SuperConductor 3 Cables?

Forgot to mention when I auditioned the SC3's I was comparing to Nordost Frey and Vahalla. I also brought them over to my local Nordost dealers system so I did compare them in two different rooms and systems. Again it was only the lowest of the low notes was the muddy/thumpy sound heard. Because of that I decided on the Frey's.

I tried them as part of a multicable shootout when I was recabling my system. They are very good sounding cables but a bit etched for my tastes and too difficult to work with in my application--very stiff and unwieldy. In the end I found that Emperical Design offered IC and Power cables that were very nearly as good for a LOT less money and Dynamic Design speaker cables that were better sounding and much easier to work with. Just my experience with my system and room.

I am going to compare the SuperConductor 3 vs the Kubala Sosna Fascination or maybe the Expression. I have been using the SuperConductor + (about 14 years)so I haven't really experimented too much with cables lately. Will be an interesting comparison. I just ordered a pair of Magnepan 20.7's to replace my 3.6's and I need to move to single wire runs for the speaker cables (using bi-wires on the 3.6's). I have heard that the Kubala are excellent but run a tab bit to the warm/romantic side of neutral, which may be just fine for my rig. My preamp is a Hovland HP 100 (tube) and I am using Cary 500 MB (SS).

Have you done thecompare yet?

The Kubala cables arrive today. I have the JPS and Fusion Audio now. I will update this posting with my impressions sometime next week.
