Favorite sounding interconnects?


There are so many brands and models of interconnects at so many different prices. What have you heard that has just blown you away, and why?

If you remember the system you heard them with (including your own -of course), and the type of terminations and length of cable with anything else that you would like to bring out would be most informative. Thanks in advance for sharing!

To save on space, read my preamble to your question about speaker cables. Most of my comments -- and philosophy -- about speaker wire also applies to interconnects. Way too much snake oil and mumbo-jumbo passing for empirical evidence. For my money, the various models of interconnects being sold by HomeGrownAudio are among the best on the market today, AND they are quite reasonably priced (as wire products go). They also pass one of the most important strictures that doctors must abide by when treating patients: first, do no harm. Over the past 6 months, I re-wired my entire audio / HT system, replacing my AudioQuest cables with HomeGrownAudio Super Silver and Silver Lace IC's. Been VERY pleased, and it didn't cost the king's ransom. The Silver Lace DIY kit, for example, costs $140. In my opinion, there is NOTHING that competes with it at that price. I can only say that in my system, the HGA cables sound great -- in other words, they have nearly no sound of their own that I can identify.
