[#1227] SMR vs OpusMM Dear all, As most of you are aware, there was a comparison done between Argento SMR and Transparent OpusMM. Both of them are 1.5m XLR interconnect used between the DAC (Burmester 970) and Preamp (FM 268). To some extent, OpusMM has a bit of advantage in terms of warming up because it has been run for quite some time prior to the test while SMR was disconnected from my system since 10pm the day before. Given the SMR is a silver interconnect, you may appreciate the time for it to warm up should not be undermined. I have taken some photos and will try to upload them to this thread later. Certainly I need some help with regard to what I need to do from the point of uploading from Memory stick. Back to the comparison, Andy is going to give his verdict later today and I just want to reflect on my personal views in order to give all of the interested parties here a 'Ho Oil' prior to the formal announcement. OpusMM, to me, is a sophisticatedly tuned cable which gives a very soothe and relaxed feeling when listening to it. It has good resolution, very dark background, good soundstaging, image definitions, etc. On the other hand, SMR has more dynamic headroom and transient. In terms of linearity, I think both OpusMM and VDM (Argento's previous flagship) has a common drawback, it is the inability to give an energetic midrange particularly on the mid to mid-bass attack. SMR remedies this area and as a result, some may feel that the soundstage is a bit deeper when using OpusMM while SMR is a bit forward. I reckon this is because the midrange is a bit 'close-in' for OpusMM and SMR is more balanced in this sense. Moreover, I could hear more texture and ambience delivered by SMR on vocals and cello. Bass dispersion is more natural in OpusMM and the quantity is better than the quality in relative terms but still it matches very well with the room acoustics and give the ample layering and variation on the lower octave. On the other hand, SMR seems a bit 'punchy' without much dispersion. This is not the case in my system and I believe certain room tuning in the host's place has to do with some absortion on the bass generated from SMR. This, by logical implication, makes me feel that OpusMM in my system would generate more bass than I certainly need. This is a speculation only. Having said that, OpusMM fits more in the host's system than SMR in this sense and that has gained it a lot of points because the bass helps a lot in terms of the width of the soundstage. Treble variation and extension is quite clear to me that SMR has an edge over OpusMM. OpusMM appears smoothened and romanticised in terms of treble presentation. To me, it is not subjective taste but it is a matter of whether the details can be presented and in that sense, I would say SMR is more revealing and neutral but OpusMM is a bit colorated in the high frequency compartment. There was also a comparison on Engima interconnect as an episode but I will leave it till later today. Marvel |
