arafiq,
I have a Cullen Power Cord, Cross Over series, but customized for 10AWG for my Parasound A21.

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?

@arafiq - haha...I forgot that I'd posted about The Antisocial Club. I do tend to blab about the stuff I like mainly because it's great when something clicks for someone else. We'll try again here (even tho' it's not the topic of your post...but good test material, maybe). See if you like the Jazz Pistols. Superstring is their latest. Listening to Special Treatment courtesy of Tidal right now. Both are very good. Contemporary fusion from Germany with more of a rock tilt than that Pasqua. Excellent interesting music, great musicianship and recording quality. Their bass player is killer. BUT the one I really want to own is their "live". Ordered it from a Discogs seller in Netherlands. Hope it eventually gets here. Link to 'Bugs' from their "live" (also on Special Treatment). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qRym18h_74&ab_channel=ViantCadia91 |
