Your amp MIGHT benefit from a power cord upgrade....I believe something larger than 14 Ga. As for speaker cables, what you have should be fine. There's a reason they've been around forever. There is SO much marketing BS around cables. Don't fall for it.
Would my system benefit from cable upgrades?
Hi All,
So I am wondering if my system may benefit from Cable Upgrades.
I consider my system to be very entry level
I have the following main components:
- Vincent SV-500
- Martin Login Motion 40 Speakers
- Mo-Fi Studio Desk TT
- Technics SL-G700 SACD Player
- Questyle DAC
- Jolida JD 9 II Phone Pre-Amo
As for power connections, I have a IsoTek Sirius EVO 3 Power Strip and entry level AudioQuest Speaker Cables and Power Cables.
The interconnects at the moment are pretty generic.
I am thinking about starting with the Speaker Cables and at least the Power Cable for the Amp to upgrade to something more substantial.
But also wondering if it would really be a benefit to my system or would I need to upgrade to much better components for cables to matter?
If I start dropping a few thousand on all the cables (speaker, power and interconnects) I wonder if I would experience a difference?
Just wanted to get opinions.
Thanks
