@deadhead1000 Ohno was the gateway for me. I'm at Au24se / Studio One now. If I improve my source components, I'll jump to Au24sx.
None of their cables (entry to premium) sh*t the bed. Build quality and sonics great across the entire line.
The Right Speaker Cables
Looking to try new speaker cables. I just tried a pair of Nordost Superflatline cables in place of my Blue Jean Cables. I found the Nordost more detailed which i loved but they didn't have the fullness that Bue Jean provides me. I find the Nordost having a leaner sound. My price range at this moment is around $500 for the pair. Suggestions on other cables I could try.
My System: Amp - Parasound A21+, Preamp - Parasound P6, Phono Amp - Parasound JC 3 Jr, Turntable - MOFI Studiodeck with Ultra Cartridge, Streamer - Bluesound Vault 2i, Speakers - GoldenEar Triton One.R

In Audience Cable I trust. Music alway sounds natural and balanced, but somehow more special their wire. Ohno is a great entry level cable, but I'd recommend pushing up to Studio One (the new AU24se) which is more than your budget, but if you're patient you could probably find one second hand. AU24SX level could be an end game cable for most of us. |
@derfman66 Something to consider… Some approach wire as a "tuning component" by mixing and matching silver (brighter and airy) and copper (meatier) across brands to get the sound to their liking. Others buy "full" looms of a single brand because they like the tuned House sound of the manufacturer. I fall in the "full loom" crowd and recommend you sample the Ohno III speaker cables with matching Audience Ohno RCA interconnects from the source. The sound you like will find you eventually with time and testing. Be patient and enjoy the journey.
