2. cables

Using 2 different brands of interconnects?

Is there any problem with this if the cables are in the same ballpark in quality (or price)? Do cables have such different sound signatures that things get muddied or cancelled out?

Forgive my ignorance. This is my first venture into the topic. I'm talking about under $100 gear for a meter length..

dweller: I won't have an opportunity to trust my ears until new cables show up, so I'm trying to minimize having to fiddle around by getting it right in the first place.

jond: Is this common knowledge--a consensus pt of view?

$100 is relatively inexpensive for interconnects. The correct answer is, “it depends” the better your components, the bigger the difference you are likely to hear. But if your components are under a couple thousand each, it is unlikely to be noticable.

To be clear, do you mean I might or might not notice the difference between cheap and  expensive cables, or I might not notice the difference between matched cables from two different companies?
