PureSilverSounds Quartets or HomegrownAudio Laces?

You can try the homegrown silver lace for 30 days. I have two pair on a tube system and they are not bright at all. I was using Goertz silver micropurls before and they were a big step up.

The PSS Octets and the HGA Silver Lace (refered to now as the Silver 16 on HGA website) are both good cables. I had used the Octets for about a year and just replaced them with the Silver Lace. I thought the Silver Lace were smoother without giving up any detail, had a more open midrange and fuller bottom end. The Silver Lace were not bright at all. The PSS sound was more lean with less bass and midrange so could be perceived as "bright" depending on the system. Homegrown Audio has a 30-day return policy and I am unaware of any "restocking" fees for returns. You may want to e-mail or call Paul or Kevin to find out.

I have a pair of the silver lace ic's. Although I haven't had the opportunity to audition anything other than the 15 year old monsters, I'm quite happy with the purchase. I'm connecting a panasonic a110 dvd player to a bryston b60 integrated with cdm1nt's & a velodyne sub. Next I'll upgrade to the homegrown speaker wire.

Thanx for the follow ups. I have decided to give the HGA Laces a good go and hopefully everything goes well. As for speaker cables, do you think Kimber 8TCs will outperform the Alphacore Goertz MI2 interms of Bass and imaging?
