Listen to each one for a week straight.
I often read that humans have the sonic memory of a Goldfish, but then why can we recognize the sound of a persons voice (not seen/heard) for decades?

Advice needed: Have 2 Power Cables only need 1 - Which is better?
Hello All - I have 2 I think similar power cables for my Holo May KTE DAC. I’ve tried both and like both but am trying to understand which one if either is higher end. I believe they are BOTH versions of the Cardas Golden Reference Power Cord. One of them is Running Springs Audio Mongoose and the other looks like a later generation Golden Reference. Which would you keep? Any experience with both?
I've never compared power cords. I just plugged them all in. I can't say I've ever heard a big difference.
I don't have any real expensive cables. One by Crystal Clear Audio (Signature silver cable), some by Core Power Technologies, and some by XLO and Audioquest.
I suppose I should try comparing them some day. |
@audphile1 - Totally agree. I think my point which I could have stated better is that I'm "happy" with either but trying to determine if others have experience with both to make a "tie breaker" call. I think the Mongoose has a bit more ease/liquidity, but with some small sacrifice of detail from the Cardas Golden. Love them both and both better sadly than the newer Cardas cables at least to my DAC. |
