Just wanted to check in. From my experience, most cables sounds right in some systems, and not others(some seem bad always). You have to try and see. I agree that there are many $300 cables that sound better than $1200 cables(you guys are right about Coincident). But there is one cable I am always on here touting, only because I see no one else talking about it. I think many of us should try it, assuming they have the right system for it. Pure SOLID SILVER interconnect from HomeGrownAudio. Their version of Kimber KCAG(and we know that can be great cable in many systems), using solid core wire in place of the stranded Kimber. It also features pure Teflon insulation. $70 for 1 meter, terminated!!! Yes, you read that right! The fact is that cable SHOULD cost this much. Not 10X this. They also offer a money back guarantee. There is nothing to lose, and it loses NOTHING to any other cable. Hoping to spread the word...
Inteligent high end cableing
Good grief.....I thought mating my electronics, speakers and budget was tough, but getting any consistancy with cableing advice seems impossible. I have recently acquired Proceed HPA3 amp (250/Ch), Proceed AVP pre-amp, Proceed PMDT DVD transport and will be linking them to either Watt Puppies 5.1 or to Revel Salons (there's a conversation right there). However, my real issue is what speaker cableing will match this setup. I can rationalize spending $40,000 on my system, but cannot get past $895 per foot for Audioquest top of the line. There's got to be a better 'mousetrap'. Any intelligent advice will be appreciated.
