So YOU can't hear a difference in cables

I do.

I have a set of Van Den Hul the Seconds They get rid of the digtal glare and edge. They are non fatiguing to listen to.
They sound full and lush but give up some detail and soundstage. I can listen to them indefinitely.

My Au24's are more holographic, have better soundstage, detail in spades, but there is that digital edge and glare.

My silver interconnects sound good but tizzy on the top end. They are out.

Day in and day out give me the Van Den Hul the Seconds, no fatigue, but oh I want the detail and soundstage of the AU24's.

If you suffer from that digital glare or edge get the vandys.

I find that the louder the music the more that the cables matter. I find that cables "tune the sound".

Anyone have a suggestion for an interconnect that fits my bill at a reasonable price?

Sogood51,

I have been waiting to hear some user feedback on this design. It got poo-pahed pretty badly when I sought comment at the Cable Asylum. Of course, nobody had heard it at that point, but that didn't matter since apparently the design alone was worthy of the slight in their minds.

BEL-The Wire, general I/C connections, digital, it doesn't matter, about $200.00 meter pair. Ever seen anybody complain about them?

If you find AU24 edgy you have a problem somewhere else. Either your speakers or one of your components is bright and is where you should focus your efforts. If you would list your system maybe we can give some guidance.

I completely agree Zilla. I have VDH the first and I give up detail to get a softer sound that is actually lush. I have Analysis Plus (coper) cables and they have much more detial and trasparency (they are also more expensive). But they are revealing and somewhat harder "digital" sounding.
