What are the best interconnects.


Looking for the best bang for your buck cables. Currently using audio quest King Cobra. Tried AQ Sky and they sounded real good but too pricey.
Thanks for any suggestions.

System synergy is what dictates which cables will work best, as has been said here.

I had King Cobras and went to Kimber Heros with the WBT RCAs. Everything is better to my ears - cleaner, more focused, more open, more space between instruments, and just a better sense of being live vs recorded IMO. Funny thing is, the size of individual instruments (imaging wise) shrunk a bit. At first I thought it was a tradeoff, but after a while realized that it was more realistic. To my ears, there wasn't a single tradeoff.

I have the Heros connected between a Bryston B60 and Rega DAC. Speakers are Audio Physic Yara Evolution Bookshelves.

I think The Cable Company specializes in used cables and being able to audition them at home for lengths of time. I haven't dealt with them, so I can't vouche for them. They seem to have a great selection and I've heard several people say they have very knowledgable people answering the phones. In your shoes, I'd give them a call and see what they're all about and what they have to say.
Again, I can't personally vouche for them as I've never dealt with them. A few people I trust have dealt with them and they had nothing but good things to say about them.
