Cables for interconnect and speakers?


ideas as to what you like in the above subject? I have had very little experience with this subject, and understand that you can run the gamut. For an audio system with a good tube amplifier, turntable, speakers----total value approx 30,000 dollars--what moves you, and why?

FWIW I did buy another preamp an AE-3 for less than the Cardas and it made the whole system click, nirvana.
I had a very pure crisp "high definition" preamp (ARC) with tons of gain. I wanted a warmer sound going into my tube amps (Opera) which were already doing some of the taming down I wanted so I chose Cardas Golden Refs between the pre and my tubed mono blocks. Excellent choice if I do say so myself. I wanted a good copper cable for speaker cables and stumbled upon the Jena labs trio braid for sale. I had always admired them so I bought them without really knowing what impact they would have. As it turns out they are fairly neutral and convey detail nicely I am very pleased. I had no specific motivation but wanted to stay with high caliber (quality) copper.
