Neither in my opinion Jazzhead (I must say though, I haven't heard Purist Audio in some time). I would like to try Nordost Odin -- but it's not a necessary objective at this point. Which is a good thing for the wallet.

So, getting to your post, the Wireworld Platinum, after thoroughly being cooked in & then some are the most neutral & transparent cables I have owned. They are designed with no signature in mind & in saying that do not add any distortions, or colorations which therefore allow you to concentrate on your sources & muisc thru the speakers.

Their soundstage offered is deep, wide, precise & organized to where it's not a hodge-podge of musical notes between two speakers or two walls -- I find myself pulled into the performance moreso than sitting there concentrating & disecting the minute details of the music because the dynamics of these cables allow those details to come thru so naturally & with incredible ease.

Hope my brief explanation helps answer your questions.

Best

Bob
