The icing on the cake


Good afternoon to Audiogon friends!
i Hope you will enjoy music with covid situation and be fit as a fiddle.

well i have pretty good stuf in my room. A sweet c7es, a neutral as water Hegel h190 and a Swiss tool minidsp shd. Well I do my best with absorbers and diffusers. A good begging is a half battle....so i am ready for the last things. In order to not rob a bank I want your experience.

Well my cables are: for the speakers atlas hyper 3.5, interconnect atlas hyper integra, power cable for dac atlas eos dd and for the amp Vovox initio. I am looking for involving sound, with good midrange.

well the atlas cables have good imaging, is a true sound cables but not the involving sound that I want. Generally speaking Furutech on the other hand are smoother but not true cable...and lacks in dynamic but more involving. I did not try other speaker cables only some cheap. Speaking for interconnect cables....I try the van den haul the name that was very good and involving but I didn’t like the lows freq and also the imaging. The atlas interconnects is ok with good imaging, detail with balance and tight bass, excellent attack but not involving. About power cables I try the following.

supra lorad....was not an improvement in any device.
Belden the black one with supra plugs. It was a bit involving but with no detail and a bit dark.
furutech tcs 31(with furutech plugs f8 e38)....very good lows with no good imaging in highs.dull mids.
Vovox initio very good imaging,neutural in a cold way not involving. Lacks in bass.neutral in a cold way.
gigawatt Lc 1 same as Vovox with better detail better lows but a bit thin in voices.not involving and neutral in a cold way.
atlas eos dd neutral in the middle of the gigawatt and the Vovox.

I read that gigawatt lc 2 is very good but is not my cup of tea. Ιt has voices with more body with the same characteristics of this company. It is an upgrade but not for that I am looking for. I read many good things for the van den hul mainstream but also that a wireworld is better from it without saying if it is involving....wireworld lacks in dynamics. Atlas 4dd I will be also a good option but not with involving sound.

i didn’t say that I also have dedicated line with gold fuse and a keces filter.

i know that is a balance situation. I don’t know if wireworld is as involving as the vdh....and also I don’t know if I will find a power cable as the Vdh with better performance.

In interconnects I see vdh have many models and I am a bit confused. I love the name but is not perform good in bass.I don’t know if the other models is like the name in mid freq. maybe some guys from here will be a hand of help saving some pennies. As the hifi god says....is an expensive hobby buying cables.

speaker cables is a point that hurts. First I will play with power cord and interconnects and maybe I will escape from buying a speaker cable.

also be my guest for some advices in racks and isolators feet that not dry the treble and the mids. Involving is my name.

As you see I am looking for micro details and I am believer that cables makes sense.
thanx in advance
