Long XLR Interconnects
I know this has been discussed many times but not its at top of mind for my 2025 change. I'm planning to relocate my equipment to a side wall. I need to purchase a set of 16+ feet balanced interconnects. At that length cost becomes a real consideration. I currently run all balance Cardas Clear. I've looked at Morrow MA7, Cardas, Mogami and a few others. I don't what to lose imaging, soundstage, etc., but not excited about remortgaging the house.
Current Equipment:
Pre - Cary SLP05
Amps - AGD Audion
DAC - Bricasti M1 S2
Speakers - Joseph Audio Perspectives
Cables - Cardas Clear
Am I crazy? Any suggestions, based on experience, for moving to long XLR interconnects. Which cables would you suggest?
Thanks and sorry for bringing up an old topic.
I’d 100% agree with that and think using amp stands is an excellent idea and will be doing that myself. @audphile1 thanks for the hot tip! |
I’ve been considering the same thing, but I don’t want to sacrifice/change sound quality by using cheaper interconnects nor do I want to spend thousands on longer lengths of my current interconnects so my solution is to get a low 2-level audio rack so I can keep my current interconnects but the equipment encroaches minimally into the sound space. Just as an example, here’s a rack that should easily accommodate your components but is only 18” high. Just an idea FWIW. |
