Best Interconnects

I recently put a preamp into my system instead of feeding my Wadia 781i directly into my power amps. Which by the way was a significant improvement. I am now looking for the best interconnect between my Wadia and my SMC-VRE 1 preamp. I am considering Stealth Sakra, Cardas Clear, Kubala Sosna Elation, Tara Labs Zero Gold. Preamp to power amp is Tara Labs Zero Onyx. It is very difficult to evaluate all these cables especially over extended break in periods. Does anyone have experience with several of these cables or similar. Your advice and input would be highly appreciated.

Best Regards

You are running balanced, aren't you? The 781i is truly balanced and your preamp has balanced inputs. Wadia told me that I should run balanced if at all possible.

What did you find with the preamp that you didn't have running straight into your amp? People say that it's because you can run the wadia at 100 (full open), but the dip switches inside the unit can be set to run the Wadia at an optimal 75-100. I haven't tried a preamp, so I'm curious.
