What components sound best with Reynaud Trentes?

Jrwr7

I can hardly tell these are box speakers, sometimes I THINK I can tell it is a serapate tweeter and sometimes I THINK I can hear the woofer going a little slower but the bottom line is the Trentes involve you in the music to a great extent, more than my old Maggie 1.6s.

I have to admit I am a bit skepical about Stan's wire, I have also read in Bound for Sound where Martin DeWolff makes a speaker wire from 6AWG 19 conductor wire from Lowes. He says it is a good as anything he has ever heard. I do plan on buying some and trying it out (if I can find it) as the cost would be about $50 or less. Frankly I am not expecting to like it better than the JMR wire and will use it in a second system. Time will tell. I have read so many posts with people asking how to get in contact with Stan Warren I am tempted not to contact him at all.

I hope you really like your Trentes as I do too. I am very happy with the HP216A wire and it's lack of character or bringing any attention to itself. Details come across in a very natural way. The bass is just amazing in my system and to think it is coming from those little speakers makes it harder to believe.

If anyone wants the info as to the exact wire from Bound for Sound I will dig it up and post it.

Hey Phil,

Yes, it is very difficult to contact Stan but it has certainly been worth the effort to me. I can tell you from word of mouth from a gentleman in the business that handles the JMR cables regularly, they do not compare to the Stan Warren cables. My friend sells the JMR cables but uses Stan's cables for his demo systems which include the Trentes on Magic stands........John

In what way are they better than the JMR wire? This stuff is so good my imagination is streched to think of a way to better them.

I do not mean to sound negative and appreciate any info

thank you for your help,

Phil

Hey Phil,

Stan's cables extend the range of the speakers noticeably and lower the noise floor considerably. They also provide the most musical bass I've heard VS the cables I mentioned earlier. The high end is very sweet, not tizzy or bright, with the most delicate decay. I've never heard the JMR cables, I'm just going on what my friend told me. As I mentioned, he sells JMR cables but uses the Stan Warren cables on both of his demo systems........John
