I'm a bit late to the party, but this weekend I just compared 4 interconnects. By far the interconnect that had best dynamics and bass slam was CRL-FIM interconnect. The bass had great articulation and realism. As someone else mentioned OCC copper is the way to go for what you are looking for.
Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam ,
I recently purchased some Cardas Golden cross sepaker cables. They replaced my Dh Lab Q10s. I replaced the Q10s because i was getting some upper mid freq brightness.
I have Golden Cross interconnects from preamp to amp and from cd player to pre amp. The sound is very smooth and detailed .The bass and mid bass is not as authorative or as tight. The highs are better - more detailed and smooth.
The problem is the sound is almost too smooth the bass is kind of rounded off now .The sound is less dynamic.
My Question is.
Is there an interconnect that could give me back that great bass and dynamics of that i had with the Q10s, without the harshness i was getting. I think i would like to keep the Golden Cross speaker cables and try changing the ICs. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Now they have settled om the name CRL, right ? here is a link that might help http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/cable-research-lab-silver-speaker-cable-and-interconnect/ |
@Tbg, I must have misunderstood your response. Are you saying that audio system should be above family in life's priorities? That putting my family ahead of my audio system was an over the top reaction? You have to read the exchanges between myself and Audiolab and put them in their proper context. Audiolab keeps saying he is going to make a couple more tweaks to his system, and then ride off into the sunset, happily ever after at 46 years of age. I am simply telling him that is not so easy to do, and in fact I would probably not have throttled back on my insane spending on audio gear had it not been for a couple of life's hurdles. When you are running blindly, throwing away tens of thousands of dollars at a time at audio gear, money that many of us cannot afford to spend, you have to sit back and question your sanity. Yes, some of this is fun, when your spending is under control. However, there are many OCD folks in this hobby too, that spend waaaaaay more than they should. At one point my system's value was about half the price of my home. And no, I didn't have secondary homes, boats, planes or big money tied up in other interests either. For many, this hobby does become a pissing contest. It's wonderful that you still have the enthusiasm and resources to play with this hobby at your age. I highly doubt that you are struggling to make ends meet though. |
