Cardas Clear Beyond Interconnects ?


Any impression, review,etc. on these new cables?

I own two Clear Beyond Power cords for the Luxman 509u integrated amp and Accuphase DP700 SACD player, Clear Reflection XLR interconnects and a double run of old (but still good) Golden Reference speaker cables biwiring my B&W 803D’s, plus an old Golden Reference Power feeding the Goldnote Dumbo AC (the power filter dedicated to the digital source), while the Purepower 3000 feeding all system receives the dedicated power line (10 meters -I write from Italy- of 3x12AWG for hospital grade UPSs cable terminated with Oyaide C279) from the electric panel.

I am planning to replace the Reflection XLR with the new Beyond, and the G.R. Power for the AC filter with a Clear Power.

More extended, neutral and dynamic but still musical interconnects, and less bright/forward power cable should re-create the same balance, but a step "beyond" ;) .

I read from the Cardas website the new Beyond should be a musical cable with increased "slam" on low frequencies, instead of the too resolving, light character of the old Clear, still the Rev.1, I never liked; maybe Beyond is a more extended Reflection than an improved Clear, who knows?!

@jgladden36 have you tried the scenario of using Clear Reflection ICs for both of you your sources (DAC and Phono) upstream, and then a Clear Rev1 -or- Clear Beyond IC downstream between your Holo Serene preamp to your AHB2 amplifier?

I’m doing something similar putting the more transparent cables further down in the chain. I’ve tried this with my Cardas, Analysis Plus, and Apature cables. Works wells too if there is a way to test and try it.  

 

 

I also use Cardas Clear Beyond XLR between my Aqua Formula xHD DAC and my Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 integrated amp and Clear Beyond SC to my Thiel CS 3.7s speakers.

I've demoed several top notch cables in my system and in the end Clear Beyond were the ones that worked best for my system.
