Help me buy some new cables....

Aaron, you can find Grover at www.groverhuffman.com (If I'm wrong just google Gtover Huffman and tthat will ring you to find him)

Howdy, sorry for the slow response. I lost track of this thread; my bad.

I took at look at the Grover Huffman site. Very nice stuff but it seems like it is out of my current price range, unless I missed something. Admittedly I didn't comb thru it, but he has some very neat sounding cables. But the stuff listed under interconnects is too much for now. Maybe in a year or ao I'll look into getting a pair. I've got it bookmarked!

Also, I have considered but not yet done anything about power cables. A year ago I bought a Citation 7.0 that came with a real badass PS Audio power cable. I couldn't believe the guy sent it along. It probably cost almost as much as the Citation! Anyway, that is the only upgraded power cord I've got. Despite having it almost a year, I am just now putting my system back together after a whole house renovation, so I actually haven't A/Bed it against the cables my amps came with (they looks to be slightly upgraded basic power cords).

So the whole power cable thing is very new to me. I am considering it but I figured that I'd start with interconnects first for one simple reason: when I went to set up the system a couple weeks ago I realized that I would need more interconnects than I had on hand or resort to using those included RCA wonders that everyone has. That might work in a pinch, but I don't want to run my thousands of dollars worth of equipment on $.25 wires. Even if one does t believe wires make a difference it seems like a small investment to at least try some different stuff. So here I am. And yes, I do think wires make a difference, albeit a modest one compared to some other components.

Since we are on the subject of power cables: I've found some on eBay (yea, that site again). They are around $50, my magic number, but I am pretty sure they are Chinese products, but I'm not sure that's a big deal here is it? I know there is some concern with things like Chinese tube amps failing.

This is interesting.... I had read that Vampire cable wasn't going to be making their CCC cables and when I checked their site before they weren't available. Now they are. Weird. Owell....

For anyone interested, Vampire Wire CCC is apparently available. I have no idea for how long. Maybe they found someone's stash. :)

Hey guys, another question. Any decently priced solid core cables out there? So,drying in my $50 price range preferably? If not it MUST be under $100. I simply won't spend more than that right now.

Thanks folks, Aaron

Damn I hate my iPad. "something" not "so,drying". I write, it says what I want, or nearly so, and as I type it changes the friggin text. I gotta turn off that so-called feature....

Sorry, rant over.
