| Are you mass less I’m using low mass Banana Z Plug connectors from Nerve Audio. I crimp and solder mine to Mogami 3103 speaker cable. I bought the silver plated. I use a golf tee to expand the opening for a snug fit. Love them. Sound great! | |
| Integrated vs. Separates on a Budget Just get a 2 channel power amp and use your Denon as a pre for 2 channel. You will be surprised how the dedicated amp helps your 2 channel come alive. You can also get a phono sound stage that can improve your vinyl and connect a dedicated DAC str... | |
