RE: Pinging Tangram _ Jon L.

Hello People,

I haven't posted recently. I have lived with the Nearost silver for two months on al my components, but I found my system sounded a bit choked. The silver foil on everyconductor did make my system very quiet and I also heard less distortion. But cymbals didn't decay very well.

I went back to Ramm Amadeus 5. Bigger soundbubble, less choking at the expanse of the ultimate black backdrop. But the decay of cymbals (and other sounds) is more natural.

The Neardost would be perfect for me if 1) the silver foil would be thinner 2) instead of 1 conductor of 16 awg, it would be like the Ramm 6 x 20 AWG silver plated OCC conductors. 3) the microfilament would be thicker around the conductor. (more seperation)

Still a good cable for the money, but the Ramm is better.
