Holographic Imaging- Cable suggestions?

I've been doing a little cable experimenting lately. I replaced my Pre-Power amp interconnect (Transparent Super) with another (Stealth PGS). The main improvement was high frequency extention, unfortunately, I lost some of the holographic imaging of the Transparent cable. Of course, I want both qualities. Should I consider going up-level in the Transparent line or try another brand of cable?

Transparent works best with the whole system done. What else are you using?

I take that back. In MY system Transparent really made a difference once I had wired the entire chain. Everybody has an opinion.

Adam, how do you like the 777es? Built like a tank but I couldn't swing it and ended up with the s9000es. Really hope the whole SACD thing takes off, but that's another thread all together. I run Ultra to a Audio Research LS-15, Ultra balanced w/xl to Proceed HPA2 and Super bi-wire (soon to be Ultra) to ML aerius i. Maybe you can get a loaner set of Ultra to try? Transparent has a pretty good trade up policy from the "super" line on up. Do you have balanced outputs and inputs? It could be your system just doesn't click with the Transparent stuff, but I figure if you liked the other 2 sets enough to fork out the dough than try the whole system. It has an entirely different flow with everything Transparent. Good luck with you efforts, sounds like a nice system.
