Any ic/speaker cable suggestion Tyler Linbrook


I have the Linbrook Signature (2 piece system) and currently using Analysis Plus Oval 8 speaker cable and Solo crystal ic. It felt like the sound is just too warm for my taste. The bass is there but i cannot appreciate the mids/highs, it felt like its missing. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

My system:
Blue Circle BC3000 MKII preamp
Consonance Droplet CD player
H20 S250 (Signature)

Thanks for the reply newbee. I did try using Kimber Select KS 3033 and Zu cable Varial ic (in which i have for my second system Ah Njoe and VS VR2) with great success. I then reorganize my system when we moved to a new house thats why i bought the Analysis Plus because of their price and great review, but i cant seem to get the same result with kimber and zu cable combo. I did break in the cable probably a thousand hrs of playing. As for the droplet, believe what Srajan wrote in his 6moon review, its right on the spot. (I think he used Zu cable in his review).
Bartokfan,

Check H20 website, iceh2oaudio.com and 6moon review.The BC3000 is an excellent combo with the H20 because the H20 has a low input impedance, just a thought if you are considering this amp. I found something interesting today. I borrowed my friends AP Oval 9 and used an Au24 jumper for the monitor part of the speaker and used AP Oval 8 for the bass module (its like biwiring but using 2 different wire) and totally eliminated the DH labs jumper that was sent with the speaker, and now im in total music nirvana. The highs and mids are now silky sweet and to die for, and now i have unbelievable bass extension, soundstage is huge . I started to listen to my CDs again. Im happy and proud owner to have this excellent speakers. Happy listening!
Maybe when funds is not tight i would definitely try different cable. I emailed used cable and recommended some cables, and bottom line it looks like Cardas Golden Reference is the logical choice. Muralman, Blue Circle preamp is an excellent choice for the H20, if im not mistaken its output impedance is 180 ohms, mated perfectly when using the balance input which is 16kOhms. As a side note, i would like to try Henrys Fire preamp, any specs?
