Cables recommendation

Hello everyone,

I currently own 803D3, C2700 pre and MC462 amp. I also have an Oppo 105D and  Denon X4700 that power the surround speaker. I’m now in the look for cables to fire this system up the best I can but to keep the spending reasonable. I currently do not have any cables.

I’ll appreciate everyone’s opinion and suggestion on cable speakers, power cables, interconnects from 2700 to 462 and other cables I should buy to get the most out of this system. I know many have similar systems as this one and would love to hear your recommendations.

Another important thing to note is that I do not have a streamer and thought to use the Oppo for this reason (maybe connect it to DA2 DAC of the C2700?) or maybe get a Sonus streamer. 

Thanks 🙏🏼

@jasonbourne52 Cconnect  4ohm speakers using a 12ft aluminium/copper cable cable of 18awg, listen to your favorite track, and then listen again with a high purity copper of 10awg.  Let us know what you think!

I also use Audioquest earth interconnects and William Tell bi wire speaker cables with my B&w 802d3’s, Classe Sigma SSP, and McIntosh 611 amps.   Agree, amazing.

Audio Advisor sells Audioquest Rocket 88 speaker wire that they terminate. The cost is about 1/3 less than buying the AQ version. It does not have the 72 volt battery pack on it. Oh and it goes on sale from time to time.

As far as interconnects, I usually get what was hot a couple of years ago at half price or less. Check out Music Direct. They have a selection to choose from

All the best.

A good choice or the AQ Type4 if you are price sensitive. I use both, the Rocket 88 is more detailed.
