SC's and IC's for Dynaudio C1 and JR Continuum 500

I have a Bryston B100 with the C1's and it did take a very long time to decide on my speaker cables but I did choose the Nordost Frey. At first listen I thought they were 'thin' sounding but after several weeks I realized I really heard the 'air' between the vocals and instruments. Better attack and decay. Very relieving!! I did have a Nordost demo case for cables for 8 weeks which gave me time to make a decision. I've had the cables for 11 months and would only consider moving up in the Nordost line.

That being said I also really like the Kubala Sonsa Emotion speaker cable but it reminds me of a fire hose not garden hose and is very heavy. I personally didn't want too much pulling force on the speaker connectors.

As far as IC's I use the Fusion Audion Interlocker II which is a little forward but at least for me it mates well with the Frey speaker cable.

It's your money and everyone has a different taste in type of sound. Ideally try to demo cables in your home on your system.

Most important have fun.

If you are looking for a warmer sound then OCOS or Supra would not be the choice IMO.

Cardas good be a good choice depending on the model. I would also consider the Fusion cables as you mentioned. Eric is great to deal with and they do impart a warmer sound. I used to own the Interlocker ICs and Predator power cords.

Another option could be the Stealth PGS (used) or other cables that use gold. Examples include Gabriel Gold and Jade Audio, both of which I have had ein my system.

I have the exact same setup: JR Continuum 500 + Dynaudio C1. Source is Esoteric X-03se and Im running Cardas GR SC/IC (RCA) now. I like them. They work pretty well on classicals.

Hi guy's i have a few friend's with deep pockets NOT ME they ALL use Stealth ic's a few use Indras and a few use Sakras yes they are expensive BUT man do they sound good of course all four systems are over 100k with my little 20k system i will stick with my Gabriel Gold ic's they are pretty darn good for the price.

So Mr.Acoustat, if you know, what speaker cables to your friends with Indras/Sakra ICs use? Thanks in advance.

I have the Stealth ICs but now would like something more affordable than the Stealth speaker cables.

(For now, I'm using some old Synergistic Resolution Ref. .5 speaker cables. They are pretty nice I have to say.)
