I own a Luxman 590 AXII however I have only used RCA interconnects. With that said (due to my experimentation with my Plinius SA reference amp and Audio Research REF 5SE) I did not find a difference using RCA vs XLR interconnects using 1/M and/or ...

Integrated amp for Sonus Faber olympica nova 1
@sastybe; Wow, I think your Pass Labs int60 is very good looking! I know it's all in the eyes of the beholder. Perhaps when she looks at other integrated amps she will decide the Pass isn't as bad as she thinks? I wonder which integrated amp your...

Audio Rack Opinions

Silver Speaker Cables
There is some very good advise provided above. One bit of caution, in my opinion if you want true silver interconnects, speaker cables, power cords etc, (of any kind), make sure you purchase 5N silver. A wire that is copper with silver plating wil...
