i like these on my pass amps... the silver helps with a touch more air and treble definition, which alleviates the slight darkness of the pass class a sound
Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8
What balanced interconnects are you using with your X260.8 or X350.8?
Looking to potentially move on from my Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper XLRs. While they worked wonderfully with lower power amps I had with their plump bass, including the XA30.8, I find them (suspicion at this point) to be too much of a good thing with the X260.8.
What ICs would have the same natural tone but have better clarity and faster bass?
Gear (in my profile as well):
Bricasti M3, Wilson Sabrina, Pass XP22 preamp, X260.8 amps, Audience AU24SX speaker cables. Amps plugged into outlet on a 20A dedicated circuit.
Thanks in advance!

@moto_man I’ll add the Shunyata to the list. Although I wasn’t in love with their Alpha V2 power cord. May be the interconnects are better. |
@ghdprentice how would you describe the sound signature of the Transparent Ultra? |
@audiophile1, I am surprised that you did not like the Alpha v2 power cord. In my system, they made an audible difference, depending on what was replaced. For example, on the Pass, going from an Audience Power Chord to the Alpha was a minor improvement, I thought, although an improvement. However, going from the stock power cable on my ARC REF 6 was a startling improvement. How do you like the Pass XP22? That or something similar is on my list if I ever decide to go back to ss from my ARC REF 6 . . . |
