You forgot to mention 5) ”affordable”
Your wishlist seems like a component change vs a cable
Awesome system @zavato ! Congrats. I used to have Pass X250.5, then XA30.8 and X260.8. Preamps were XP-12 and XP22. I also owned Bricasti M3. So somewhat familiar with what you’re experiencing sound wise. I’ve not had good luck with these. I owned Ohno RCA and XLR cables. I think you can do much better. And not at much higher price. I’d focus on speaker cables first. I really like Audience FrontRow but before the FR I had the AU24SX and they were awesome. Not as extended and refined as the FR but not too far behind. |
@soix - very familiar with the AZ Matrix- my balanced interconnects are AZ Matrix- and yes, there are quite nice. @audphile1 - most of my OCC cables are from Acoustic Zen. I tried the AU24 and have a set of Ohno’s, and I sold there AU24 and think the Ohno’s are OK, not great. And thank you- my system is definitely excellent @kennyc Affordable is a plus- but I left that out as different people have different ideas of what affordable means. Thanks everyone! |
Sorry didn’t look at your system first (my bad) and you’re probably running XLR interconnects. Maybe look at Kubala-Sosna Emotion or Elation interconnects if they’re in your budget. Also Snake River Audio I think leans a little to the warmer side yet still nicely detailed, and they sell direct and offer a return option, which is nice. Just a couple other ideas FWIW, and best of luck. |
