Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam ,

@ grey9hound, you did not offend me with the repost I posted on another thread,I am flattered,and feel you gave me alot of respect,thankyou very much,It is a true story that happened at progressive audio in 1997,before they sold the store to a new owner,back then they had a licensed room with thousands of dollars of sound room treatment and the system was avalon edilon speakers,mit cables,spectral equipment thru out,the very best of these brands,hell,after I did that test,I went down stairs and grabbed a Krell fpb 600 stereo amp and took off the mit cables and put taralabs the one cables on that system and it sounded way better than before,so good,we turned the volume up and blew the mid-range driver in one of the avalon speakers,I was horrified!the speakers at the time were $25,000.00 and I did not have the money to fix them!,avalon is located in colorado,I was there in columbus,ohio for a week,I drove from mobile,alabama,,the next day flipped me out!avalon flew in on a private plane and fixed the avalons in front of me!,at the store,they explained it was the only licensed room in the country at the time,and the store was not suppose to allow me to change out componets or cables!,the reason the store allowed me to do what I did was I had a great relationship with the dealer and the store,after that I bought a krell fpb 200 stereo amp!,and been useing krell amps ever since!,I now have the krell 700cx stereo amp that I love!,A toast to all,cheers!

Wow, What a cool story !!

@ Audiolabyrinth
I would be willing to sell body parts or organs for a Krell FPB700cx. That amp is at the top of my list should I win the lottery, or somehow come into some money.

LOL Grey9hound!! On another cable thread, Audiolabyrinth had me selling a kidney to buy some cables!! LOL!!

I may envy Audiolabryinth's cables, but he can keep his Krell, I'm more of a tube guy. If I'm selling body parts, I'm gonna get me a VAC Phi 300.1a. hahaha

Boy, I sure would love to own something like that(VAC Phi 300.1a) too. I have often wanted tubes just for Music .
The biggest reason that i haven't looked into a better two channel sytem is two fold . First of , I like full range speakers better than Monitors with a sub. 2nd ,I also can't give up my Home Theater for a 2 channel setup. So.. I tried to find a reasonable trade off.
I play all of my music, whether it be Cds or even Pandora from Directv,(Which really doesn't sound too bad) , in Souce Direct or Direct mode , without any processing. This way there is only ONE Digital to analog conversion.
If i use a sub for music then I would have to have the signal processed because of the Inherent delay that all subs have. Most processors nowadays can take care of this (Audyssey). But to me it usually sounds better without all of the additional processing to sync with the delay of the sub.
Also , if i use analog out from the Source then there is one Analog to Digital conversion , and then a Digital back to Analog.
I always have found that the less processing of the signal the better the sound .
I also think my Cd Players Dac (Sony CDP-M555ES) is better than the DAC in my processor Marantz SR5003) . I believe most Cd player dacs are usually better than Most Processor dacs . In my case I know it is . I have tried .
I hope this makes a liitle sense .
I know it is difficult to explain clearly and concisley .
