I've never heard the Master sound bright as Aolviero pointed out in his observations.The difference I heard was that the Revelation threw a massive soundfield that provides new information both in micro and macro dynamics.The Master provides you with no compression through very dynamic and complex passages, however, the Revelation gives you dynamics that are staggering both in power (vocals have a freedom of expression and power that is humbling to be hold)and bandwidth. Both of my friends run all Revelation with Gnsc Wadia's and all sistrums 101 stands , as well as Sim audio w-5 LEs.They also feel that the Revelation is cutting new ground in their systems,offering vast venues. The bass is very deep and articulate,double bass has a sonic wave that you can feel, both the instrument as well as the air surrounding the player. Every other cable I have heard has limited vocals, both in power and extension.The Rev gives you both the air around the singer, as well as a natural decay that a voice throws out into the soundfield.Complex passages are handled with aplomb, a hammond organ has the power to tear your head right off your shoulders without a hint of distortion being heard. A piano fortismo in Three Blind Mice will not change the air around a cymbal,the whole stage of musicians just plays on in their own time and space. I am at point with my system that it becomes rather difficult to explain how it sounds,when i try to listen in a critical way, I get swept away by the music and really don't care about the audiophile details. On the right recording and at the right time of night,I feel very thankful for what unfolds in front of me. It is a very emotional experience when your favourite music reaches a plateau that you never thought possible.In this way the Virtual Dynamic Revelation is truly a musical revelation of the highest order!!
