I just replaced my 352 with a new 402 and am using the Cardas Golden Reference. I had used a Harmonic tech Pro AC for a few years before that and I really beleive that I gained in two areas 1)a more "black" sound in the quiet transients and 2)i feel that I have a more dynamic response or maybe a better description is a more effortless presentation. You can find them here on AG used for that 300 price point and can probably always recoup your investment if you decide to sell. One other suggestion is contact usedcable.com about thier lending library and try a few different cables. I must add that I have Cardas GR throught my system except speaker cables. And the improvement I experienced may have been derived from system synergy.
