    hello george, i have the straley reality cables. the elf's do not have the solid bass of the straleys but there might be a little bit more detail in the upper midrange/lower treble with the elfs but a little hard to tell as the added bass of the straleys may be covering some of its details. i am looking for something to replace the straleys, the elfs are the 18 ga. version and i didn't want to spend any more money to exchange them for the 16 ga, version. i started a thread asking straley owners what they replaced them with. and most went to jps or harmonic technology both big jumps in cost. the elfs are good cables (biased) they did well on my tube amps.
