Cables, Interconnects and More Cables???

MIT Terminator 2.

I agree with Carl. AudioAdvisor is practically giving away MIT cables. Check on their demo selection as well. Nordost is another choice but you will have to spend more. Good luck.

Here are my best performance/cost ratio cables in you price range, of course used is best if possible.....(as always don't buy on strangers advice, use Cable Co to try at home first) IC copper:Harmonic Tech Truthlink, new $250, used $125 IC silver:Silver Audio Hyacinth, new $250, used-not likely instead watch for used HT ProSilway II for $250-275 or used Silver Audio Silver Bullet 4 $125 If you are using Opal or Emerald now, these are nice step up....if you are using Ruby or below these will be revalation! (BTW I have used Opals) If you have AQ Forest or higher speaker cables now, upgrade ICs first......if not upgrade speaker cables also Regards.....Sam

Radio Shack has a very nice pure copper 14 AWG braided flat pair speaker wire. $20 for 50 feet. Unless you're pumping wads of current, you might want to try it. And if you like, replace it once a year and never look back. I'm guessing more than half the 'revelation' inherent in cable switches is replacing old for new. The Shack also has substantial gold plated spades at about $5 per eight pack.

An excellent best-buy choice in interconnects is JPS Superconductor. I am familiar with the discontinued model, not the Superconductor +. Superconductor should be available here on Audiogon for $125-$150. This is a cable not bettered by many much more expensive cables. It is dynamic, with very crisp, clean uppper mids and highs, decent bottom end weight if not the absolutely most extended in the bass. In my opinion, the frequency balance is slightly tipped to favor the high end, but the upper mids and highs are presented so cleanly, the overall sound is quite seductive without being overly colored. This cable is way ahead of Audioquest Emerald, for example.
