Looking for really fine cables at really low price

Jet, Yeah me too! I did shield mine and thus far I love them. We will see what the future holds. I also used Switchcraft connectors. These little things do make a difference. I know connectors sound different and do impact the overall sound of a cable. I would rather just do away with all the RCA connectors/jacks and solder the IC directly to both components. Well we know that is not practical.

Maxima95 makes a great point. No connectors are best and they way I experience the WE wire. Not everyone can use bare wire however.

Well, that's what makes the world go round. I'm going to pop open a nice bottle of wine and listen to my rich and musical rig. Now that I have my tinned copper star I'm going to Marshall my posse for some down-home good music, my brother has arrived with his soldering iron and mutual audiophile friends for a good old-fashioned Sunday shoot-out. We will start to brand tomorrow some Arizona Green Cactus. Today we will all have a resolute good time with tone, warmth, PRAt, texture, emotion, real musicality at any volume I like. I might get up, dance around and "kick out the jams." Today feels like a Rock n' Roll day. Best, Rob

Hi Jet,
You mention the resolution up your SET amplifier and this is what I mean. I was lead to believe that resolution would be sacrifice if I decided to go this route, although I would be rewarded with a "warm and colorful "sound.
. I find this type of impression condescending in hindsight, yes there is plenty of natural warmth, tonal color and vividness but also true resolution without any hype or exaggeration. Given the current make up of my audio system I now joyfully experience the highest level of nuance, transparency and resolution I have ever had. I'm very happy with this result. All of this satisfaction from a "mere" 8 watt amplifier.

Rob,
I can literally feel your joy, have much fun today with your brother and friends listening to music.

I'm with Charles -Yes Rob enjoy. Sounds like a blast!

Grannyring, I ordered four Belden 3502AAU gold/nickel RCA plugs last night. Agreed wish we could do away with all connectors.

Agree with Salectric - will be patient and enjoy the journey!
