I am re-assembling my rig after some renovations. I have two pairs of IC's for placement decision: the HF CT-1E's and JPS Aluminata. One pair from DAC to Wyetech Opal pre, one pair frompre to Krell FPB 300cx power amp.
Peviously, had HF's from DAC to pre; JPS from pre to power amp, and sounded grand. Should I swap them? Yes, I know I can listen, but I am asking for your thoughts. Swapping cable placement is such a huge hassle in confined space.
Since they have both been out of your system for some time you may also find that the entire system will sound different than you remember. IMO, you will need to give everything a good several weeks to get yourself re-acquainted. Then make cable changes once your ears have adjusted to the new set-up.
Either cable is likely to sound better in one position vs another, only you can decide which sounds best to you!
