VenHaus Pulsar™ interconnects

Some of you seem to think that there can be a "best" interconnect. There can't be. There isn't an interconnect made that can act as a perfect link / impedance transformer between the multitudes of different input and output impedances that each different combo of gear presents. When you realize that, you'll be a lot better off, both system-wise and financially.

Now if all gear had the same nominal input & output impedances, that would be a different story. By this, i mean that either the input impedance was identical to the output impedance ( how it should be ) OR that the input impedance on all gear was a set value and the output impedance on all gear was a set value. In either case, you could design a cable to work with those specifics, but until that is the case, interconnects will remain a matter of guesswork due to the individual component to component interphase and personal preferences.

Yes, I use the balanced Pulsars (in fact, I am the one that begged Chris to make them in the first place).

They are much more primarily b/c the xlr connectors are very expensive (Furutech Rhodium are $150/pair and you obviously need 2 pairs per set of ic's). Additionally, it is a double run of wire.

How long is really long? Just contact Chris and see what he can do for you.

Well said Tvad. I am still stunned at the performance/value ratio on the Pulsar.

Although I do think there is some value in giving details such as which is more dynamic, better HF extension, etc... IF it is done on the proper context.

If you say how each compared in your own system, that can help a person get an idea of the "flavor" of each ic/cable.
