To loom or not to loom?

Kinda full loom…

I had all Acoustic Zen PCs and ICs. Krakatoa (preamp), Gargantua (DAC and amp), Absolute Copper Interconnects. The interconnects were the first ones in a system. 
Every time I added more AZ cables I got more of their “house” sound which is warm, inviting, lots of meat on the bone, big bass. But believe it or not, a set of Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper speaker cables that I borrowed from a friend were the straw that broke the camel’s back. It just tipped the scale so much into that warmth that the final result was the sound that was actually too dark. I didn’t like it.

Amp was Pass XA30.8. Speakers were Martin Logan Montis. 
 

@audio_is_subjective64 take it for what it’s worth but the bottom line is this is all components/room/synergy/preference dependent. 

@steakster Yes my milage did vary. Best power cables I have in my system are the 2 C-Marc EP in my digital front end with the LessLoss Firewire 640x on my DAC (LessLoss) and my Innuos Zenith MKIII. Using DH Labs USB and Zavfino Silver Dart Graphene Audio Interconnect (XLR) from dac to pre and pre to mono blocks. I do not have any LessLoss Interconnects. 

As I have both Digital and Analog front ends there is DH Labs and MELCO ethernet cables feeding the signal through the TeraDak T-S212, DH Labs USB feeding from Innuos to LessLoss DAC with Wyred4Sound USB ISO. Clear detailed not analytical or sterile sounding at all.  Analog is all DH Labs BL-1 phono cable and Silver Pulse cryo-treated, unshielded hybrid cable from the phono pre to my pre amp. 

I have 2 SR PC in my system but they may be the cables on the block for replacement, powering my mono blocks. 

@audphile1 Yes I get that. Thank you so much for your input.  I also feel that the IC's are  key in the middle of the cable chain. PC/IC/Speaker and that one doesn't need to spend tons to get a great sound in this chain. Synergy is key not cash. 

take it for what it’s worth but the bottom line is this is all components/room/synergy/preference dependent. 

A. wiring loom, is ’an assembly of electrical cables or wires which transmit signals or electrical power."

What kind of brainiac combines power cords, speaker cables and interconnects?

@fuzztone So thanks for the post. No most of the trade publications, sites and cable manufacturers are using this as a description for continuity and having one brand of cabling. for example from PTA and TMR. I know you are being literal and trying to be clever. Guess that backfired. Gibberish.

Complete Cable Loom Recommendations
[Editor’s Note: We’re pushing forward the idea of a cable “loom”–an entire complement of one brand of high-end audio cables, enough to wire an audio system–as the easiest way to determine differences between cables. These are the cable looms we have used in our systems and recommend to our readers.]
