Cary Cabling


if you own Cary equipment, what i/c's and speaker cables are you using? i am looking to upgrade mine, and would like to know what works well in other peoples systems.

In terms of power cords, Purist Audio is terrific, as well as Audio Magic. Both the Dominus and the Clarivoyant in their rexpective lines. Further, check out Magnan.
I agree with the statement by Lak on Silver Audio. Tubes in general, and Cary in particular are a match made in heaven with silver. And Silver Audio is about as good as it gets. Smooth, liquid, warm, yet detailed and full. What more could you want in a cable?
I use Kimber Select 1020 interconnects and KS 3033 speaker cables. These cables work well with a variety of systems, but I think they're particularly good at bringing forth the harmonic magic that makes Cary equipment special.

(My system: Cary CAD 300B amp (push-pull design with 4 300Bs), JM Lab Daline 6.1 speakers, Melos MA-333 preamp, EAD Ultradisc 2000 transp. & DSP 7000 Mk. III dac, SCE HRS, VPI HW19 III turntable w/Premier FT-3 arm, Benz MO9 & Melos phono section.)
I'm running FIM Gold speaker cable (double runs for biwire) and FIM Gold power cords with my modified Cary 805c. Absolutely amazing! Since I have a rather long run from my preamp to amps, I'm using Coincident IC, and Kimber Select Silver from DAC to preamp. FIM is not inexpensive and is quite stiff, but I've found nothing better. Just my .02. Goodluck.
I use Nordost Blue Heaven biwires from the CAD-300SE monos to Soliloquy 5.3 speakers. And Blue Heaven interconnects to the Rega Planet through a Creek Passive pre. It all sounds great and was an improvement over comparable priced Kimber Silver Streak and Transparent cables.
