Speaker sensitivity is 88db @ 8 ohms. The Aethos doesn’t appear to enjoy lower impedance loads. Since the speakers are modified, a mismatch between the amp and speakers may be afoot. The SVS may be dipping into lower impedance at certain frequencies. The integrated may lack the ability to provide the juice.
Advice for RCA Interconnect Upgrade?
Hey Guys,
Kinda new here and first time asking for advice. Thinking about upgrading RCA interconnects between DAC and Int. amp..
Currently using CHORD Clearway 1M. This is my system:
REGA Aethos integrated amp. (no XLR )
Jay's Audio CD Transport
Denafrip's Pontus II DAC
SVS Ultra Towers (highly modified)
Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables
Using an app on my iphone, the response has peak db from 4k to 5k. I would prefer to tame that a bit.
Of course I have power chord and AC line upgrades and such but I hope this is a good starting point for your help.
Thanks, Lawrence From MI
