Master/Slave Link Summary

[Foggy916]

I am one of the rare ones that actually didn't like the Audioprana (seems a little too warm and not as lively as the Crystal).  Just not a good match with my system and personal preference.  It's only a couple days old so I'm still listening to it and giving it a chance to break in.  It's not bad, just not my cup of tea.  I'll give it another day or so and then probably list it here for sale.  By the way, the craftsmanship is top notch.....the wood version is beautiful.

I agree. I think it gets this soft touch in the sound particularly in the right channel (being driven by the slave) because of the organic wooden "sleeve" with the name Audioprana on it as well as because of the organic cotton shield of the cable that feels so nice and soft. This softens the sound also imo. Otherwise it's a good cable, though.

I also used a much less expensive entry level RCA to AES/Ebu cable (Monoprice) that also warmed things up.  Strange thing to me is that it seems to effect both channels.  Maybe the RCA to AES/EBU connection causes some of this warmth and not just the cable.  Again, this might be a good fit for someone but I just don't think it's working out for me.  I'm going to be putting my cable up for sale on the site shortly.
