@twoleftears Thanks for getting back to me. Always good to hear from someone with the same gear. 

@contuzzi I listen to all types of music, but, mainly rock 'n roll and jazz. I wasted none of my budget on cables and the Elacs will move to another system. You're making it clear early on that you're a tosser. Move along.

@jond Cool. Don't get me wrong, the Elacs look and most importantly sound great! I'm keeping them.  There is a 'musicality' and soundstage that I've heard from the DeVores that is another level. That could well be the efficiency that you mention. Again, I appreciate that there a lot of variables, but, that sound is hard to resist. Thanks for taking the time to post. Much appreciated!

@sfar Really appreciate the feedback! There will always be differences in systems i.e. cables, components, listening room sizes and suitability, listening tastes, etc. The fact that you've lived with several generations of DeVores, multiple amps and pres (including a Rogue) over a long period of time is exactly the kind of feedback I was to get when I posted. You've listened and landed on what suits you. This is a living hobby, after all. Thanks!

@contuzzi I never said anything was free. Everything was within my budget. I've heard a difference with some of the cables and others were  an experiment while others still were a recommendation from people I trust. That's all that matters, Mate. It's a hobby. Hobbies have a cost. 
You've been called out for what you are. Yet again, no doubt.
