I think you need to budget more money. If you have 300-450 to spend get a good interconnects first from your cd to pre, then pre to amps. I would recomend some used Audio- quest like some Python or viper. If you want more forward character then Nordost blue Heaven. New interconnect like Creative Concepts 3.0 would be nice and in budget.
Cables for a fledgling system
The retail value of my system is about 7k
(Tyler Ref Monitors, Rogue magnum 66/88, Cal CL15)
my cables are currently all stock/(with the exception of speaker wire which is signalcable)
I've been contemplating upgrading my power cords/interconnects (current wall sockets are standard).
15% would be 900/450 (retail/used)
10% would be 600/300
should I take the leap and toss 300ish on cabling for my system or would that be money better spend in upgrading other components? (My system uses 2 interconnects, 3 power cords, and figure speaker cable is already taken care of with the signalcable gear)
any brands in this price range? or recommendations?
