Running All Your Cables with The same Brand


Hello everyone,

I was just pondering on the thought that if when running all your cables that are produced by the same company, can it make a difference? My first purchace was a pair of Harmonic technology Pro 9 speaker cables,and i fell in love with them the moment i hooked them
up.Next was a digital cable(platinum series),and was again taken aback at how well it performed.i am soon to have a pair of interconnects Magic
2's,also by HT,and and ac cord too boot,all by the afore mentioned manufacture.

my qeury is this,if I am going this route,by having all wiring being the same brand,can this be of benefit to my gear? And do you think it can create a form of synergy overall on my equipment?

You don't necessarily need to use the same brand but I found out it works to use the same approach to cable design.
In my case, I use Darwin silver ICs and Clear Day SCs and if you look into their design philosophy, they both are quite similar and give excellent synergy and results.

All the best,
Nonoise
I have my system wired from Wall Plug to Speakers with one brand and have been very happy the results. But my components are a mix of brands, purchased according to the individual sonic performance they offer.
So to the question of synergy, yes is my answer.
To the question of component benefit, I doubt it.
I found the synergy of same brand to be most important with I/C's and speaker cables as they are the most "Intimate" with the signal. I am a big believer in after-market power cords as well but find that since they are delivering their "signature" before the component does its job, then they are less needed to synch with the output of that particular piece...For example, I too am a huge Harmonic Tech fan and have been moving up their line for well over 10 years and currently love the Pro 9's with the Magic 2 I/C's (also their Magic Digital Link between transport and Dac), but after some experimenting with their power cord I have found other [brands] that work better in my system.
Good luck and enjoy,

not a bad thought in theory. Yes you could run all cables/cords w/ the likes of Transparent, Cardas, Kimber, Nordost just to name a few.

Cables/power cords (especially) are my 1st love and facet of our hobby. My reference power cord, at this juncture, is the Stage III Concepts. My 2nd choice would be Silent Source Musical Reference. 3rd choice would be a Wireworld Electra 7. You can deduce how this list would carry on...

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
Signal cables and power cables from the same brand as well? How about this: all signal cables are the same model (IC and SC)?
