Look at Ridge Street Audios' trade up interconnects. They are a bargain new and even better used!
Moderately priced interconnect for McCormack amp
I have a pair of B&W CDM9NTs that have been running off of a Denon 4802 receiver. My speaker cables are Audioquest Slate, and the source is a Pioneer PD-F07 CD player for now. I have just purchased a McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe and plan to add that in to the system, using the Denon as a pre/pro until I can add in a separate preamp. I need to find a good interconnect that won't exceed the $150-175 range for a 1m length. Candidates so far are Audioquest Diamondback, Audioquest Coral, and Harmonic Technology Truthlinks. What would you recommend out of that list or suggest trying out? I'm willing to spend some time using the Cable Company to compare, but I'm also not sure how much impact the interconnects will have until I get around to upgrading the front end of the system.
