Transparent XL speaker cable Gen 5 FS

[GuillaumeB]

Sorry to hear that you are leaving the Transparent camp!
I'm an XL MM2 owner, tweaked to match Dev/Magico S5s. Over the years I've had Transparent, then MIT, then Synergistic and now back to Transparent (also dabbled with Cardas and Siltech).

All great wires but I do like the solidity and soundstaging of Transparent and the unforced but detailed top end. They are truly great cables, expensive to buy into but you get 70% of your investment back if you move up a model or upgrade to newer version. You may not believe that a wire can influence things, but I've heard enough to be a believer. Must be these big network boxes - which are a pain in the ass when you stub your big toe on them! Trial and error to get the right system matching is key.

Hope you find your ideal cable - remember that the Devs and the Sashas will not appreciate bell wire!

Cheers Kevin. In truth these cables are exceptional. They are also super quiet in the sense that detail improved over my previous reference, the Chord Sarums. Stuff that I just hadn't noticed before was allowed to come out. But it's that Transparent sound which is lovely, there is no doubt that the network boxes impart their own magic on the sound. The top end is fully extended but never really harsh. And of course bass is absolutely solid and fully fleshed out.

So someone is going to be VERY happy with these, no doubt about it.
