EMC-1UP SE interconnect?

Thanks to all of you who responded. I can always count on help from the membership.

I use Cardas Golden Reference and a Cardas balance adapter for the CD end. My preamp is single-ended only.

All works well for me.

Interesting comments about the spider clamp. I have heard mixed things about that.

Johnmcalpin, I'm interested in what you heard regarding the sider clamp. I know from direct experience that it brought the performance of my girlfriend's player to a higher level, without any downside that I could hear. So, is this concern something that someone else shared with you or did you audition the clamp yourself in your system. I'll thank you in advance.

Tvad, would you be nice enough to share the following information concerning the Empirical Audio mod of your EMC1-UP SE: 1) What parts do they replace in the process.2)What is the cost for the mod.3)What sonic improvements/differences between the stock vs the mod did you experience. I'll thank you in advance.
