Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable.


This is the new Purist tonearm cable. I have the Venustas for the moment, I love it, maybe a little treble shy. The Proteus Provectus interconnect is phenomenal, so an advice from users of this new tonearmcable is welcome before upgrading.
It is a pure copper fluid shielded cable, if as good as the IC cable, then it is THE tonearmcable to beat.

With great products it is often a love or hate story. I love Purist, the sound they make puts a smile on my face and toe tapping. I enjoy more the music and that's what this whole passion is about. And I feel it is closer to real performance than any other cable. Matter of taste, anyway...
Jfrech, your first impressions seem to be very positive, and I am sure that upgrading from Venustas to Proteus must be as big improvement as upgrading from a very good cartridge to a top flight cartridge. I am very impatient to read your objective report after cable burnin ( approx 150 hours ).
Hit the painful point, Sirspeedy ! I knew that my speakers where rolled off in high frequencies and that Magico Mini are a solution to this, so if Venustas are awesome on your friend system, I just have to sell my car to buy them !!!
Please compare apples with apples. We are comparing different products of the same brand. I am not willing to compare a Ferrari with a Honda Civic, both great cars but for different situations!
Audiofeil, I just realised that you are selling these cables and give rave review of them on your ad here in Audiogon ??? Do you sell also HD TV's ? :-)
Does Purist have an upgrade marketing policy, swapping for example Venustas for Provectus, having to pay just the price difference between them, or if I make the upgrade I have to sell my Venustas myself ? My dealer does not do it, because it has DIN connection and he says it is difficult to resale. Same in US ?
Thank you everyone for your answers. I will stay with my Venustas for the moment. You are right, this is a very expensive upgrade.
