Cables for Totem, Bryston, Adcom, Rega

Just bought a pair of Totem Arro for my secondary office system. They'll be driven by a Bryston 4b-nrb amp, Adcom GFP750 pre, and Rega Planet 2000 CD player. Right now I've got really cheap Tara Labs speaker cables and monster interconnects (I know). I've had a lot of success with Synergistic Research interconnects in the past, but I don't know if they're a good match for this equipment. I've never had Totems before. Any cable brand suggestions would be helpful. -Dave

JPS Labs makes open, neutral cables. You can demo them as well as any others you care to try/compare by renting them from The Cable Company. I found their services very helpful and you can use the rental price toward purchases whether from new stock or their available used cables.

I've used the cable company before with good success. I was hoping to have some feedback and recommendations from agon members as well. Jgiacalo - have you used JPS Labs cables with this equipment before? Thanks. -Dave

The best I have ever heard Bryston electronics was with Synergistic Research Tesla cables at CES a few years back. Also The Cable Co. is an excellent way to audition cables in your system before you buy so I recommend you try a few different brands.

I have been using Alpha-Core MI2 speaker cables with my Bryston electronics for several years, and been very pleased with their performance. As for interconnects (when you are ready), it's hard to beat Kimber Hero's which do very little "wrong" and seem to mate well with almost every component out there. Your other option for moderately priced IC's is Nordost Blue Heavens.
