Using 2 different brands of interconnects?


Is there any problem with this if the cables are in the same ballpark in quality (or price)? Do cables have such different sound signatures that things get muddied or cancelled out?

Forgive my ignorance. This is my first venture into the topic. I'm talking about under $100 gear for a meter length..

I was a mix and match sort of guy. However when I placed a pair of Cardas Golden Reference in place of Golden Presence between my CD player and preamp to match the pre - power connection everything just clicked into place and the improvement was very evident. I was quite surprised at the magnitude of improvement as they are both from the same series, same materials, almost identical construction, and when compared in isolation quite close in performance.

Now I’m not so sure. I’ll bet there are some great combinations out there; however it was an interesting learning experience.
