Need "warm" interconnects advice

Thank you all for your help.

Mapman - Setup is :

Silverline Sinfonia speakers (heavily modified)
320/520 B XLS single-ended amps (for powering up from 80 Hz)
Rythmik-Audio 15" subs X 2,Rythmik-Audio bass amplifiers X 4
Quad CDP-2 (soon to be changed), Promitheus copper TVC.
GG Revelation (Quad -> TVC), Silnote Poseidon Signature (TVC -> 320B amps),Nordost Valhalla (double run) speaker cable.

SE tube amps are wired with silver/gold Mundorf wire.
Speed, clarity, transparency,details - it's amazing..

Zd542 - This is more a "personal preference" than a problem.
I agree with your logic, cables are not for fixing problems. What led me to this thinking, is the result I got with changing from copper ICs to GG wire few years ago.

I will change from Quad+TVC to Sabre custom-made DAC. Sabre is very strong on details, speed - which my system already has in spades.So I'm more concerned when that change happens, not to further speed up and "cold" the sound.
Also, speakers will be placed on Aurios Pro soon, which could also result in a similar change in sound.

What about Jade cables? Anyone had some experience with them?So far, I've heard only good things :)

why would you want to color your system with cables? I look to the least influence a cable provides.

I owned the Valhalla loudspeaker cable for over 12 years of time. When it came out it was for some years the reference in loudspeakercables. Based on speed and resolution.

But all tests with 100% Valhalla were all dissapointing. Because essential parts were missing for the absolute sound. These days there are more cables who surpass the quality easilly. Time and technique go on.

At the end all parts togheter of your set create the overwhole sound including your room.

We compared the Valhalla loudspeakercable wih the Cardas Golden reference in the past. Maybe it sounds warmer overwhole. I remember the faces of the people who owned the Golden Reference. The Valhalla had so much more details and separation. After this test they put there Golden Reference for sale.

Warmer sound with cables is possible, but you will loose in other parts.

I think you need to look for newer cables with newer techniques.

I no longer use this ic, but owned it for years, very special and more
importantly perfect for you. He will most likely let you try it.

So it looks to me as if you are seeking a warm interconnect to tame some of the brightness of the Nordost Valhalla speaker cables.

Yes, Jade cables are warm and sweet, and would definitely help. So would replacing the Nordost Valhalla with just about any other speaker cable.

Audioquest, Acoustic Zen, Harmonic Technology, Cardas, Kubala Sosna, Tara Labs, really, just about any other brand will sound less thin and etched than the Nordost Valhalla. The Valhalla will work fine in systems that are a bit too warm and slow, but you don't seem to need the Valhalla's.
