Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam ,

@ jmcgrogan2, what do you mean I do not have the zero thru out, I do!, the omega gold speaker cables are the matching cables for the zero gold I/C, I'm done!, I only use one i/c and 1 pair of speaker cables, thats the beauty of it all!, yes, I do not have the matching a/c power cord yet, which is the Tara cabolt a/c power cord, I assure you it is coming home!, other than that, this is a full loom!,, ok john, thanks for being up-front with me, you are right!, you like what you like, I am sorry,you know me by now! I always get excited!, I use all my experience to help people the best I can!, you are correct!, that seems to not always work I see!, I have tried so many cables out there and listened to a ton of them!, I will say that Taralabs is most defiantly one of a hand full of brands out there that is the best available!, you would have to prove to me other wise!, so many have tried!, with no success!,, cheers!

I thought you were using a The One, but I guess that's in another system. So you do have all the same brand, but Pops, Waxwaves and I didn't. I think you just claimed The Two was a bad choice because it didn't work for me. You have to admit that The Two SHOULD have been better than the Air 1.

Tara Labs IS one of a hand full of the best brands available, but just like the rest, they have their plusses and minuses. There is no perfect cable, speaker, amp, preamp, cartridge, turntable, CDP....well you get the idea. It's all about the synergy dude. The fact that Tara Labs didn't work full bloom in my system is not an insult to Tara Labs....they are simply human, like all other cable manufacturers. Don't take it so personally. :)

@ jmcgrogan2, I agree with you totally, There is no best cable, I do think there is a small group of particular brands that is the best to me!, purist audio is in that group too!I do not take Taralabs full loom not satiesfying you personal john, and yes, we all know that all cables,models, are all about synergy,,, some people find a great synergy!, I did'nt realize how blessed those people may be!,, It does seem dificult to get ones sound to be outstanding for all that hears it,LOL!,, especially for yourself!, that might be the o.c.d. that resides in all of us!, my biggest caveat is that this hobby cost so damn much!,you may have more since than me john!, I live and breath high end audio!, atleast you have family balance of your sons, you know, the graduation and all,, your hobby does not suck all your money like mine does, I know its my own fault!, and my decision!, Its the only way I can build a world class system!, then when I am done, I will take a break!, and just enjoy the music for a while!,,,, Happy listening!

@Audiolab, It took me a long time, and personal issues to help me get my priorities in order. I spent many years doing what you are doing now, chasing the absolute sound. How do you think I wound up with a system costing well over $100K??

Health problems and job loss helped me to put this hobby in it's proper perspective in the grand scheme of life, as a fun hobby, not an absolute purpose in life. Funny thing is, if it wasn't for those hurdles in life that I tripped over, I would probably still be chasing the ever elusive absolute sound. Attaining true happiness is all a state of mind. You will always have those thoughts of "if I can just get to this place, I will stop and be happy". Funny thing is, when you finally get there, you always see something else that you feel will make you even happier. It never ends...the merry-go-round never stops. LOL!!

Jmcgrogan2, I'm sympathetic with you but think it is over the top to reach your conclusion. This last weekend a friend and I spent about five hours with three Acoustic Energizers and four StillPoints Ultra Fives seeking the benefits of these when strategically placed. Last evening we sat down and thoroughly enjoyed the realism we had achieved.

The quest continues with much enjoyment as the merry-go-round does stop and we will have to get off.
