Reasonable high end interconnects: without breaking the bank
I recommend trying Triode Wire Labs interconnects. I've used them and compare them favorably with the ones I moved up to, the Audience Au24SX. https://www.triodewirelabs.com/ |
I believe price has to be considered in terms of value received for money spent. In that context, I recommend the Venom series of Shunyata’s cables and cords. While not inexpensive, they aren’t “bank breakers”, either. I have yet to be less than pleased when adding one (or two) to my audio system, regardless of application. |
Fstein - the Mogami argument is perfect logic and caused me to outfit with them when I could have afforded better cables. Taking that and other “logical” approachs kept me in mid-fi for longer than I wished. Someone finally got me to try better cables and my sound quality jumped. It jumped again when I spent $500 on used $1,200 cables and jumped again at $900 for used $2,200 cables. Why other cables sound better, I don’t know ... and don’t really care any more. I’m just glad they do because I love it when my sound quality increases, its the thrill of this hobby. In so many ways it’s not a logical hobby. But I love it just the same. There are certainly exceptions but when you spend more you can get worthwhile improvements in every area of hifi. I wished I’d learned that much earlier instead of thinking that I was being clever by not trying the more expensive stuff. Just my experience. |
