First off, your system and your ears are what matters. Try before you buy and stop trying to outsmart everyone...it is way to variable to use isolated objective parameters of a cable as a definitive solution. As for all the arguments regarding cables are cables...for the most part, they are often more similar than different but not without discernable performance variations. For this reason I tried both Transparent cables and MIT many years ago to hear what a “ more than just cable” design could offer. MIT has been the clearly superior performer for my ears, especially with their more recent offerings. Once you hear what they can do in a properly matched system, it is virtually impossible to do without them!
