Best cables for Thiel 2.3


I'm using Thiels 2.3 with Krell KAV 300i, and Rega CD player. Would like to get rid of the bright or harsh sound which comes through with some ( a lot) of my CD's. Now using Monster M 2.2 speaker cable with Audio Quest interconnects. Any ideas?

Don't really know how it would stack up against other quality gear, but I'm using the Homegrown Super Silver interconnects and Kimber Monocle XL speaker cabels (VTL preamp, Bryston amp, Thiel 2.3's) and am very pleased. Some have suggested that the Krell & Thiel combo can be predisposed to a little harshness, but I really can't speak to it. Others have suggested MIT as a good way to add a little taming to otherwise strident systems. In my experience, though, the Kimber and Kimber-clone-esque Homegrown gear has worked wonderfully with the Thiels. However, going all-silver with the interconnects might not work as well for you if you're trying to reign in an already unruly higher frequency range. There's been some talk about the KAV-Thiel combo recently, so poking around in some of the past posts might prove a little more useful that I can be. Either way, enjoy and good luck.
