I like to mix and match also.A clean and clear cable between the pre and amp,a slightly sweet cable from dac to pre,and sweet/fast speaker cables.Still experimenting with digital cables.
"Loom" cabling vs. 'mix n match' ?
I want to use a new set of cables for my awesome Moon 780D DAC v2 - - including a power cord, an AES/EBU input from the Moon 260D Transport, and RCA IC's (into a Shindo Giscours preamp). I've read good things about Acrolink-Mexcel, Shunyata, Nordost and Purist among others. But is there an advantage to using the same manufacturer for all cable types in and out of the Moon ? Or might the cumulative effect be too much of a good thing which would be better improved by intermingling brands ?
Thanks,
