Straight Wire Crescendo 3

[Elijah1]

I’m curious if anyone has tried this interconnect? It’s kind of nostalgic for me. I remember the first time I heard a real high end system was when I was in college and the shop had B&W 801s (series N) hooked up to what at the time seemed insanely large speaker wires and interconnects. From the moment I hear the system, I was hooked. I’ve built a system I’m really happy with, but still think about those enormously thick interconnects. I think they’d look really neat coming out of the top of my ZP3 phono preamp. But I’m concerned about what it would do to my system's sound. Currently using DH Labs cables throughout, and really only thinking about changing the cable going from my ZP3 to my preamp. Well, unless I’m just blown away with them, then I’d consider doing the whole loom. Any insight would be great, thanks.

I had a full loom of Crescendo 1, with 10 m interconnects 25 years ago, a little bit of a midbass hump and a little reserved in the treble, good sound for digital back then. The last 15 years i have been using Crescendo 2 and find it more neutral, i would like to hear impressions of difference between 2 and 3.
