VenHaus Pulsar™ interconnects

Any high end glare has left the Pulsars after about 72 hours of continuous burn-in using a Purist Audio Design System Enhancer disc.

For what it's worth, I've had two pair of the Pulsars (RCAs) for a little over two months and struggled a bit early on with the top end as well. I don't have a cable burner so I just left the ICs on the system using tuner or XLO burn-in disk (putting the amp in standby when I did).

For me, it took well past 200 hours for the top-end to settle in. But once they did, WOW - they are truely exceptional! Clean, balanced, neutral from top to bottom! I find the music just more engaging. Do they do a better job of PRAT or are they just getting out of the way and letting the equipment do it's best? Beats me but whatever they do, it's definitely working for me! I'm keeping them and now burning in one of Chris's Flavor 4 PCs.

Yup, they do take a very long time to break in (300-400 hrs). But they are the most balanced ic I have had in my system (I have had products from AZ, Cardas, Nordost, WireWorld, Argent Audio, Coincident, Empirical Audio, Kimber, Purist Audio, Audience, and others that I can't remember right now).

I also use Chris' Flavor 4 w/ gold option power cords (on my Rowland 201 amps).

On top of the incredible value for the money, Chris is great to deal with and his customer service is some of the best on the business.

Couldn't be happier!!

As I've posted on this thread a couple times, these Pulsars are special for all the reasons mentioned here. I'm going on 7 months now with mine and I'm glad to see positive press for Chris and his products.

I've been burning my Pulsars for about 130 hours now with half of the burn-in done with the Purist Audio burn-in disc. At this point, an A/B comparison with Audience Au24 is interesting. The Pulsars go deeper without question, and they seem to play louder? I'm not expert enough to explain why they seem to play louder. Someone may exposse this for a flaw...I don't know.

The Audience Au24 cables have a clear advantage in the imaging department: focused, clear and free of upper end glare. The Pulsars give the illusion of wider soundstage, but I wonder if this is due to some smearing in the mids.

The Audience Au24 interconnects are non-fatiguing, whereas at this point of burn-in, the Pulsars grow annoying after an hour and a half or so.

The Pulsars are a terrific value, no doubt, but at this point in time, I'd keep the Audience Au24 if I was forced to choose.
