Pure Note Cerulean

How do the Cerulean compare to the Epsilon XLR's?

I have decided to take plunge, replacing all my transparent interconnects as well as transparent ultra xl cables for center and fronts. Expect to receive on Friday and will let people know how they sound once they settle in.

Interested in your review. They blow away the Epsilons IMO.

Sonic Genius' Reference Stereo System a/o February 2004:

Martin-Logan Prodigy speakers.
Krell FPB400cX power amp. Modified with IEC power inlet.
Krell KCT preamp.
Sony SCD-1 SACD player.

Sutherland PHD phono preamp (battery).
VPI TNT-HR-X turntable, JMW 12.5 tonearm.
Grado Statement phono cartridge.

Pure Note Cerulean Cables interconnects and speaker cables.

Sonic_g,
Are you also using the PNs between your VPI and Sutherland? (RCAs, I would guess.)

What have you found to be the biggest difference between the Epsilons and Ceruleans in general?

I have all Epsilon 4s in my system except speaker wire, VPI-to-Ono and digital cable. (I have an 8 meter run of PNs between the pre and amps).

Thanks for your consideration.

I originally used the Siltech VPI-Sutherland connection, now the Cerulean which is very detailed and musical. Epsilon Ref. did not work well here.

The Epsilon Refs V4 were very good cables until I heard the Ceruleans. There is no comparison IMO. The Cereulean sounds like a different cable, like the difference between live and recorderd music. I wish Pure Note had made the Cereuleans first but I guess that is progress.

Pure Note tells me the Cereulean cables were developed in-house and is a complete departure from the Epsilon.
