Slow Down, You Move too Fast


Hello Again,

It's been a while and nice to be creeping back in to the game!

My system has sat pretty still for a while and some recent changes have made it a bit lean and quick. The most recent culprit are MG Audio planus III speaker wire. Amazing detail and extension. And fast. A bit too fast for my system: I initially loved them, and still really appreciate their attributes, but these old dog's ears got tired.

So, I am looking to slow things down into a more of a comfy zone.
I am thinking of new speaker cable and perhaps a set of interconnects and could use some insights...

The speaker cables that look good to me are:
-Tara Labs, the One or Two +/-EX
-Purist Audio Venusta
-Kubala Sosna Emotion

The Interconnects are the same-ish. I try one instead of one of my Gabriel Gold Infusions:
-Tara Labs, the One or Two +/-EX
-Purist Audio Venusta
-Jade Audio Hybrid Gold

Is that too much for one thread?

Looking forward to batting it about.

Enjoy the tunes!

And, thanks.

Bud, yes plinius amps are great match with Dynaudio. I had SA 201, but SB301 is better. I regret not buying SA Ref when I had a chance, but Hiato sounds fine. I always come back to plinius.
You should consider upgrade, especially now Plinius has new US presence and customer service is great. I can recommend you a great dealer As for cables Gabriel reflection speaker and Ics cables sounded worse in my system. No balance, lack of bass and hifi ish. The MG has been better but a little bright and I did not like their look and lack of flexibility. I assure you that Snake river signatures have great bass - outstanding, try them you will not regret. I had Hybrid Mlt and dream petite, they are Ok cables but overpriced even with good discount and their bass is not on the level of Snake river. Their latest dreamV10 speaker cables are great so ,but again pricey. I had many cables to demo in my system and has been skeptical about Snake River until gave them a chance. They will not shock you from the first try, but somehow they draw you into music and eventually you realize that you love them.
Hi Budburma, You have to excuse Devon at Taralabs, he is from new-york, I get along with him fine, I know how to deal with him, when you get to know him, he is a great guy, They got that poor man running crazy with sales world-wide, from single sales to huge mass sales to dealers or distributors, to traveling here and there, Devon is correct about the two, that cable is forgiving, what I posted would be of benefit for your system, you could use the two where you need forgiving, reread my post, other than my recomendation, my post said to mix the other cables, that's where you could use the two at, cheers.
Denon1 is right on the money! I recommend that you go with the Snake River Audio Cottmouth Signature speaker cables Art, you will love them. Also, try some Jade and KCI interconnects, and some Dynamic Designs power cords while you are at it. That should slow the sound down to a pace that pleases you. ;^)

One more thing, send that Plinius SA-201 amp out to Vince for some modifications, that will really get your head spinning!!

Cheers,
John
HA! Ok, I've done just that....And smelling the roses with a nice cup of Joe in hand might be the thing to do. The shopping list is long, the time short and the tunes need their due.

SRA speaker cables....done. And loving them!
Dynamic Designs Heritage line on all digital components...done. (BIG bingo)
KCI and Jade....done. Big boy Jade Platinum (PlatinYUM!) on the way.
Plinius upgrade in the wings.

Hmmm...jupiter caps for the Romulus?!
Audio Horizons PlatinYUM fuses all around?!!
DD Nebula power cords!!!!
Power conditioners and cords!!!! NOW my head is spinning.

Back to the flowers and java.
