I found the Stealth M-21 Special is the best source cable and it will fit in with any preamp. Second choice is home made which is better sounding than my 3 choice Audio Note AN-Vz. Forth choice is NBS signature but a bit too tight to my preference. Fifth choice is AZ Silver Reference. Lower frequency response is too loose and the high is not as extended as all the above.
To me, source cable needs to be as accurate as possible.
However, your preamp to amp cable is very important too. I use NBS King Serpent or my home brew as 2nd choice and AZ silver reference as 3rd choice and Synergistic Designer Reference as 4th choice.
To me, preamp to amp cable needs to be open with wider bandwith than the source cable.
My friend prefer NBS to NBS but it sound a bit "Solid State" harshness to my ears. Very Clean though.
