Interconnect & Power Cord f/ Sony SCD-1?


I have a Hot-Rodded SCD-1, and I've been trying different interconnects and power cords. I'm using Harmonic Tech Magic Link intercon. and the Fantasy PC. Any suggestions for a good match w/ the SCD-1. I'm lookng for dynsamics, increased soundstage, & ultimate transparency...Thanks.

I'm using Audience Au24 XLR ic's and the Foundation Research LC-1 passive in-line power conditioner (I use one for each component) with my SCD-1.

The Au24 interconnects and speaker cables are in my opinion perhaps very close to the best yet at a very reasonable price.

And the Foundation Research LC-1s and LC-2s are the very best line conditioner/power cable according to Marty DeWulf of Bound for Sound. And the LCs come with their own built-in power cable and cost about as much as a good power cable.

Danlib1, I only recently went from the Pure Note E.R.s XLRs to the Au24 XLRs (I've already owned the Au24 speaker cables for quite some time) and could not believe how much more musical the Au24 ics were in my system.

What I thought was a touch of digital glare or hash all but vanished with the Au24s. Very low noise-floor produced a very pristine, rich, and more musical sound in comparison.

I know that many claimed the Pure Note ER ics to be better than the Nordost Valhallas, but the Au24 ics were simply in another and better league. In my system anyway.
