I'm now a Cardas Woman. I used to be a Kimber gal


Well i was interested in the new Cardas Parsec. I bought one and went WOW! What have i been missing!
So then I bought another.. then went for the big one (seven meter pre to amp, big bucks)
Added a few more. Bought a used Golden Reference here to have for a tease..
So I went from Kimber all around to Cardas.
I liked Kimber, used them for-ever.. Nice, but this new Cardas Parsec has me. (Kimber has some catching up to do guys..) The Cardas is just more 'natural'.

This is like changing auto brand: Lifetime loyal BMW owner.. years of Beemers.. suddenly buys a Porshe! And LOVES it.

Some of them are still in shipment from Cardas. I am just so excited.

Wow Sunnyjim. I don't see Elizabeth doing anything but sharing her insight with us. She never talks down to anyone. She jokes with everyone but that is different. She has been very generous with sharing things that work and don't work for her. She has provided helpful advice for many people. What have you shared on this thread?
For, the record, I don't have cheap cables....the speaker cable is Audience 23
????? Must be a new hybrid, cross between Auditorium 23 and Audience Au24.
I agree with Sunnyjim that spending large dollars to gain small sonic benefits is questionable, but it essentially is a working definition of "audiophile". What I don't understand is why single out this thread, or Elizabeth as an example? In what appears to be a set system she tried something different and reported what she found, both positive and negative. I thank her for sharing her experiences.
Tls49..... Thank you for pointing out the error, the speaker cable is the Audience 24e, and the other interconnects are Nordost Norse 2

As I mentioned last time, the Audience speaker cable was a gift; and, the Nordost Norse 2 ICs were show demoes which I was able to buy at cost from a local dealer. Otherwise,I could never have been able to afford either. A very smooth and transparent sound. Unexpected interface with the AZ Adagios
I have two Tara One PC's that could be available if needed for your full Tara loom experiment when you guys get together.
