MIT cables vs. Synergistic Research cables?

I was a fan of MIT for 10+ years but found out after extensive test that they were choking my system. They are a Hi-fi sounding cable in my opinion.

I've owned a TON of cables, including SR stuff (even Tesla series). I found the Synergistic cables to be one of the few cables that overtly influenced the sound of my system(s)...and not in a good way. The sonic signature was unnaturally smooth, slightly devoid of color and lacking the energy and "aliveness" (or presence if you will) of other cables, like MIT. MIT cables are so far beyond conventional cabling technology, that a comparison is almost laughable. MIT will allow an in home trial for YOU to decide for yourself. Even MIT's entry level AVT series destroys most of the competition. MIT's are dynamic, open, textured, holographic and full of energy and presence...the music comes alive in your room! SR is more cult than science. You can bake it, fry it, purify it or even pray over it, but wire is still wire...unless you address the real world issues a musical signal confronts when passing from one component to another. MIT has the Patents and the experience and the home trial...you be the judge:O)

I'm going to give MIT one more try. Have some S1.3 coming next week to compare with my Morrow MA4/SP4. I'll let you know which one I keep!

Dear Wig...I already know which cables you will keep:O) If you got them from Joe, say high for me:O) MIT...where the music comes alive!

Wig, I will be very curious to hear your take in your system because I agree with your statement above. I own and have owned many variants of both IC's and speaker cables for years and I just don't quite get what Dave hears. Although, I have no experience with more recent models he is referring to. Over the years I spent the most time with 350 series - reference and EVO Shotgun IC's and several models of SC including Oracle V3 and Magnum M2.

My complaint is the lack of midrange texture in the old reference series, the 330's had that but lacked the dynamics and detail.

The other problem for me at least is the expense of MIT - for the same money depending on the level of entry, I can upgrade a tonearm and/or cartridge.
