MIT cables vs. Synergistic Research cables?


Cable hunting again. Has anyone ever compared MIT to Synergistic Research interconnects and speaker cable? Whats the difference in sound? Is one more laid back then the other? I was told MIT doesn't have the detail that SR has. Any comments?

I'm hoping the shotgun series has improved in two years. My S3 were blown away by the Goertz MI2 and Dynamic Design cables. The S3 had an upper tilted midrange that sounded strange when I done a side by side comparison and this was on my Belles and Vandersteen system. I'm trying them again since the majority of Avalon guys are using MIT.
Remember the obvious, the cables are passing on what's before and after plus the room is 75% of what you hear. I have had several reference systems made up of state of the art components, in rooms I thought were excellent acoustically, that turned out to still have challenges beyond the wires. In other words, a cable change (or more)is not going to solve problems or anomalies inherent to the system. Some cables will lessen the extent to which said anomalies are intruding, but the problem remains. Music should be dynamic, bold and palpable with clarity and accurate tonality. MIT allows this and does it in a 3 dimensional soundscape with a neutral yet musical flare. The older stuff could sound a little fuzzy or lacking in air, but as for a midrange bump or aggressiveness? Methinks that is a system thing.
The anomalies were I believe the MIT cables since removing them solved the problem. I believe, now that MIT has no critical circuits in the path that can add to these strange anomalies but we'll see.
For the level of equipment you own you should be looking at least at Shotgun MA or Magnum range. Try all MIT to assess it properly ie both interconnect and speaker cable.
Good luck.
I never did mention the equipment I have and perhaps that will make a difference, so here goes:
Martin Logan SL3's with new planners (for lack of a better word)
Rouge Audio 18o monoblocks
Rouge Audio Athena Preamp
Rel Strata 2 subwolfer
Sony XA5400ES SACD/CD great bargin
Pro-ject RPM 9 TT
George Wright WPP200 phono amp
Dynavector DV 20 high output MC

I have mostly Synergistic cables. I hope this helps.
