A number of manufacturers offer a 30-day trial period or more, so seek them out and give them a try. The Cable Company will charge you around 10% of the cable cost to try their cables, but will credit the amount if you end up purchasing from them. Also, they tend to push the Synergistic Research line.
Experiences With Costly Balanced XLR Interconnects Above $3,000
I’ve had great success going with quality (and costly) mains power cables in the main system. In my experience power cords bring the most significant difference in comparison to interconnects and speaker cables. However, I have not really tried the best interconnects out there.
I currently have the Wireworld Silver Eclipse 8 XLR and an Acrolink 8N-A2080III Evo XLR in the system. Both sound excellent although different in their presentation. I’m wondering if the top-of-the-line WW Platinum Eclipse 8 XLR or Acrolink Mexcel DA6300IV XLR will bring a noticeable or worthwhile improvement to the sound.
Any experiences would be appreciated.

I used audio questions lapis power to pre for a number of years. After I went to transparent reference there was a slight hardness that disappeared that I never really knew about til it was gone. I like the newer generations better in there line reference xl is as high up as I have gone. I own the first three generations of reference speaker wire there is a small step up in each generation. |
