Alfa Core Goertz MI2
I didn't realize they sold the jumpers, but I went ahead a placed an order for these as well. I also didn't reazlie they were made from the same material as the cables. Also, since you own these cables mind if I ask what connectors you chose? I we...

Phasecorrect - They also provide RCA outputs on my CD5i.As an update to my previous post, I have settled with the Blue Heavens as my IC of choice. Still have to deal with cable between pre and power, but thinking about putting another Blue Heaven ...

You guys are going to think I'm crazy and apparently your going to have to take my findings with a grain of salt.I pulled the Nordost out of my system today preparing for a sale and put the Outlaws back in and found I had completely changed my min...

I put the Nordost Blue Heaven and Chord Cobra cables through some serious testing this past week and the end result is that both are for sale on AG.To my ears neither sounded as good in my system as the Outlaw's I was was using. I was really surpr...

Mrtennis, I would like to hear more about the cables you've tried. I'm kind of going through the same thing myself right now. Pretty happy with equipment so I'm looking to squeeze out that last little bit of performance from cables.I've also been ... 
Speaker Cables for Dynaudio Special 25
Thanks guys. I've had the Blue Heaven IC in my system since yesterday and I played about 15 different CD's through them so far. I too am noticing a forward and pronounced midrange. They seem to bring allot of air around the instruments, but the so... 
Naim Theory on Cableing
I rolled out my Outlaw IC's today and put in a pair of Nordost Blue Heaven DIN to RCA IC's. I've always been in the school that said cables made little if any difference, but after being into this hobby for over 30 years I learned different this m...

Thanks very much to everyone for your suggestions and help. Since I have a Naim CD5i as my source I also emailed them for their recommendations and asked if it would make a difference whether I used a DIN to RCA vice RCA to RCA. This was their res... 
New David Gilmour record:any feedback?
Bought it, sorry I did. Very disappointing. I tried to think of something good to say about it as I'm a huge PF fan, but Dave ripped us off with this one. Might be time to hang it up? 
New cd player-- or should I get SACD?
I say stick with the Red book CD's and put money into a really good Redbook machine. I have both, a Sony DVP NS999ES which does SACD and a Naim CD5i for Redbooks. There are some really good sounding SACD's out there, but on the whole I actually ge... 
Rega Apollo vs Naim CD5i vs Arcam CD73T
Actually, it's a $1700 and $1000 player against a $700 player. Have the CD5i in my system and am extremely happy with my decision. Also had a chance to hear the Apollo and it's also a very good CDP and I can see why many like it so much. But, I li... 
Sonus Faber Dominus Grand Piano vs Usher 6831/6731
Nick, I forgot to ask why you like the CP-777's the best. If they are better than the 8571's I sure would love to hear a pair, and maybe this in the one I should save for?Thanks.
