Your welcome.Yes, system matching for ASI ...Big E,<br /><br />Your welcome.Yes, system matching for ASI is paramount importance. The difference in sound between ASI and Siltech is like night and day for me. But I am not implicating that Siltech is better than ASI. I too is a regular to CMY and I must say ASI matches well to their set up in OU.Hence, thats why I request for them to loan me the ASI cable as well.<br /><br />Oh, FYI, my set El Hefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273856156774204955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840837052157867513.post-53983223448491450682012-02-23T22:00:38.847+08:002012-02-23T22:00:38.847+08:00elhefe,
Nice of you to respond to our postings. R...elhefe,<br /><br />Nice of you to respond to our postings. Reviews are based around what we heard in the context of our own system, and reported with a pinch of our very own subjective sound bias included.<br /><br />The ASI cables seemed to work well in my warmish sounding system, but you may be right that in certain systems, such as yours, they may be too much of a good thing.

I was looking for an XLR digital cable to connect my CD transport to a DAC to make my whole system 'truly balanced' as I am already using XLR cable from DAc to amp.<br /><br />1 week usage of ASI XLR cable was not really entertaining to my ears.
