Ref 110 and LS17 interconnects


I am currently using Audioquest Columbia XLR 72v DBS cables between my Bryston BDA-1 source and LS17 pre and also between my Ref 110 amp and LS17 pre. I know there are many other options and would like to hear from folks who have same equipment as to what they are using and/or would recommend. Staying in the under $1200 range if possible.

Hi Gcdm01,
Thanks, I was actually hoping for that response. I have been very pleased with them, but my budget now allows for an upgrade (if necessary). I have tried quite a few cables in the past from MIT, Nordost, Audioquest, and Transparent, though none have been above the $500 mark. Basically I was curious if there was much to be gained looking at other slightly more costly options. I think I will keep the AQ Columbias for now. Thanks again.
I think the question is, what are your goals in updating / changing cables?
Are you looking for more detail, better or more bass, smoother presentation, maybe more rounded, more upfront soundstage or more laid-back?

Cables can change these attributes to some extent, so it may not be what someone else is running....another persons goals may be different.
It is good to hear that you are happy with your system. I have a pair of TARA the 2 ($1300) in another system. The AQ is just as good. (The bass is even a little better.) Good sound is all that matters, regardless of price. After a long time, I am fairly happy with the sound of my system as well. The only downside is that I am now bored and looking for something to do. Did you know that you can actually listen to music with this type of equipment?
