OVERVIEW
I am selling several genuine Cardas Audio Clear Interconnect cables, guaranteed to be 100% authentic. These are by far the best cables Cardas Audio has ever produced. I have owned Golden Reference, Golden Cross, and Ayre Signature (similar to Golden Ref), and the Clear are significantly better. Also, they have been compared favorably to the highly regarded Audioquest Wild Blue Yonder ($4200 per meter) and the Kubala-Sosna Elation ($6000 per meter) - please see review below.

I have 100's of very happy buyers! Thanks for your interest, Dave REVIEWS Below are excerpts from a comprehensive review on Soundstage.com:
".... the Clear’s greatest attribute was its enveloping, open, unrestricted musical
.... only AudioQuest’s Wild Blue Yonder [$4,200.00 per pair] and Kubala-Sosna’s Elation cables [$6,000.00 per meter] can match it
....achieving new levels of neutrality, extension, resolution, refinement, and (dare I say it) clarity
.... Cardas focused on matching the velocity of propagation (VPROP) of the solid conductor strands (effectively, the speed of light) to the VPROP of the solid dielectric materials (about 78% of the speed of light). A mismatch in VPROP creates a condition analogous to turbulence in a boat’s wake, and in audio cables results in a smearing of the signal and a loss of fine detail."
