Cable septic


Okay, I’ve spent a fair amount on my dream system. Voxativ 9.87 system, very efficient speakers, Vocation 211 integrated, ps audio Directstream DAC and power station, etc. I’m using pretty basic cables, mostly what came with my equipment.  I still remember a magazine article where they AB tested high end cables neatly separated vs a mess of cheap crap.   The result, nobody heard a difference. So, flash forward, what cables will make a difference?  Brand and which component in order of benefit. Thank you!

@mmporsche - sorry to be a bit late to the party here, but to answer your original post question - which cables will make a difference - any cable from KLE Innovations will improve sound.

I have used/reviewed several models, from entry level to top of the line and compared them to a couple of the popular brands and the KLEI products came out ahead each time.

The only problem - they are not a well known brand and therefore has little in the way of resale value. But if they are the last cables you buy then it's not an issue

If it's a DIY solution you are considering take a look at

I use these throughout my system and they provide the best performance across the board, with an exceptionally large image and sweet spot.

I normally recommend starting with speaker cables, followed by IC's and last of all power cables.

Hope that helps

When I see factory tour videos on the web, their equipment looks more inline with a poorly setup electronics hobbyist not any company doing serious R&D. Don't blame me I didn't make the videos.



  I have always been intrigued by Synergistic Research. They seem to place an emphasis on research but they are pricey.  
 
I was a late entry to cable improvements. I started around 20 years ago.
Children, mortgage, life had got in the way before that.

Have since found the value in interconnects, speaker cables, power cords. Even digital cables.

With such a large market in North America, used cables are a pretty safe bet. And pretty good value for money as well.
I am currently reviewing another speaker with a full range driver, which like the Voxativ, and as would be expected, reveals both tone and definition changes due to cables.  



No one hears a difference between wires. In fact what they do is imagine a difference between wires.
