Alternative to Tellurium Q Silver Diamond XLR

Hi I am looking for a cheaper alternative to the Tellurium Q Silver Diamond XLR with the same performance (-:
The Tellurium is just an amazing cable but to expensive for me. I am having on loan and it just checks all the boxes.
So did you own the cable and replaced with something else that was lower priced?

That's a lot of money.  A lot of great high-end cables are made in Denmark.  Maybe one of those?  Zensati, Argento maybe? Very expensive over here but perhaps more reasonable over there. A 1m Argento IC is like $5500 over here last time I looked.

In my system Wireworld Platinum series 8 is very close, with the Tellurium being slightly more detailed.

Wywires Platinum ? It has a very balanced open and elegant sound.
They are now on sale directly from Wywires, 40% off.
Yes, I use it on my main source.

Why would you ever do a home audition of a cable you know you can't afford. It's like test driving a car you can't afford. Just a great way to torture yourself. 

Either save for it or just let it go and be happy with a lesser cable..You wil never really truly remember the exact sound of the Silver Diamond once it's gone. Just hard to let it go, but that pain will subside.
