IC/Speaker Recommendations for Sim Audio/Dynaudio

Hi guys,

I am looking for suggestions for changing out my IC's and speaker cables. I need to balance my 2 channel with my HT as it is an integrated system.

My system consists of a stock Denon DVD-2900, Sim Audio Nova LE cd player, Attraction 7.1 pre/pro and Titan amp. Speakers are Dynaudio with S3.4's for the fronts

Power cords are Elrod Statement on the amp and Cardas cords on the pre and cd. I have Cardas IC's and speaker cables with GR between source and pre, NR between pre and amp and GR speaker cables.

While I like the sound that I am experiencing with the warmth and texture that I am experiencing, I find myself yearning for more detail, less warmth. Maybe a bit more punchy and dynamic sounding. Tried changing out the GR on the source from GR to NR. While that gave me more detail, it leaned out the sound.

Looking for suggestions from people especially if you have Sim Audio or Dynaudio equipment.

Thanks!

My suggestion would be to look into TG Audio cables. I was using Elrod power cords everywhere (Statement II on the amps, and EPS 2 Signature on the digital boxes and preamp. I switched from the Signatures to TG Audio SLVR and gained exactly the changes you're looking for - the sound is more neutral, more detailed and more nimble. In comparison the Elrods were a touch too warm and a bit thicker sounding in the low mids/upper bass. Replacing the Statements on the amps with Argent Audio Brujo HC had exactly the same effect.

TG's High Purity interconnects and speaker cable are among the very best, IMO. They give a very natural sound, with exceptional clarity and image structure.
