 9s? I have the Golden Reference interconnects throughout my system and was leaning that way but have not had the opportunity to audition the HT Pro 9s. I also use an ARC Ref 3, an Einstein Turntable Choice phono section (SE), and a VPI Classic with a Benz Micro Gullwing.

Thanks in advance.

Agree with Lissnr. I have had audiophile friends over who have 100k systems and left buying the pro 9 speaker cable.

I have had experience with both of these brands in my system and for what it is worth found Cardas to lean towards rich and warm and HT to give a brighter leaner sound.

Thanks to everyone. I ordered a pair of the HT Pro 9's yesterday. My system has enough warmth already and the Pro 9's should provide the acuity and liveliness I am looking for. I do like the Cardas GR interconnects but it seems the speaker cables need a little push in another direction.

Thanks again.
