I would have to side with Montytx. I'm using 6ft. biwired Tara The One ISM Onboards with matching IC's in an all MBL Reference setup. The sound is neutral to slightly warm, but incredibly deep and detailed with excellent stage placement. Obviously the MBL omni's are perfect for just what I described, but with that front end you have going my guess is that you would see much of the same.
Speakers cables that are warm yet detailed........
Need your help Audiogon members as I am in the market for a 3m bi-wired pair of good speaker cables that are warm to a degree yet present a great sounstage and are very detailed without being bright ...Holy Grail Cables you say !!!! I currenlty have Purist Audio Venustas...but would like to upgrade from them and which by the way are great cables. Current system is Avalon Eclipse, Rowland amp and pre-amp, dcs Delius and Purcell with a CEC TL-1 transport. Shunyata Anaconda's pc's and Synergistic Absolute Ref's ic's. Price ....around $3,500 to $4,000. Your thoughts....

Here we go again...another wire thread that'll eventually have 75 different suggestions from everyone who posts what they use with no regard made to the original poster's associated gear. My suggestion is to buy a few used pairs of cabling from the l...o...n...g list to follow, and then listen for yourself. Otherwise, cut to the chase by contacting The Cable Company for some recommendations, and then using their Cable Lending Library to narrow your choices. No matter what you eventually choose, you will have to listen to a few different cables to decide which are right for you. |
Tvad..thank you for your response, I was hoping that instead of listeining to a ton of cables that someone could shed some experience on certain cables that may work and you may want to note that some individuals already have. FYI, with the Cable Company you have to put down a deposit, and that is usually 10% of the cost of the cables your renting, and you can only listen to the ''ones they have in the library'' and usually are not the ones I want and then the deposit is then held by them for store credit only. It could be an expensive propositon. By the way, I appreciate your comments but I do not see where you offered any suggestions on any cables which is actually your criticizism of the thread itself and the people who are answering it. So, you could be either the problem or the solution to this thread. Give me some ideas !!!! Thanks.... |
Cardas cables are generally regarded as warm but have the right amount of details. Their Golden Cross Series are warmer than their Golden Reference series. Check out their FAQ site for more sonic description & application of their cables. http://www.cardas.com/content.php?area=faqs&content_id=3&pagestring=Cable+Use I using their Golden Reference ICs & Golden Cross speaker cables & they synergies very well in my set-up ie: detail, analog sounding (warm) & with an articulate LF. |
