I am looking for suggestions about IC's to go between Musical Fidelity A3CR Power and Pre Amps. I am looking to upgrade to approximately $300 to $400 level. Any suggstions or warnings will be appreciated. Thanks
I think you should try SilentAudio Apollo C copper interconnects(for Solid State components). They are available on audiogon auctions and if you can get by with short 18-20" lengths, Paul will make them up for you at such a modest cost it is virtually a no risk proposition. If you like them you'll have some spare change--$375 to play with. If you want to spend $400+ I like Kworks custom made non shielded ICs and Igor also makes a very fine "empowered" model power cord. I have no connection with either company other than being a satisfied customer.
I have Musical Fidelity products and I have been VERY happy with Harmonic Technology Truth Link Silver and the Pro Silway II. I currently have both and can tell no difference between the Truth Link Silver and the Pro Silway II. I got both on Audiogon for very reasonable rates. I live in a hi RF area (Seattle suburb)so the shielding is nice.
I own and love Nordost Red Dawn. Whatever you decide on I strongly suggest you buy used, that way if you're not happy with your first choice you can resell it at your purchase price and try again, over and over until you're happy. Good luck!
