Siltech G5 range compare with Stereovox Reference

I recently acquired a set of Stereovox SEI-600 interconnects with their new terminators. I need one more set of interconnects along with a set of loudspeaker cables. However, I cannot quite make my mind up about the merits of the Stereovox reference cables in comparison with the Siltech SQ-110 G5 cables that I also use.

The back end of my system consists of Audio Research VT-100 power amp, Audio Research LS25 MKII pre amp and Talon Audion Hawk monitors. I would like to purchase the same speaker cable (Siltech LS-188 or Stereovox LSP-600) to go with my selected interconnect.

My question: has anyone experience with these two cables and a second opinion on their strengths and weaknesses and possible performance in my set up?

Many thanks

Oneprof, I've got the new Stereovox with the rounded termination. What differences do you detect in their sound?

I'm becoming slightly more familiar with the Stereovox sound and so feel a little more certain of their distinction from the top of the Siltech G5 cables (the SQ110) but would appreciate other views or suggestions on other interconnects.

Many thanks

Chris,

Many thanks. Mine are the SEI-600s. How long would you think they need to break in fully as they seem to present a slightly bright and etched presentation at present?

Many thanks

Hi Chris,

Many thanks. Do you do phonocables with xlr termination?

Hi Chris,

I'm using Raul Iruegas' Essential 3150 from an Ikeda tonearm and so I'd need a 5 pin Din to two XLRs phono cable. Would a custom made 2.5m length of your BAL600 cable be a possibility?

Thanks again
