Request recommended cables for my system.

If anyone has a system similar to mine and has found moderately priced cables, (IC, speaker, PC), with good synergy I would appreciate your input. I like a lively sound with low tight bass and extended highs and natural mids. I listen to a lot of Blues, and occaisionally any thing from Metallica to Mozart.

I think I would rather concentrate on I.C.'s and speaker wire for now because because they may be my weak link?

My system:

Sony SCD-777ES > First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk 11

First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk 11 > Plinius/Spectron amps

Plinius SA100 > bass modules of Von Schweikert VR5

Spectron M11 > mid/treble modules of VSR VR5

Cables I use now are older and include; old AudioTruth Argent and Audioquest Cobalt speaker wire.

IC's are JPS Superconductor +, and Purist Elementa.

PC's are CPCC Top Gun Special to Sony 777, CPCC 20 Amp Model 11 + to Sound Appications, CPCC Model 11 to Plinius, Shunyata Viper to Spectron, Sidewinder Gold to First Sound Pre, also using a Sound Applications power conditioner.

Thanks for any input,
Peace

Purist Audio Venustas and Aqueous Anniversary. Try them and you'll be done.

I would exercise caution regarding the Revelation Audio Labs products. A friend and I have first hand experience with problematic refunds over multiple transactions.

It seems to me, if your going to talk negatively about a product you could at least be specific. You never said why you didn't like them in the first place...

I was trying to be more subtle, but since you pressed the issue...

I purchased cables and returned them within the 30 days. It took me over two months to receive a refund. I kept one pair of ICs, which I used for a couple of years before I replaced them with something I liked better.

My friend has purchased and returned two RAL products and he has returned both within thirty days. It took him over 90 days to receive a refund for the first item. The second refund is ongoing and is between 60-90 days. The first refund check bounced. The second has yet to be received.

My friend still owns a set of RAL speaker cables.

The products are quite good, but the return process can be a frustrating quagmire and needs to be improved.
