Harmonic Technologies VS AudioTruth Diam

I have both of these, the HT is borrowed and needs to go back soon. The Diamond x3 is a half meter, the Silway 2 is one meter. Both are RCA. The MIT 330 Shotgun is better overall than both. That said, the Diamond is faster everywhere, with a touch of grain in the presence region of the treble. It is more tonally neutral than the Silway, but leading edge transients are almost hyped, where the Silway's are more natural. The Silway has a huge spectral hole in the midrange, but has smoother timbre in the presence region. The Diamond has more air in the treble, but not a lot more. Bass is slower, but more dynamic with the Silway. If you could describe the bass of these two using a speaker analogy, the Diamond would be faster and more dynamic than a full range electrostatic. The Silway would be like the bass of the Wilson Watt Puppy. If your system is forward in the midrange, the Silway 2 is the interconnect for you.

Read the reviews,there are alot of them.The overall opinion of the seasoned reviewers is the Silways are the best or as good as the best, period. I have none of the negative sonics from these I.C.s that Carl describes.My opinion these I.C.s are amazing sounding.

wow. Thanks for the advice Carl and David. I actually ordered a pair of HT .5m prosilways from Ambrosia. He had a pair of .5m diamonds on consignment, so for $270 he is sending me both cables to try out...return the ones that I don't want. He said that they are supposed to arrive in 2 weeks because the HT guys will have to make the .5m special, for him. Please tell me where I can get cable reviews...better if off the web. I subscribe to Stereophile, but I usually only see cable reviews in the reccomended components listings. David. How much did you pay for yours. I don't want to call Toys from the Attic if I am not ready to buy. Carl. To get a better feel for where you are coming from, have you heard the Kimber kcag's. I got them used and decided that they had to go. Glaring. thanks

I used to have the Kimber Silver Streak. It lacked the dynamics of most other interconnects, and was somewhat soft with transient attack. The treble was a little rolled off, and the midrange was a little noisy; bass also lacked extension, slam, and pitch definition. I've not heard KCAG. An acquaintance of mine sold his $2000 Kimber Select interconnect, and thought the HT Silway was better (it might be, I don't know). Many reviewers are running around like rabid goats touting the Silway, it's pretty funny to watch. I've tried it against the following interconnects directly, and stand by my assertion that it is very laid back in the midrange (that doesn't mean it won't be great in the right context, though)...also several manufacturers I've spoken with feel the same way about it, so what I've heard isn't an anomaly, IMHO: Straight Wire Solo, AudioQuest Quartz, AudioTruth Lapis and Diamond, Cardas Neutral Reference, Tranparent Ultra, Transparent Reference (new version), MIT 330 Shotgun, MIT 350 Reference, and MIT 350 Shotgun EVO (easily the best in the world). Two more that I'd like to try are Straightwire Crescendo and the new Cardas Golden Reference. I don't expect either to measure up to the EVO, though. And I got it used for only $795 ($3100), so it is just amazing!!

FOR REVIEWS you can use your search engine or go to the web page audioreview.com or the H.T. site has reviews.You must remember the MK2 are quite new.Some of the reviews are for the MK1 which is also considered to be as good as the best.Also the H.T. Truthlink is said to outperform mostI.C.s I cant tell you what I paid for my Proslways.But I can tell you I couldnt have gotten them cheaper used. Call Mario 914-421- 0069 Tell him were buds and he will take good care of you.e is an awesome guy and the best dealer in audio land!!!!
