Cables, Interconnects and More Cables???


I am trying to upgrade my system cables on a limited budget and I'm curious where the best overall values are into todays market. I have an Ah! Tjoeb CD Player into a Rotel RA-971 preamp into a Rotel RB-981 power amp driving B&W 603's and a B&W ASW 2000 sub. I have been using older Audioquest cables and its time to upgrade. Whats the word?

I agree with Rockvirgo! Anybody tried A-B compairing the cheap RS cables with your "favorite" multy $$ cable? I bet you would be surprised. And i bet you wouldn't know the difference.
I thought everybody compared cheap cables with expensive cables...I bet if you stood out in the rain long enough, you'd see why it's better to go indoors...
Interesting Carl. But once inside you would have to decide which would get you drier, Egyptian hand woven cotton or Seacrest.
I do in fact keep a $40 pair of Straightwire Chorus cables to help evaluate new cables, and isolate differences that occur compared to higher priced models. I can EASILY hear the difference between say HT Truthlink $250 and Chorus $40, MUCH more detail and 3D resolution. Of course there comes a point where more cost buys little improvement, and thus becomes a relative waste of money, but if you use generic Radio Shack cable you are leaving a lot of sound on the table.......regards Sam
I'm no towel expert, so I guess I'd let my ears decide. Whichever one makes the least noise would suffice. I guess that would rule out a burlap bag...
