Does creating a loom in cables in a system make a significant difference?

Thanks Guys for your input.  I agree with what Charles 1 Dad said.  My ears tell me that I'm doing fine. It was an  expensive route to get where I am in my present system. My instinct tells me that any increase in SQ by building a loom system with one manufacturer (Nordost, Synergistic Research or many of the other respected brands) would not be noticeable to me.  I'll just follow a route that makes economic sense to me (but I won't go cheap) without religiously adhering to one brand.

A cable loom is a device that bundles them together in a relatively neat raceway.

The idea of your system sounding great with a full loom or a complete mishmash says absolutely nothing to answer the question. Unless you have compared the opposite… there is no information gleaned.

In my fifty years of pursuing the high end, owning dozens of components, and hundreds of interconnects… with slow and methodical convergence on synergy of components and same interconnects and cables is however evidence… although somewhat indirect.

I do have a theory for which I have a lot of personal evidence. But would be hard to prove (like everything in high end audio):

If you consider a sequence of four components Streamer -> Amp or TT -> amp)… each with a different small shortcoming.

To make it simple, let’s say component one rolls off the highs, component two rolls off the low frequency, component three rolls of the highs and component four rolls off the lows. By the time you hear the output has a highly attenuated high and low frequency. This is a pretty strong case for all the same components.

Then apply the same logic with all cables and interconnects. Suddenly the same components and same carefully chosen interconnects become a much more synergistic collection of gear.

The real world is much more complicated… but this really suggests the same everything will provide the best sound.

Of course if a different company produces a much better single component you have to weigh the variables. But if a company produces outstanding components across the spectrum, then they have a real competitive edge. 

I have always been a subscriber to continuity in cables will bring better sound.

My main system is all Zafino Cable and could not be more pleased with the sound and and performance. My secondary system is all Signal cable and I am equally satisfied with the cables and the components assembled to make this system.

I am still constructing the loom for my main system, I started with interconnects and speaker cable, now ordering power and should have the loom complete in the next few weeks.
