Cable suggestions for new system?

Tvad: "cable lending library"? Never heard of that-- just another example of why audiogon is so valuable. Thanks, Tvad! Does anyone have experience with the low-cost Cobalt cables???????

I also like the RSAD cables. They are well constructed and provide a nice transparent and smooth presentation. Lately, I have also been enjoying the Oritek X-1 and X-2 cables. The X-1s are an excellent value for the price.

Ryder: actually, to my very treble-sensitive ears the Creek amp is not bright at all, in combination with the Rotel. With these components, I wouldn't want to use a less detailed speaker than the B&W's.
Thorman and Tvad: I will look into your cable suggestions. Thanks!

Hi StuartK,

I've briefly read through some of your other threads and it's apparent you are seeking more warmth for your system. If you're considering cables as a solution, you might want to consider Cardas which is warm and yet detailed.

From the components that you've listed, your setup will likely be on the bright side with all that British equipment. If cables do not eradicate your problem, the next thing I would look at is both amp and source. I am quite familiar with B&W speakers and they would sound great with the right equipment.

Good luck.

I would suggest a good starting point would be to visit the website at Ridge street audio and check out the Poiema line. Very popular,very reliable,very very good, and if you can't afford new,by all means by used Poiema. Many have and feel ( as I do ) they are one of the best bargains around.
