Hi Audiolabyrinth,

Wow! $5,000 for interconnects, I couldn't fathom spending that on interconnects. I'm using using balanced cables now and noticing a big improvement. Using Furutech Power Cables, they are the best affordable cables I've used.

If you can pick up a CD-S8, at a good price, as I did, you will be even more stunned.
If one can afford to put $5K interconnects, power cords, etc...on a device that is worth half that amount (BTW I love the Vincent CD-s7; it's one hell of a piece), it may be time to consider the value of the player that is being connected. Personally I've seen big advances to just such things but you hit a point of diminishing returns where spending 1/2 on the cables and more on the component itself will yield more dividends...
The TARA Cobalt is a power cord, the Interconnects are Tara zero gold running directly to a highly modified krell 700cx amplifier, speaker cable's are Taralabs omega gold, jumper cable's for Bi-Wireing Tara special order omega 10", which is on a modified pair of jbl L7 speaker's that do 30htz to 27khz.
Sounds like one hell of a setup....a friend of mine has modified JBLs with his ribbon and interconnect technology inserted in place of the OEM innards and the results are amazing!
