I have a few Audio Sensibility cables and thought they were really impressive given the fairly low cost. They better other similar or even more expensive cables in my system.
Reasonable high end interconnects: without breaking the bank
I am in the process of updating my audio equipment and have realized my interconnects are probably not up to snuff; I use the ones provided by the manufacturers. My current set up includes a Leben cs600 amplifier, California audio lab Icon Mark II CD player, Linn Akurate Streamer, Feikert Volare Table and Spendor SP1 speakers ( in final stages of upgrade to either Audio Note E, Devore O93 or Joseph Profile). I have been investigating interconnects and have a bit of sticker shock. So any suggestions on interconnects that won't bankrupt me? Is silver truly preferable to copper with respect to resolution and detail?
Thanks

Wow you are still using California audio lab Icon Mark II CD player. I had used that one from 1989 to 1998. Teo Audio GC II has very natural sound with nice decay at 600$ https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis92173-teo-audio-gcii-1m-new-model-upgraded-interconnects Silnote Morpheus Ref Series II is also good with overall refined sound and excellent details at 400$. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9dga6-silnote-audio-morpheus-reference-ii-series-ii-rca-ultra-silver-24k-gold-top-reviews-wor-interconnects Choice of Cable is dependent on system and personal taste. Many cable companies offer return period. Thus I recommend you to try them out audition in your system. |
I usually don't play around with ICs at all. I use a basic cheap brand that someone gave to me. That being said a buddy of mine did a lot of listening last year to ICs in the $500 or less price range, he usually buys used and in his system the Harmonic Tech (one model up form the TRUTHLINK BASIC) was very nice sounding for what it is worth. Happy Listening. |
