Audio envy - dang!


I usually post on AG when I have an issue or concern, so I’m happy for once it’s to praise a new product, in this case Audio Envy’s IC. 

I use an ARC Classic 60 amp with a Herron 1A preamp. The AE cable went between these two.

I run an ARC Phono pre PH3se from my VPI prime as source.
My speakers are Thiel CS2.4’s

Out of the box a bit bright, But after a few hours that just went to strait up transparent - I mean freaking crystal clear. No tonal aberrations. Smooth, with no etched highs. Voices sound right, Natural. Soundstage opened up, as you might expect when things get clearer.

The best part was how inexpensive they were. They made my Cardas Clear Light interconnects I was using sound clouded by contrast. The Cardas was about x3 the cost of the AE’s.
BTW, this wasn’t “I think I hear differences”, this was “I’ll never use those Cardas in this system again, and where is my IPad, I need to order my next set!”

And that’s just what I did.

Here's a question that I've never seen answered: what's the difference between the O'nestian 4:3 and the O'nestian G:L? Both XLR ic's, and both same price.
I'm also curious about this.
They have slightly different voicing. One is not better than the other.  I have used 4:3 for almost two years between preamp and amp and as an AES cable so it's not just for phono cables but may just be what he recommends for that application.

I took a look at your system and see you have spent some time assembling a pretty amazing music maker.

If you don't mind, I'd like to hear about your experiences with Audio Envy. The pricing is quite reasonable and it would appear with gear of the quality you have you would have tried other cable by more well known makers at much higher pricing yet you use Audio Envy. If you'd share what different Audio Envy cables you've used and what you heard over the other cables that AE has replaced, that'd be really helpful.
