What most important in the sound of your cables?


The most important thing in the sound of my cables are speed and clarity without being bright. I like a natural sound as well with a little bit of fullness. This thread is about telling others what you like and what cables give that to you.

Interesting reading :-).
I'm tired of spending money on cables of all types.
I'll take some time off and just read what you all have to say.
Jmcgrogan2 knows what I'm talking about. I'll bet several of you others are there too?
I haven't spent much money on cables and I love its performance.
I use Mogami silver interconnects that are not top of their own line either. My preference is to silver plated connectors oppose to gold-plated simply for better conductivity. I also purchased a left-over bulk piece of Kimber 8TC 10' run. Spliced them half/half and use no termination at all at neither end.
More natural sound is achieved with copper cables while pure silver cables tend to sound harsh.
The priciest cable I have is part of Technoarm.
Cable burnout....I'm with you Lak!!! Just like women, many cables can sound glorious at first, but after living with them for a while, I always seem to find their flaws.....and then their flaws seem to magnify themselves in my mind and I wind up moving on. After a while you realize that they are all just different. Nothing is really better, just different. They all have their strengths and weakness'.
Thankyou calvinj, I did not know that veloce was u.s.!, right on man,where in the world did you get turned on to veloce at, or who turned you on to it?
@jmcgrogan2 I totally understand the cable burnout. I understand audio burnout. I think this is going to be my final stop. The high fidelity ultimate reference on the veloce right now is about it for me. It is the sound I want. I will eventually go back acquire all this stuff at a later date. I been listening for hours on Friday Saturday and Sundays. That's a sign that I am really happy. I heard good high priced stuff and bad high priced stuff. The high fidelity ultimate reference is great. The veloce combination amp and pre is amongst the best I have heard period. The combination of the two has caused me to have some the best listening sessions I have ever heard. I guess we all chase the ghost. I think I may have caught that ghost this time. Lol.
