Speaker cables with good timbre
My posted system is very outdated. Most of those components are gone. To answer your question, the Argento's were clones, not originals cables. They did sound decent but i recently sold them. I just recently purchased the Xangsane SP 6008 off Ali ...

Indeed a lot of choices out there. I used the Morrow cables from the 3 to the 7, very good cables. I've also used Silnote, Siltech 330 and 550, Bogdan Ghost, transparent Plus, MAC Cu , some Chinese clones and even the Micca cables recommended by M... 
Speaker cables with good timbre
Lots of options i see. My speakers are the Totem Forest Signature. Very transparent with good imaging, in my opinion. The rest of my system is Marantz CD60 and SL La Musica integrated. I'm very pleased with my system so no changes there. This was ...

Isn't the JPS superconductors an Aluminum alloy? I used their original ic's over 20 yrs ago.   
Looking for decent DAC with volume control
Thanks for the recommendations. My budget would be 3 to 4k. I think used for now unless something happens that allow my finances to stretch a bit further. I'm looking at Feb or March to make this purchase. Iniatially i was looking for an R2R but i... 
dacs that I have had in my system - a listing
Can you give us some insight into the $3k and $4k field? I know this is subjective so two or three options under each will do. Thank you very much for your time.

Impressive list for sure. Not only that but you sound very knowledgeable of each one you describe in the post. Where does the Gustard R26 falls in the below $2,000 range? What would be your top choice in that segment? Thank you.      
Marantz cd players
I own the CD60 and i'm very happy with it. No plans to upgrade.   
After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same?
Add me to the list. I switched to a Symphonic Line La Musica integrated with mm/mc phono. I also own a KT88 tube integrated but the SL is special.   
Best Integrated Amp You Ever Heard?
Three yrs ago i came across a Symphonic Line La Musica and i'm glad i bought it. This is an end game type of amplifier. Huge soundstage, speed, transparency and pinpoint imaging. Not to mention a reference mm/mc phono stage. The more i listen to i... 
Efficient speaker: Zu, Tekton, Volti, Klipsch, Fleetwood?
Check the Aric Audio Dynalto.  
What Integrated Amp do You use
Symphonic Line La Musica. The fact that i still have this amp a year and a half after purchase speaks volumes about its performance. After 35 years of wheeling and dealing this may be it. 
Would you sell to someone with no feedback?
I have. On top of things he was from Ukraine but worked on a merchant marine ship and was offshore in Houston. I asked him all kinds of questions and he replied asking me for my ph #. In a few mins i was doing facetime with him. He appeared legit ... 
What frustrates you the most about seller’s for sale ads?
How about " Rare ". That always make me laugh specially when there are two or  three  on ebay and other audio sites.
