Acoustic Zen Silver Reference II ic users....


Hello and Happy Holidays!
Purchased these a few days ago here on Agon and I like what I'm hearing.
What speaker cable are you guys and gals using that have these ic's?
I'm presently using Alpha Core Veracity MI2's that I like but -as usual-seeing if I can move it up a notch.
I listen to rock and jazz.
Speakers are VSA vr 4 jr's so biwiring is mandatory.
Thanks!

Hi Greh,
I am using for my speakers a 10ft. run of Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun( Biwired) and they are much more detailed than my previous Acoustic Zen Hologram II.The Bass is tighter and more subtle than with the Hologram II. There is more transparency and neutrality with these cables.Music sounds very natural and you sense and hear every instrument with the clarity and tonality that I am yet to find in other speaker cables. In fact my whole Audio/Video system uses only Acoustic Zen Cables. Trust me I have tried and compared many speaker cables to my Acoustic Zen Cables and I always end up sending the other cables back.
I know every cable has the tendency of sounding different from one system to another and people have different taste in sound reproduction so I know not eveyone will agree with me but in my 9+ years of listening to so many cables I have always found the Acoustic Zen cables to have all the attributes most audiophiles look for in Interconnects and Speaker cables.

Also here is the link on my review at www.audioreview.com under NY1PR2002 of the Acoustic Zen Silver Reference II,

Zen SIlver are great cables......I would not hesitate to recommend AZ HologramII or Satori Shotgun(if you have 3-way speakers with bi-wire capabilities).
I also have a pair of Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun Bi-wire speaker cables. They are very impressive! I LOVE them. They are conneted between my Audio Research Vsi55 Tube Integrated and a pair of Proac Response 3.5 floor standing speakers. The Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun cables offer tight, punchy well-focused bass with very clean, natural detail and a 3-d/holographic soundstage. They are very natural and possess wonderful PRAT. They offer the sweet liquid midrange that tubes are known for without sounding slow or bloated. I love their detail and musicality. I am also running AZ Silver Ref II (RCA) Interconnects. But I am switching to a BAT VK300x Integrated, so I will be switching to AZ Silver Ref II Balanced IC's. Woohoo! Gary
I have used AZ Silver reference series 1 for 4 years, then added a single wire run of Hologram series 1. I don't plan on changing, way better than the Nordost I used before. I took advice on the Gon about mixing with Matrix cable, but find all Silver reference much better. I really believe that the one area where sticking to a single company pays dividends is in cables. I liked them so much I have added the Adagio speakers, which are as good as the reviews say and then some.
