Some Cables Thoughts
Working on those cable suggestions you all have offered up to me in the past. I was wondering if any of you might know of a decent grade 110V power cord that has a 90-degree male connector on it? Something like this:

If not, a super flexible cable something similar the stock one that came with my Coda amp, that can turn downward asap and not to long of a connector itself, some are supe long. I need to get tight to the back wall.
As fair as speaker cables, I was thinking of a pair of these, 6 feet long with spade ends.

Do I have your blessings?
PS: No one speaks much here about XLO cables. There are these on USAM - 6ft for $600 DIY terminations, I’d just use bare wire (if I could figure it out (lol)

There is another set there as well with bananas for $800, but I prefer spade.
Thank you!
Everything is subjective! Lol @navyachts I have EERO mesh network and connect with Purist from the access point straight into the streamer just get one purist from switch to streamer. And between router and switch use linkup cable which is excellent. You’re gonna be all set. |
OK, I will order the balance of my cables tomorrow. Thanks for the clarification. I just noticed a lot more base with the new cables at this point. We’ll see how further changes influence that. It’s kinda like going from the renderer in the R26 DAC to the Aurender N200, did I hear a difference, yes, but a $4,000 difference...no. I still think I need to tweak my DAC. @yyzsantabarbara recommends the Schitt LIM and you and @ghrdprentice recommended the cord TT2. It’s easy to try the Schitt product because of their 15-day return policy, but with all the money I spent on cabling, I don’t think I’ll be able to swing for a new cord TT 2, so I’ll have to buy used, which will make it more difficult to deal with if it’s not too tasty! Then, would I also need their pricey Mscaler to boot? The only other DAC I would like to try is a W4S 10th anniversary DAC. I had one of the less expensive DACs with Martin Logans before and it sounded pretty darn good. Anyways, thank you for your continued help and support. |
@audphile1 You sure got that wrong. Audio is subjective, not everything. That is clear.
@navyachts not my intention nor am I worried. 😏
