!! Spoiler ALTERT – my conclusions on cables for my mastering use

First, i’m not affiliated to Vovox in any way, i paid all my cables and gear…
i choose to record via microphones as finally  it seems to me that it’s a way to share what happened in the room.
sure it might have been more accurate with a neuman binaural head, but i don’t have one, see, here is the best i could share.

to me the difference between sonorus and cordial are not very big, but there is a difference.
then the difference between Vovox Excelsus to the other cables is quite obvious even when listen via the microphone in this video.
So after saving money, i change most of the cables i could in the studio for vovox Excelsus, and i keep sonorus for less critical gear.
it cost money for sure, but to me if a gear (comp eq or whatever gear) produce the clarity and softness effect, after trying i might buy this gear.
sure it still seems not very logical cables make such a difference as they supose to just transport the signal from point A to point B without changing anything.
And to me it seems that it’s what the vovox Excelsus is doing, and it’s doing it better then others.

In the mastering chain, on one cable the difference isn’t very noticable, but when it’s all the chain it’s more obvious.
i might post recording i’ve made in the comming month.

thanks for reading.
best
Olivier
