Modern equivalent of Cardas Golden Cross

@retiredaudioguy I settled on Cardas Clear Reflection for all line level interconnects. Relatively transparent compared to the Reference, but still with a touch of warmth.

1) If I may ask, how long have the new Clear Refs been in place so far?  After 45 days of play, resting in place and not being touched at all, 2) will you report back if you hear any differences yet again compared to the first 24-48 hours of play time? If yes, what differences do you hear with clarity, depth, warmth, smoothness, if anything different at all?

I wont debate the reasoning any more with folks and simply reporting what you hear, and if you take notes along the way, even better.  Yes, I own three pairs of Clear Reflections and a prior owner of Three pairs of Golden Cross prior, among many others from Cardas over the last 3+ decades.  Thanks in advance.  Enjoy yours.  

They sounded great out of the box.  I don't think I listened critically for a while but after a week the sound was perhaps fuller, more relaxed, but a rather small change.  

The cables have been in place now for about 10 weeks but I have been swapping amplifiers, the cartridge and phono stage meanwhile, so I cannot comment on any cable "sound".

The sound of Cardas Clear Reflection I would characterize as "organic", it is more like music in a real space.

Akin to the change from the K-01XS to the K-01XDSE.

@retiredaudioguy  Great characterization of the sound of Clear Reflection cables as "organic" and "like music in a real space." Maybe that's why Angela Cardas prefers the CR cables to any of the other cables in the Cardas line. 

In my system, I've been very happy with both the Clear Reflection XLR interconnects and the CR speaker cables. 

Happy listening!
