If the amps in the monitors are Class D then just get two more Digital Americans if Class AB the 7+'s since you are comfortable with the TWL sound.
Humble Request For AC Cable Recommendations
Greetings! I am just wondering if the educated and experience folks of this forum might be able to give me some recommendations. I have narrowed things down to needing some new AC cables for the powered monitors but am hoping not to have to spend a lot of time with trying different options. The system is technically for hybrid purposes, production and audiophile listening. Here’s what I have---
Transparent Audio Reference AC Cable in MM2 at the front end
Transparent Audio Powerisolator8 in MM2
Lavry Black AD and DAC with Triode Wire Digital American Cables
Mac Pro with RME AES pcie card and Triode Wire Digital American Cable
KRK VXT6 powered monitors with Signal Cable Magic Reference AC Cables -- It honestly surprised me a bit that these sounded the best to me of other things I tried, as they were much cheaper than everything else in the system and are meant more for DACs etc than powered monitors, but they seem to bring the sound very close to what sounds good in the room; they’re just a little too bright, making the sibilants a little too intense/harsh, and they sound a *tad* stuffy. If I could get something that has similar a sound stage but just a little more open-sounding and a little less bright I will be happy. I was looking into something like the Cardas Parsec cables, but some reviews are saying the new age of Cardas cables are a little bright and weak on the bass, so that’s probably not the right direction for me. I’ve tried a number of things but I’d rather just get some recommendations instead of reporting negative things about other companies. The KRKs are a little finicky and I will probably replace them eventually but for now I just need to get the sound within range.
Looking to keep it in the 300-500 dollar range. Everything is connected with custom Mogami XLR cables from Redco with ground prong lifted at the destination component. I have several preamps and mics but I’m good with those, really trying to get the monitoring right.
Thanks for your time folks!
