Cable septic


Okay, I’ve spent a fair amount on my dream system. Voxativ 9.87 system, very efficient speakers, Vocation 211 integrated, ps audio Directstream DAC and power station, etc. I’m using pretty basic cables, mostly what came with my equipment.  I still remember a magazine article where they AB tested high end cables neatly separated vs a mess of cheap crap.   The result, nobody heard a difference. So, flash forward, what cables will make a difference?  Brand and which component in order of benefit. Thank you!

Hearing a difference depends a lot on how bad the cable you were replacing was.  I was a power cable skeptic until a friend gave me a sine wave filter power board thingy and a chunky cable.  I plugged them in just in case the friend came to visit.  I was astounded at the difference, But my original setup had had a cheap and nasty power board in the line with lots of gadgets plugged into it.

As for line in cables, I've been very pleased with Chord Clearway RCA cables which are around the hundred pound mark.  I don't think I would spend any more on a cable, although I consider it a lifetime investment.
