Thanks Zavato. As a result of Technik’s comments, I started furutech reading which lead me into the "right" DIY. At this point I’m looking at, dependent on the component, a mix of power chords: furutech DIY, DHL DIY, and Pangea ready made. mixing it up based on my best educated guess, will enable me the opportunity to move cables around components to see where they perform best, as well.
Ive read up on Supra for about 2 yrs, and will be using their speaker wire for my rear and mid channels (I actually bought a piece 4 months ago to test, was very pleased, but have yet to follow thru with a full order) Im also getting ready to start comparing Supra power conditioner / surge protector to others, but initially theirs seems hard to beat anywhere near their price range. Reason I’m shying away from Supra power chords is that while they have a truly superior patented tinned copper process for low voltage applications, they are pretty new to the silver plating game, and their silver plating is pretty standard ... DHL seems to do that better for less.
For connectors I’m looking at Sonarquest, which is a direct furutech competitor out of Japan, but whose U.S. prices are notably lower, as they don’t have the furutech level marketing machine, and came to US market late...they seem to be going up in price, following on furutech coat tails, but are very well reviewed by pros amd individuals who have direct compared.
I will now add Cullen to my reading before I pull any triggers. Thank you again for your help on this, Zavato!
