Warm, rich sounding interconnects?

My system is in flux at the moment with a Wadia Intuition 01 as preamp/amp/DAC bookshelf Tyler speakers and (horror of horrors) an iPhone with an Auris bluetooth connection for the current audio source. Since bluetooth at best sounds somewhat thin and tilted up on higher frequencies, it doesn’t play necessarily well with the Wadia which is great sounding overall but also can be on the revealing side.

I know I should get a better source - but even so I’ll always want the option of wireless in various situations. I’ve owned Purist Audio Museaus’s (rev-c’s) in the past, which would be perfect, but sadly sold them on A-gon some time ago. Those are hard to find and the newer Purist cables are brighter sounding.

So in a nutshell I’m looking for interconnects which will deepen and darken the sound for my current setup - and new/used for under $400. Any ideas?

If you want a warm rich sound then you simply need to apply a little butter or cream to the jacket of your interconnects. It works wonders!

If you find it too warm or smooth then try a sprinkle of pepper and that usually will spice up the sound.

Salt does not work too well (don’t know why) but BBQ sauce (especially the Paul Newman kind) is my favorite lately.

This to me is the #1 reason to get good cable elevators on speaker cables! Elevators keep the sauce off the floor and the flavour enhancement uniquely on the sound - it also allows easy access so you can quickly change sounds on the fly.


Of course YMMV.
