Running All Your Cables with The same Brand

Hello everyone,

I was just pondering on the thought that if when running all your cables that are produced by the same company, can it make a difference? My first purchace was a pair of Harmonic technology Pro 9 speaker cables,and i fell in love with them the moment i hooked them
up.Next was a digital cable(platinum series),and was again taken aback at how well it performed.i am soon to have a pair of interconnects Magic
2's,also by HT,and and ac cord too boot,all by the afore mentioned manufacture.

my qeury is this,if I am going this route,by having all wiring being the same brand,can this be of benefit to my gear? And do you think it can create a form of synergy overall on my equipment?

Can it benefit your gear? No, using all of one brand of cable will not make gear last longer or otherwise benefit the equipment. The equipment will not know if you are using one brand or different brands.

Can you enjoy the sound of one brand of cable? Certainly, many do, while many others like to mix and match. There are no absolutes.

Cheers,
John

I agree with Barto. For many years I've struggled to find a full loom that satisfied me. All cables have their own strengths and weaknesses. I have found that the affects to be additive, meaning that the more cables of one line that I added the easier it was to hear their strengths and weaknesses. Most times I've had more success in balancing the sound to my tastes by using cables from different manufacturers.
