I have a Linn System (Genki, Wakonda, LK85) with Blue Heaven IC and Solar Wind speaker cable. I cannot say much about the Silver Streak, but I tried the Kimber PBJ and Hero in my system. The Blue Heaven showed much better synergy in this system, mainly because all the advantages of the Solar Wind (detail, speed) are now kept throughout the system. The Heros in comparison sounded almost canny in the midrange. With the Blue Heavens i noticed a slight brightening of the sound with extended highs, however not as much as when changing from the Kimber 4VS to the Solar Wind. The main improvement as with all Nordost cables were in speed, timing and pace.
If you like the Solar Winds, I would give the Blue Heavens a try, but be careful trying new cables, they did take more than 80 hours to be broken in, where I avoided to listen to the system.
Please let me know if you get to try both. I was originally considerding the Silver Streak in my sytem as well.
Good luck,
Rene
