Purist Audio Genesis SC vs PAD Museaus?

I own B&W 804S and McIntosh MC275 and was about to pull the trigger on PAD Museaus biwire speaker cables, and saw an add about the new PAD Genesis cables. Has anybody been able to listen to them and, better yet, compare them to Museaus?

BTW, my ICs are Museaus RCA.

Thanks!

No replies in 3 days. Really nobody has heard the PAD Genesis?

Just got a Genesis from the Cable Company and been listening to it over the weekend, it is a very nice sounding cable very open and fast as compared to the Musaeus.

Fuzzball, thanks for the comment. So you were able to try both Genesis and Museaus on the same system. Great!

help me understand cable terminology: open means it soundstages better, you better hear placement of instruments and separation between them?

fast refers to the bass only? Or it emphasizes mid/hi frequencies?

In which areas do you feel the Museaus is better?

Thanks!

Finally, someone who has tried Genesis. :) How smooth are they, particularly in the treble/upper frequencies? Do they produce a large 3 dimensional sound stage? I hear they are closer to the Aqueous than the Musaeus. Do you prefer them over the Musaeus? How do they compare to other speaker wire you have tried? (ie PAD Elementa, Analysis Plus Oval 9, other....) Thanks.
