My experience was polar opposite of what's said here, I have a complete loom of all matching Zero Gold series, including the power cable, the original cobalt with oyaida termination's, I have the best bass I've ever experienced, deep detailed, transient speed, with slam, impact, most of all, realism., I'm saying, you get the complete loom of the balanced 0.3, and the new cobalt Reference a/c power cable's, btw, I've heard, you will never have a lean sound, on any system.
