Need to warm things up a bit...


My new LAT-1000 speakers were lush and musical right out of the box. However, in recent weeks they have lost a bit of this, and dare I say it, sound at times almost brittle in the upper mids and highs.

firstly, may this be a break-in thing with the speakers? They have about 150hrs on them at present, I thought that should be enough.

secondly, what speaker cables can I try to warm up the highs/upper mids? Currently using Siltech LS-188 Classic Mk2.

My speaker cables are bi-wire setup, and I have both sets spades connected to a single binding post on the speakers,(as speakers only have one set binding posts);is this ok for performance? I can't see how that would cause a problem...

Opinions please...

you can keep your SC and use an Stealth Nanofiber interconnect between your source and preamp. It will also make things more relaxed. It worked with Siltech LS110 spkr cables and it might work with the LS188.

you gave very good description, I agree 100% between the Cardas vs Siltech findings of yours.
