arafiq - Glad you are enjoying the Clear Days. A couple of your comments really resonated with me...in particular "added more heft". That was exactly the reaction I had to the Clear Days...and for me that was probably the major change I noted. It was like the music put on 20 pounds of muscle. By the way, good to read you were playing Pasqua’s "The Antisocial Club". That is an excellent recording to begin with and wonderful music. Pleased someone else knows and likes it (well, I assume you do!).
Clear Day vs Acoustic Zen
As I mentioned in another thread, I am looking to make one or two upgrades to my system this year. Total budget is around $500 - 600. My current system is:
B&W CM10
Parasound A21
Cambridge Audio Azur 851D (preamp + DAC)
Cheap Audioquest wires (I think I paid around $50 for an 8 ft pair).
The two speaker cables that I've seen mentioned a lot here are Clear Day and Acoustic Zen Sartori. I almost pulled the plug on a pair of used AZ Sartori a week ago, but it was sold before I could make an offer.
There are other AZ Satoris on sale here at agon but they're all over 8 ft, which is not what I want.
However, I see that for the same $$$ for used AZs, I can get brand new Clear Day Double Shotguns.
Has anybody compared these two in their systems? Given that B&W is generally considered to be a tad bit on the bright side, I wonder if the silver in Clear Day might not be the best choice?
