Stealth Vardrig Sextet vs. Purist Audio 20 Anniv

......looking to update my current digital cable set up as I currently have the Purist Audio 20th Anniversary cables in my system. These cable's will be going between an Esoteric DAC and transport. I listened to the Stealth's a while back and liked them. I do not have a chance to audition so my obvious question would be - would it be a sonic step up going to the Stealth's ???? The PAD's were no slouches.....your thoughts and thank you

Have not heard the PAD's, but have lived with the Sextet (XLR) for a few years through several DAC's and would not dream of changing them.You cannot go wrong, IMHO.

GAREBEAR,

First, the Sextet does nothing wrong; no aspect opf the frequency range is over or under-emphasized. The cable is neutral, transparent, lifelike and, most important to me, eminently "livable." By that I mean I have forgotten about it. Note this is the XLR version, running from my Bryston BDP-1 to PS Audio DSD DAC.

I also have a Kharma Grand Reference RCA running from CEC TL-1x CD transport to DAC. Excellent cable, with a touch of warmth.

Good luck.
