| Cable upgrades @magnuman ok you got it buddy. I won’t be starting a pointless argument with you. | |
| Cable upgrades magnuman 155 posts 02-13-2024 at 10:30am My suggestion to you is if you want to open up your system a little bit more change all the cables to OCC single crystal which is what audio sensibility uses, far superior to anything OFC. That... | |
| Cable upgrades @mclinnguy yup - two sets of absolute copper was my configuration before I switched to Nordost Tyr 2. I also had every AZ power cord - el Nino, Tsunami, Krakatoa, Gargantua. | |
| Cable upgrades James…I would stay away from AZ Silver Ref II in that system unless you want to thin it all out. I’ve gone through the entire AZ cable line with different configurations of Silver and Copper. In my experience the Silver Ref II work best betwee... | |
| Cable upgrades @pennfootball71 not sure SR is a match with Benchmark. My experience with SR cables is they’re slightly hot up top. That’s most likely going to be too much of a good thing in the OP’s system. | |

Matching tube preamps (typically higher output impedance than SS counterparts) to solid state amps (typically lower input impedance than the tube amps) is where you need to b... | |
| Cable upgrades Awesome! Looks like they did a nice job and now you can evaluate them and if they don’t work out, you have a great set of cables certified by cardas that will be easy to sell. Just give the cables a few days to settle by running a signal thru the... | |
| Comparing Directstream 1 and 2 Glad to hear! | |
| Help me pick some new or used speaker cables Why not just go up the AQ line? Robin Hood Zero may be? and add an AQ power cord for your amp. Should be good synergy and not bright. | |
| Help me pick some new or used speaker cables What are your current cables so that we have a point of reference. |
