Greg...I'm extatic that you have posted...you and I are working with similar digs...MF A5 integrated and cd player through Spendor S8e's. I am using Nordost Red Dawn interconnects and thinking about their speaker wire...currently using older generation Audioquest Turquise wire for the speakers. I'll check back to see where you end up...do tell. My Spendor dealer strictly sells Analysis Plus because he feels it works best with the Spendors...I'm a beliver that the wire has more to do with your components then your speakers, but I've been wrong before. Other wires I've tried and liked have included Straightwire Encore II that are a less analytical as well as Cardas Golden Reference (expensive). Best of luck, and do tell where you end up.
Speaker cable help
Hello All,
I'm looking for some speaker cables in the $200-400 (used) range. If I had to put a finger on it I'd say my system was on the "bright" or "forward" end of things.
Musical Fidelity A308cr amp, Musical Fidelity A5 CDP, Belles 21A Pre, Spendor 9 speakers, Analysis Plus Crystal Oval interconnects. The British stuff tends to be pretty natural but the Belles really digs deep into the recordings and brings everything "up front".
Would a set of speakers cables that are more "distant" "reserved" or "coloring" help with the synergy? (With the idea of "softening" things up a bit? And if so, what are your recommendations?
Mmmmm, MFSL Chicago Transit Authority's one and only LP is groovin' in the next room. (Yea, you know they then became "Chicago" ..... what ever happened to them? After about their 4th LP the really took a dive, IMHO)
Thoughts & suggestions, oh great audiophiles!
Thanks, Greg
