One more to add to the list: Cardas Neutral Reference. My other two favorite copper cables are AU24 and Luminous Synchestra Signatures, already mentioned. All of these sound very similar to each other in the mid-band. The Cardas is a little warmer in the midbass than the other two. The Luminous has the best soundstage. Depending on the rest of your system, the AU24 and Luminous may sound slightly rolled off in the extreme highs, but in a lot of SS systems this can be a good thing.
Best copper interconnect cables
I am looking for a pair of copper wire interconnects for my new reference preamp...but the choices that are given to me make me wonder what is the difference.
I have seen outfits that offer continuous strand copper wires, OFC copper wire and other things with wide range of prices from extremely affordable such as the Vampwires to the ridiculous. What is the true story of copper and its qualities?
My preamp is a First Sound Paramount Hotrod MKII
my amp is a DNA 225
The most I would consider spending is $300 for the interconnects with RCA plugs (1-2 meter run pairs)
