I went with quite a few Audio Horizon IC cables. I love them. I went with all top of the line and had some custom split cables made as well. I had some difficulty getting exactly what I ordered but they were terrific in getting the right stuff out to me asap and very cool about payments.I believe a great value.If you look on some old threads you will see my listing asking people the very same question as you have. Good luck. ken
Help w/cables for ss amp, etc...?
I've been reading a lot of posts lately regarding cable choices (power,IC,speaker) and it seems the feedback is mostly from tube owners but I'm particularly interested in hearing from those of you who have ss amps at the heart of your systems as I suspect the cable choices may be different in some cases. Please, more experienced audiophiles , your feedback !
My current IC and speaker cabling is custom made from Tom Tutay who many of you probably know. I like the Tutays better than the older Tara Labs ICs (Spectrum equivalents) and Blue Jeans Cable speaker cables which I initially had in my system. Now I feel the Tutays could be better/acheive more.
My current PCs are stock and wanting to upgrade them is what started my search. I've been trying for some used Audience PCs but missed the most recent offerings here on Audiogon. I'm also considering the Audio Horizons Transparent Cable PCs which would be the same price as the used Audience PC but brand new. Also I have a couple of PorterPorts on their way to help with the AC source.
I have a Bel Canto eVo2i integrated, Arcam FMJ CD-23, Marantz ST-17 tuner and Dynaudio 1.3SE Contours on custom Sound Anchor stands and listen to a wide variety of music at a low-medium volume.
I like the best-bang-for-your-buck approach to budgeting for these things. Your advice is appreciated !
