I have Synergistic Research throughout the system. However, these cables are between 10-13 years old, in those days they were between $200-$500 depending on length, so somewhat affordable then. I started with One and it made a huge difference so I gradually changed them one at a time so I could determine if it made an improvement. in every single case it did. However I do realize that if I were to do the same today it would be cost prohibitive. I don't think it answered your question! but maybe it did! It always helps if you have a dealer who could lend you the cables or have them exchanged if you don't hear a significant improvement. Best of luck and enjoy the music!
Does a weave of cables really make a difference?
I have a mix of good quality cables -- speaker, AC, XLRs, USB, but they are a mix of brands. I would say they are all in the same quality/price range - $200-800.
Has anyone switched from a mix of brands to a weave of cables (my understanding of a weave is all one brand at the same quality/price level) and found it to be a big improvement? I would like to hear from people who have actually done this.
I am quite happy with my current sound, but would make the change if others have found there to be an audible difference. One of the audio dealers here claims it will make a huge difference.
I will add that I could easily hear an improvement with speaker and some slight improvement with the XLR's, but not so much with the AC cords. Also, I'd rather not just try weave out (as much as that makes sense}, as changing all the cords would be a real pain.
Thanks in advance.
