I tried several with my MP-1 MA-1 setup. Mogami 2534 worked just as well as any of them.
Best Cables for Atma-Sphere MA-1 MP-1 combination
Hi and thanks for looking into my post. I received a lot of enthusiastic responses for my other post ''Atma-Sphere MA-1 Mk.3.1 Vs. Atma-Sph. MA-2 Mk.3.1'' and would like to thank everyone who helped me there. My next question is this:
What is the best cable set (PC, IC, Speaker) tu use with a Atma-Sphere MA-1 Mk.3.1 and MP-1 Mk.3 (w phono)combination. From my research, I read Ralph does not think his customers should spend a lot of money on HiFi cables...Here is what was written on another forum:
''After trying a few experiments between the MP-1 preamp and the MA-2 amps we determined that there are differences between cables and they are significant. The good news is that the best sounding cable we have been able to find is regular quad-shielded mic cable. Cheap, cheap, cheap! In fact, anything that we have tried which would be considered an audiophile cable does more harm than good.
Save your cash and spend it elsewhere. I know Ralph says this and it's not that I don't believe him, I just wanted to have some fun and see if I could hear any difference. Yes I can - it just doesn't mean the sound is better.
There was a fellow on Audiogon a few years back who was using the same pre-amp and amp and he had some SUPER expensive, highly regarded cable and he did the same test and arrived at the same conclusion. Mic cable is the way to go. ''
I am wondering who this audiogon user is and would love to have his feedback on this...
