I understand the question and the responses, but in reality, how could one ever know which cable is neutral? One takes a cable and inserts it in their system and it sounds "dark"compared to what we had, so we say that cable isn't neutral. But how do we know that the "dark" cable isn't passing the true sound and the one we thought was neutral was altering the signal to make it sound more... "neutral"? Yes, I know that Kubala and Cardas are generally thought of as warmer or darker-sounding than some others and will tame down a bright system somewhat. That said, my vote goes to Audience AU24 as a well-balanced and "neutral" cable. Near as I can figure.
