Comparisons of Audience and VH Flavor 1 PC's

Stiffness is an issue also. I found the Signal Cable to be too stiff for my CDP, putting the connection under strain in my rack.
How stiff are the VH and Audience cables in comparison?

I have Audience 24au power cords and interconnects very very flexible can't compare with VH don't own. If the Audience is laid back its still very detailed and I have a bright detailed system so it works for me. I need the warmth if that's what you mean. Otherwise they are up front with the big 400wpc mono blocks I use with them at least as far as far as I can tell. I have that are out there but and hurt with a modded ARC SP6 preamp. Vinyl is a bit quieter in all parameters.

I agree the Audience is very detailed and also very flexible. The VH Audio Flavor 4 is more stiff and may be hard to maneuver in a rack.

Mechans - yes I meant warm when I said laid back, which as I said is not a bad thing. I actually use the Audience on my transport. It just did not do as well on my DAC.

As we all know, everything is system dependent. YMMV

TVAD as you know I have two system, I compared them
both with my two system,I also think on both system,
the audience is way too musical and the VH is too dry
sounding IMS, the VH4 is well made though.But again
I encourage to try them both.
