incognito rewire-sonic improvement?

Hi Dan,

The Incognito is quite nice wire, but the slightest bit rolled off on top. You might like it depending on your system balance.

My vote would go to contacting Joe de Phillips at Discovery Cable to wire your arm.

It might be of interest to you that the good folks at Triplanar tonearms use Discovery wire.

Cheers,

My goodness how results vary! My data points for Discovery Cable are the Artisan tonearm with a Plus-4 tonearm interconnect, the Triplanar tonearm, along with Discovery interconnects.

The big caveat here is (as if you didn't know) ... this evaluation is in the context in my system - Quicksilver Electronics, Azzolina Horns, and of course, my turntables.

I've worked hard at achieving a balance where replacement of any single component doesn't throw the entire system out of whack. This is more difficult to accomplish than it should be, but I feel as if I'm real close.

Because of this difficulty, most of us tend to view selection of wire as being a tuning / tone control exercise. Unfortunate as it may be, it's the only tone control that most folks have available to them.

I think the Nordost is nice, expensive wire, but I prefer the Discovery Cable.

In addition to VPI, you'll find Frank Schroeder liking the Nordost. I've been trying to convince Frank to look at Discovery Cable. Perhaps I'll succeed one day.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming ... a wire for a fellow with a budget consistent with (or near) Incognito. I agree with you that an Incognito modded Rega is a nice improvement. On this, we agree.

Cheers,
Thom @ Galibier
