is it time to tara down

i have tried alot of cables and there are very few that can be used together (imho)..

for ic's back to back (digital out, dac to pre, pre to amp)
xlo signature 2
i keep on back to this ic combo...even after tring some really $$$$ stuff..it is very, very, transparent with incredible extension and no coloration..
(sorry havent got tried the speaker cable or pc yet)

for a completely wired system
- audience ( works really well togther..really needs the pc to complete the package)
- soundstring (cables perform wwwaaay above their price)

disclosure.. i am in the medical sales by day and a closet cable junkie by night...

btw,

from what i have been told.. the harmonic tech digital is very good for "live" recording playback and thats about it..

btw, how do you like your cec tl2 ?

mike i really like it,had the cec 51 transport at one time and sold it to get,somthing else,you know how that is.i replaced a meridian 500 transport ,for this and really love it..got it cheap on ebay,i would like to go to the tl1 one day..ive used the coax and the balanced and they both sound great..i have a meridian 518 in the chain to a modded link dac 3..and wonder sometimes if i need the 518..i just wish i could get rid of this mid range glare..did alot of cable changing over the week end and it didnt help..so i guess im going to play with speaker placement..and maybe this is how its going to sound...wish i had someone that likes this stuff it would help. i hope noone got afended by my saleman remark.im a laydown when it comes to a good sale..and go figure im a sales person to

thanks for the comeback on the cec...

what is the reccomended postioning for your speakers? would also look there and maybe bring them 1/3 out if the wife and space permits and move your listening position closer..

btw, have you experimented with power cords ??? i had a similar situation and it turned out to be the pc's (cumaltive effect).

I have finally just switched from old Tara Labs cables (RSC gen 2) to Signal Cable's Silver Resolution cables and I am loving them. I am no expert with all of the different cables out there, but I am really enjoying both the power cord and interconnects. They give a lot more clarity and focus to the music. The 2 great things about these cables is that they sound clean and fast and they are affordable. Here is a link to their page.
