Cables For Simaudio gear

Hi All,

I've been updating my Simaudio gear to a 700 series, and I have reached a point where I now need to start looking at cables (power and interconects). I've already read some posts and it seems in general the recommendation goes for Cardas. Since the reviews I read had some time now, I was wondering if there is something different/better nowadays.

I was thinking about the following cables:
Power cods: WW Silver Electra 7 or AQ Hurricane
XLR Interconnect: Cardas Clear

I am happy to look into other option, and looking forward to hear your thoughts and experiences.   

Many thanks in advance

Filipe

Your gonna save a lot of money.

As long as it sounds good to you, that is ALL that matters.

Some of your buddies might think different, as they clear out and leave the joint.

Me, I just put plug in my ears if it’s bad and read lips.. Some folks and their gear don’t give a hoot... ME I’m picky.. BUT I have a solution no matter the situation.. Enjoy!! :-)

The oscillating amp issue is because of the network box. Clearly a WRONG choice and if they would have looked into it they would have know. A few of the older cable drove class ds and valve amps into oscillation.
ARC and VTL both had problems, behind cable mismatch.
