Interconnects & XLR cables for Bryston Amp/Preamp

Nikturner920, to my ears, the Truthlinks have made a significant difference. The combo of Truthlink interconnect between CD and pre, and XLR between BP25 and 4B ST has resulted in a detailed, yet slightly warmer sound toward the high mids. It's subtle, but noticeable.

I don't like silver with my bryston either, like Tvad I had too much detail. Ruined the fun of half my cd collection! With the cables I've played with though, silver seems the way to go for hyper detail. I would make sure you can enjoy your poorly recorded favorite disks though before I would go for more detail.

Tvad, hope you got the system going in the right direction then. The turthlinks worked great from my cd to Pre. Now I'm stuck since I have a vinyl rig that tends a bit warm and don't want to over do it in that direction with the pre to amp connection. Tone controls would be a bit simpler :-(

I am going to let my ZU cables burn in and try the Truthlinks in about a month. Thanks.

I used Bryston's own balanced cable (Belden) when my set up was BP25 to 7BST monoblocks. Sounded good and neutral. Also used Tara Labs Air 2 balanced between Meridian 508.24 CD player and BP25 and this was much improved over the Synergistic Research Alpha Sterling single ended cable used previously. Air 2 is a bargain, at least for that combination.

With my BP25/7BSST setup I use all Bryston XLR interconects. It is the least expensive item in my system and I do not feel it is a weak link. The sound is not harsh or bright. I spend about 20-30 hours a week listening to tunes without any problems. My only problem is turning the system off at night.
