Hey Mike, with regard to cables I would really urge you to test first. Most retailers in the UK will allow you to test the Cable first (or offer you a guaranteed refund if not happy) and in the US I believe there is a cable lending company. And importantly: how a cable sounds in your system is not correlated to its price. You’ll probably find some cheaper or mid price cables sounding better than expensive ones.
My recommendation would be to get everything up and running with the basic cables (including your 1970s speaker cable). Then take one bit at a time and experiment with different cables.
Personally I’d start with speaker cables, as you only need one set of cables it is the easiest to work with. So, order up 3 or 4 types and compare. It’s actually really interesting and I find it great fun to do this.
Then power cables. I’d experiment with the component they attach to: keep the standard power cables on everything except one component and test each component in turn. Don’t listen to reviews or other forum views as mains cables are so dependent on your system and your electrical supply. I find some cables make zero difference, others a massive difference. If I take my cables to a friends hifi he gets different results. Then when you find the components that appear to benefit from better mains cabling order up a few types and repeat the experiment.
Finally interconnects. As you have an integrated amp it is a bit simpler, but once again order a few types to compare and don’t believe the hype that you have to use the same interconnect between each pair of components. That is nonsense. You may find your record deck very sensitive to the type of interconnect whereas your CD player may be fine with 10$ cable. Doing the research on my system (integrated Vitus amp and CD player) I found cables by Transparent, costing $1400, sounded no different to $20 cable from an electrical store, yet a $800 Townshend interconnect sounded sublime.
By the way I think your Luxor is a great match to Magico. I have a Vitus amp but before buying it I demoed a bunch of amps: the Luxor sounded fantastic. There is a real organic warmth to that Japanese Luxor sound, almost Tube-like. They sound more musical, less hifi. Just a note: the Luxor I tried sounded a lot better when it was warmed up so you might want to leave it switched on. I also demoed a bunch of speakers, Magico included. I didn’t actually like the Vitus/Magico combo as for my ears it was a bit too detailed and clinical, but I reckon attached to the mellower Luxor the Magicos will be a dream. It’s all personal taste but for my ears on some modern American amps Magicos can sound dry and clinical, but with the Luxor to tame them I think they will be outstanding.
