I posted something a few days ago about my reactions to the new Duelund 16g wire. After I was done listening to it, I sent my Duelund wire to a friend to try. He has not followed the comments on the internet about the Duelund and I didn't tell him what I thought of it other than I wasn't all that excited about it. So he tried it in his system for a few days in place of his regular Audio Note SPx silver speaker cable. His system is mostly DIY but very high quality---horn speakers with TAD woofers and compression drivers, driven by a SE amp.

After listening for a while, he put his Audio Note cable back in and then said in an email: "Wow, not even close. The AN are better in every aspect, including warmth and bass weight. One contrast that stood out was how homogenized the Duelunds sound in comparison to the AN."

What I find so interesting is that I also used the word "homogenizing" in my post. What I said was "By contrast the Duelund (with either the 8402 or the Eclipse interconnects) has a homogenizing effect; it obscures subtle differences in tonal color and dynamics."

Just another perspective. Each person has to make up his own mind.
