Mogami wire vs Signal Cable inter and Linn K400

Hi everyone,

Tomorrow I will be swapping all of my Signal Cable Analog One interrconnects out for some KAB American Recorder Technology Jazz interconnects (made with Mogami mini quad wire). I found a few good recommendations for the Mogami wire and I've also read that Linn uses Mogami wire for some of their applicaitons.

I plan on posting a follow-up in this thread once I've given the Jazz cables a try in my system for a week or two.

Also, I currently have Linn K400 in my system using it as a bi-amp config. I was wondering if anyone has compared the K400 to Mogami 2921 quad speaker cable in a bi-amp config?

TIA

First impressions from last night. Cables sounded great. No rolled off highs, very organic with large and deep soundstage and a very nice ranging bass punch. More later...

Sbrownnw,
I say, try the Signal Cable Silver Resolution before you settle down.

I had Signal Cable Analog Ones throughout my system and they were pretty good. I bet the Silvers are a good step up but I have never heard an interconnect image as well as the Mogami 2549. Plus the Silvers are twice the money (and then some since I need some 4,5 and 6 foot lengths) and do not have as good as RCA connectors.

I just got 60 ft. of 2549 in the mail today to build my own custom interconnects to wire up my entire system. I was planning on connecting them the same way as yours (shield floated on one end). Glad to hear you're enjoying them.

I am about to place my second order of Mogami 2549 with the Neutrik ProFi RCA connectors to outfit my entire system with 2549 interconnects. I also just ordered some Mogami 2921 quad bulk speaker wire for a bi-wire setup in both of my systems. Looks like the 2921 is just right with 2972 not being made any more and 3104 is pretty large in the gauge. Also have my Rogue Cronus Magnum on order - cannot wait for all the new items.
