Thoughts on Iconoclast interconnects?

@v-fi I agree with your thoughts on Iconoclast and that an in home trial is the only way to really know what is going to be best in my system. I should look into the details of an in home trial with the brands I mentioned and possibly others. Given the high cost of some of those cables, I am not sure if it is possible to get multiple in for audition at the same time from a place like the CableCo. The other point I have been thinking about is that a free home trial also locks me into buying new at retail price. Not a deal breaker, but I like the idea of saving some money with used interconnects where returns aren't going to happen. 

@kennymacc Undoubtedly, the Thunderbirds are excellent. I have used AQ Fire and Earth XLRs for some time so I feel like the Thunderbirds would be a natural progression, but it could also be fun to try something completely new. I see LTA is often paired with Cardas at shows, so that seems like another possibility. I have also previously owned speaker cables and power conditioners from Audience that were nice.

@zlone did you stick with the AZ Matrix Ref's in your Audionet setup? I believe you were thinking about replacing them in another thread, but I didn't see how that ended. I might be in a similar situation in that I can't say anything bad about my current RCAs, but just wondering if it is possible to achieve even better synergy and improve on what I already think is a pretty engaging sound.

Good to hear the AZ Matrix RCAs are working well in your setup @zlone  The Matrix or Silver interconnects are now on my list to try. 

@cbrez Thank you for sharing your experience! It is even more valuable given that we have the same preamp and speakers. I was not too familiar with Zenwave, but I am tempted to try them next. I looked at the price of the D4 and it was about the same as Iconoclast, so not unreasonable. I am hoping they have a trial period as well and that would clinch it for me. Of course now I also need to decide whether I want to do the Level 3 upgrade on the LTA first. Decisions. 

@zlone thanks for the information on the silver. I think I an fairly neutral now so I don’t want to tip too far into the lean and analytical direction.
