Echole vs Argento vs Kubala-Sosna?


Can anyone compare the sonic characteristics of Echole Obsession vs Argento Serenity vs Kubala-Sosna Emotion interconnects and/or speaker cables?

Thanks

As the US distributor of SINE cables, I just discovered this thread.

The SINE "Coliseum" speaker cables and "Ella" interconnect are part of the ultra high-performance series of silver based products that feature 6N silver, carbon powder to absorb micro-vibrations & totally deep cryoed. The "Coliseum" AC cord's carbon powder also absorbs the in-line AC noise.

The top line "Kosmos" series feature a custom silver alloy that offers higher conductivity than even silver. Eight processing steps alternating annealing & deep cryo to achieve this highest of conductivity!

Sonically, the Kosmos offers the highest levels of transparency, resolution & dynamics but a liquid tonality that is so unique. Simply the best cables I have ever heard - breathtaking!

Some guys in the Audioexotics forum compared the Siltech G7 with the cheap Argento Organic interconnect (1/4th of the price of the Argento Flow). The results are shocking if you take into account the price difference between the Organic and the Siltech.
I guess if they are right then the Argento Flow should easily outperform the Siltech G7

The site pointed seems to be exclusive, controlled, and looked to be very strictly minded--not so much of an open forum as this. They happen to carry/sell the Argento line too don't they? Fun read, but I would dig elsewhere for more balanced infos/thoughts, or best--to compare the said cables yourself in your system.

I had in mine, tested and preferred the G7 King over the friend's loaner FMR (which he replaced with Siltech EC). Friend's system is Goldmund Telos5000 driving Kharma Grand Exq. In my case, I have only compared the speaker cables and not the ic or pc yet. Having said that, FMR is an outstanding cable too (and so is the Omega Gold btw.) which we fully believe can truly shine in different set-ups. It's just that with our's, we ultimately felt the Siltech evokes our emotion more.
Bvdiman Siltech G7 Royal Signature experience mirror to what I heard. Its very hard to not impressed by its performance. I also have audition Argento Flow, they have very different sonic palette and not as the same tier than G7. The Dutch cable is really complete sounding.
Sebastian, I will have to agree with you also in that Argento do have this rather 'different sonic palette'. I've known and used for a while actually, the Argento cables from way back 15-16 years ago. Looked similar (pearlish white) but with 6 or 8 (forgot) individually insulated soft strands intertwined loosely per side for their speaker cables. Can't remember name, but it was their top cable then. Smooth, mellow, relaxing but rather vague--were what I remembered them to be. Good match with digital stuff during that period.

I swapped them for the flat Siltech FT12 then which I felt to offer greater palpability ie. denser, more solid, organic and life-like timbre with much better control down low and everywhere else. Of course they have both come a long way since then, but I believe/hear designers from both brands still kept consistent with their ideal sound goal/design approach until today, albeit both much improved--you just cannot mistake one from the other.

Maybe the 6moons review below can better express and give a glimpse of what I too felt during my recent speaker cable comparison between the Argento FMR and Siltech King, which to a certain extent--rather similar.
