The only suggestion I will make, is purchase cables from the used market. There are so many really great values out there.
Worth upgrading my cables?
I’ve made a ton of updates to my system over the last six months and now I’m wondering if my cables need some attention. Here are my questions:
- Based on my system, and current caballing (description bellow), do you think I would recognize a noticeable improvement by updating my cables?
- If yes, which cables would you prioritize (speaker, interconnects, power)?
- Lastly do you have any specific recommendations.
Current system:
- Technics SL-1200G (Hana SL) --> Manley Chinook --> Manley Jumbo Shrimp --> Finale Audio Classic 300B monoblocks --> Klipsch Heresy IV
- All interconnects are Morrow Audio MA1
- Speaker cable Canare 4S11 Star Quad Bi Wire
- Power cables Tripp Lite Heavy Duty , 15A, 14AWG
Thanks for your thoughts!

@rocray With all the fake cables out there (just just over to the Fake Chinese Cable thread with it's 13 pages of comments) I would be very leary of buying on the used market thse days. Just saying..... |
@bigtwin : Ali Express only counterfeits a small portion of audiophile cables. Audioquest, Nordost, Gryphon, Shunyata, Cardas, and a few others. Before you buy, use the key words just to be safe. Ask for verification of Authorized US dealer, from seller, and you will be fine. |
There’s something to be said for enjoying your system as it is while upgrading over time. You can burn through a lot of cash and drive yourself nuts trying to do too much too quickly. Enjoy the journey, the destination will arrive before you know it. Good luck! +1 @rhg3 |
