| I’m also worried about how much of the harmonics in the music is LOST by the amp? My recent foray into digital coax cables includes Pangea Premier SE 1.0m, 1.5m, and finally the 1.5m XL, which is taking a good bit longer to break in, but provides a more intimate presentation, after 3 days with lots of replay (~20 hours so far... | |

Obviously 'some' break in is needed, but, in short, the presentation is much more intimate. I find my body grooving to the Paul Butterfield Blues Band "Better Days" | |

| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. For times when you need to listen at low levels, why not get headphones? | |
| Digital Cables: Optical, Coax, BNC, or a simple RCA interconnect? @auxinputThanks for your input. When I called Audio Advisor to order the XL I spoke with Joe, who was surprised that I preferred the 1.5m to the 1.0m. He believes the 1.0 is better. In terms of pinpoint imaging it was, but it lacked the grounded n... | |
