Over the years in trying for better TV sound, Iv'e had good luck with using MIT T2 interconnects. They seem to do the best job of straightening-out lousy consumer audio sources. Should be easy to find cheap these days used. Also for best TV sound is the same as "real HiFi", need the best power to the TV etc. Some sort of filter on TV helps, I'm using $25 Trip Lite on TV power inlet. This is not best choice for stero components but helps TV alot. Best cheap speaker cable for me was Audioquest CV4 to tame TV harshness. I have since moved on to PureNote speaker wire. GoodLuck and let us know how it all works out. Mike.
Harsh cable audio solution?
I have my TV stereo output routed through my 2 channel tubed preamp and Sonographe amp. The sound on most cable stations (regular analog basic cable) is terribly harsh, hashy, sibilant and distorted in the treble. Seems to be somewhat channel dependent - the audio quality of each channel seems to be hit or miss, levels and mix and distortion seems to be all over the place. Ie, most of the disortion seems beyond my control if its at the station engineering level. But maybe there is something that is system dependent on my end?
Anyone experience this problem or know of a solution? Maybe sheilding/filtering at the cable level? Have a low end Monster power sheild/strip - haven't used for the cable routing as of yet.
Are their "high end" sheilded coax jumpers? (need about 4-5 feet).
