In Reply to: VH Audio AirSine connectors: a note and a question - long posted by classfolkphile on January 23, 2006 at 15:43:46:
....that the rhodium-over-silver connectors portray a more-forward presentation than the others. In my experience, the soundstage itself is shallow versus the deep and wide one presented by the direct gold and palladium-over-gold units. I would think that this would be consistent in comparison with the Furutech gold....and similar in presentation to the Furutech rhodium. I would bet, however, that the Oyaide will offer more clarity than their Furutech counterparts.I've not found the direct gold to have any "glare" when in contact with silver, unless the silver connectors don't have enough conditioning time on them (this is a separate subject with which we can discuss privately). Usually the direct gold 'softens' an otherwise bright presentation.
All the postings about Chris' Airsine report its neutrality....therefore, the connectors used have a big impact on the overall presentation. No doubt Duster can elaborate more about the Oyaide in direct comparison to the Furutech.
