Purist Audio Colossus speaker cables... wow

Just inserted a pair of Purist Audio Colossus speaker cables into my system and I must say that they are quite impressive. Dimensionality and tonal colors are wonderful. I'm surprised a bit by the change. At the moment, I'm only using an integrated Marantz amp powering a pair of Kharma Ceramique 1.0 speakers and fed via an Audio Aero Capitole Mk 24/192 CD Player. Can't wait to hear these cables with my Atma-Sphere MA1 MkII.2 amps (one sent to A-S for minor repair). Oh, previous speaker cable was Synergistic Designer Ref .5.

Now I'm curious about the Interconnect... anyone have experience with the PAD interconnects? Thanks!! BTW, I'll give more detailed feedback when I get a little time. Thanks in advance for the info!!

Hee,

My understanding is, a simple change of connectors will mate the Venustas to either 120 or 240. Safest route would be to order the correct version from Purist.

I've converted several Dominus power cords back and fourth between 120 and 240. Requires basic tools a VOM and understanding of how the 240 circuit works. I refer to an electrical contractors book published by General Electric to keep me straight on grounds and phase.

Since I used to use them, I can say the Colossus are excellent cables. It pays to make comparisons, though.

If you think the Colossus is good you should listen to the Venustas. I had a Colossus biwire for three years and then switched to the Museaus toward the end of last year. Now I have the Venustas and I have to say it is by far the best speaker cable I have ever heard.
