best ics for cd55

Wait for the amp. Your current cables may be fine in the new application.

I echo the first response about waiting to listen to things again after you get the Audiomat. It should be a real eye-opener for you to say the least! I am using the CD-55 myself going directly into a VAC 30/30 amp, and have been very happy with the sound. I was also using the Pro Silways for a good while, and find them to be very well balanced all around. I have since upgrade two times on the cables, and have settled on a pair of Pure Note Epsilons. Similar tonality, but far better detail, dynamics, and speed than the Pro-Silways Mk.IIs. Happy listening!

I found Stealth PGS Gold XLR's to quiet it down better than Cardas Golden Cross with better detail.

Just wait for your AudioMat is the cheapest solution!
