Advice for RCA Interconnect Upgrade?

Hey Guys,

Kinda new here and first time asking for advice.  Thinking about upgrading RCA interconnects between DAC and Int. amp..

Currently using CHORD Clearway 1M.  This is my system:

REGA  Aethos integrated amp. (no XLR )

Jay's Audio CD Transport

Denafrip's Pontus II DAC

SVS Ultra Towers (highly modified)

Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables

Using an app on my iphone, the response has peak db from 4k to 5k.  I would prefer to tame that a bit.

Of course I have power chord and AC line upgrades and such but I hope this is a good starting point for your help.

Thanks,  Lawrence From MI

I ordered the Triode RCA set today.  If not happy I'll just send them back.

I know the cable is not the first step to improve sound in my case but I'm making this a Xmas present for myself!😉

I haven't got the TWL RCAs, but really like his Freedom ethernet cables.

The RCAs being copper, and said to have a 'natural' sound is promising for you.

What are you using between your digital source(s) and your DAC now?

 

While I usually compare pairs of rca interconnects, recently rediscovered notable differences and varying results with different digital cables too. Tried a former well known mainstream digital cable I had stored and was surprised how bad it was.
