Nordost Tyr vs Audience Au24e


Is there anyone who had a chance to compare those cables? Especially IC's. I know that both are fast, detailed with lots of air. What im interested in is which of those two gives more body to the sound. I use a Cardas right now and would like to switch to something more detailed and fast without being edgy and lean. Is this a way to go?

What i really love in Cardas is timbre. The resolution is crap, rolled of highs and muddy bas. I would like to have the best of both worlds without me having to rob a bank. I don't know if it is possible, but heard much about Au24s and Tyr not being lean or harsh and still delivering all details in music.I know that It's down to my ears, but Audience cables are hard to get in my area and I want to know if it's worth some extra effort to get them for an audition.

My friends say "just go with MIT", but i would have to sell my kidney to get those... ;-)
I would like to try Nordost 2 series, but I usually buy used gear. If I go with Tyr, i might get a new one since there are sales of the old series with good prices. I tried the Frey. The detail and speed was breathtaking, it wasn't bright or sharp at all, but in my system it sounded a bit lean. Frey with a bit more body to the sound would be perfect! I heard that Tyr is a more analog-like and fuller sounding. Any suggestions on what other stuff I should audition would be much appreciated guys.
Yesterday i connected Tyr to my equipment. Comparing to Frey it's a whole different beast! It has much more weight and is really smooth. I sounds more analog-like to me. I was searching for something that will give me the best of Frey and my Cardas Golden Presence and I think that Tyr ticks all the right boxes! Great cable!
