Nordost Red Down or Zu Wax


Hi,

Has anyone compared Nordost Red Down with Zu Wax? I'd like to upgrade my present SC and I've got opportunity to buy both. Unfortunately I can't try them before buying.
Have you got any experience with them?

I have:
Roksan Caspian M1 CD
Roksan Caspian M1 Amp
IC: Straight Wire Serenade
SC: Real Cable BM250T
Speakers: Harpia Acoustics Amstaff Mini

"I took them apart to see what they were made of and there are nothing more than 4 common electrical wires of different gauges for plus and minus, braided."

SHOCKING! Zu cables contain only electrical wires! ;-)

Truthfully, I have been running Zu Ibis cables for several years and I have absolutely no desire to upgrade them. Deep bass, crystalline highs, sweet mids. I upgraded from the Zu Julians and there was a very clear improvement, especially in the highs. I also use their Varial ICs and am very satisfied with them as well.
Personally, I don't believe in the Zu, I believe in my ears. I couldn't care less what their marketing hype says, I love how the Ibis cables sound.

Don't get all bent out of shape over here, we're just having some fun with you. You have to admit it was humorous.
