New Preamp...New Cables???

Bought a Hovland Preamp 100 used here on Audiogon.  Pairing it with Parasound Halo A23 Power Amp. Using Synergistic Research Alpha RCAs for past 7 or so years.

Opinions from you folks on if it's worth it to "upgrade" interconnects going to Power Amp and Digital source to Hovland Pre.

Nothing crazy, maybe 2 pair for 200 per tops... Have to draw the line somewhere I guess.  

Thank You

$200.00 tops stay with what you got as for that money can't get an upgrade.

If you can find some good used AQ Jaguars or Columbia, it will definitely be an upgrade. I've owned both the AQ's and your SR, so my comments are based on listeing experiance.

^^^^what he said - save your money.  If you get a hankering for something more or different then spend some time with the Cable Company.  in the meantime, enjoy the tunes.

No need for new ICs. Enjoy your new pre. That Hovland is sweet.

Cheers,
