Any new users of the Audience

This reviewer from 10 Audio gave the new AU24 "e" speaker cables the first 10+ rating of anything which he has ever reviewed.

I tried the original AU24 speaker cables out a few years ago on a completely different system from what I currently own and found them in my system to be a tad too warm for my tastes, but maybe this new "e" series might be worth a try.

Thanks Sherod, I found the description in the "selection" class. I would have expected it to be front and center in the Au24 product description. It would also appear that they will continue to produce the old Au24 and the newer Au24 "e".

Yes, I agree that you would think that Audience would be promoting more this new "e"(enhancement) technology. They are doing some serious advertising for their new Auricap T teflon cap, however.

I believe that is because from what I've heard the Auricap is taking a beating in the marketplace from the V-cap. The V-cap seems to have replaced Black Gate as THE capacitor.

If your into DIY, Audience sells their Auric hook-up wire in two guages. I've had good results with this wire. Based on the description of the wire inside the AU24, it appears to be very similiar to the hook-up wire. BTW, I am currently using some AuraT teflon caps and have a very positive opinion of them.

John,
The poly Auricap version is what the V-cap was originally competeing with. This new Auricap-T is a new teflon cap to compete with the V-cap. I'd be interested in a head-to-head competition with these two teflons in various circuit locations. I have also experimented with the Auric hook-up wire and it is very good.
