Wait for the new amp and preamp to burn in and settle in before making a decision on new cables. Always change a system in steps and take some time and let things settle in before going on the next step. That keeps you from making expensive and awful mistakes.
What cables should I get?
I'm in the process of upgrading my system, one component at a time. My present system: Njoe Tjoeb 4000 CD Player(2003)
Adcom GTP 500II Preamp(1992)
Adcom GFA 535II Amp(1992)
Klipsch Heresy Speakers(1984)
Monster Speaker Cable(1984)
Monster Interconnects(2000)
Monster Power Cord(2000)
I plan on upgrading the preamp to an AES AE-3 DJH Signature and the amp to a Cary Rocket 88 (the tube bug has got me). I plan to keep the Heresy's. I need a 15' pair of speaker cable, and 9' of power cord to run to a power strip. My taste in music is varied with an increased interest in jazz and classical. My present system tends to be bright, which I understand is typical of horn driven speakers. I expect the new preamp/amp combo will take care of this problem. I hope to keep the total cost of cables in the $500 range. Signal cables recieve rave reviews from many audiogoner's. Any suggestions/opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
