At times (including now), I've had the same-brand preamp and amps, and I think that's desirable. I also have the same-brand DAC and DDC, which is also probably a good thing. Otherwise, it's mix and match. Even with three different Nakamichi cassette deck models made around the same time, a cassette sounds different played in each one, so using the same brand doesn't guarantee compatibility.
Do you use one brand of electronics or are you mixing brands what has worked best for you?
I am currently using all Infigo electronics and cabling. I used to use a mix of Kr audio, resonessence and clarity cables. I had a great sound but now I have my best sound because it seems like the digital handoffs are seemless. My noise floor is way lower and I can tell the cabling and components are made to work together. What has been your experiences with all of this.
