IC's from pre-pro to amp


Sugestions for cheap ic's to connect my processor to multi-ch pwr amp...looking for something neutral. Using monoprice now...don't hate me...I already feel bad enough about it. Thanks.

Blindjim,

Not really. I posted a while back on Auvio wires to see if others had used them in more critical applications, but that thread died and I did not get the feedback I wanted. I just really like their sound, very musical and coherent. Would be interested to see how they compare in very high resolution systems versus wires costing many multiples. Hesitant to call them "giant killers" at this point.

I actually also have some Radio Shack "Fusion" wires that they were marketing a few years ago and love these as well. They look almost identical to the "Auvio" brand now for sale (same connectors anyway), but the Fusion cables have a ferrite plug at one end. Usually a no-no for signal wire, but I find it has little negative effect in my system. Somebody on another forum was trying to tell me that the Fusion cables are far superior to the new Auvios, but I haven't noticed the difference personally.

Good luck, please report your experience on here.
I have used and still have a few sets of Gold Series from the Shack...sound fine to me. Been plugged and unplugged a many times and have held up fine. Removing the screw on barrel reveals a good looking contact/construction and the cable itself is pretty beefy so I suppose shielded pretty well...never had hum issues of any sort. They cost a whopping 10 bucks a set/6ft...!
Try the new version from RS. I liked the Gold series too, but somehow lost my old set.
I ended up going to my "supply box" and getting all my Shack gold series mono cables. Had a boatload from the days when I had my Nak cass deck in the loop. At least this way I know all cables are the same between procc and multich amp as well as the 7.1 analog outs of br. Sounds as good as it did perhaps a bit more spacial. I swear sometimes the rig is processing prologic llx or another dsp...but it's playing direct 2ch stereo...it's that convincing. I guess that's a good thing.
