Analytical, revealing COPPER w/


What is a copper IC that is the fittest to my description: W/ Strength in “analyticality”, clarity, revelation, detail, last and most “edgy” separation?(between instruments or between frequencies)

I have so far bought two types of IC (my speakers are self powered so my long XLR ICs are my speaker cables) worth naming for my system.

Cardas golden reference
Audioquest Sky

To my general impression, assuming because I have Class D amps, solid pre amp, copper always sounded more full and acoustical in bass.

Sky is a good silver cable, it didn’t necessary bring out more details in the low frequencies with my pre/amp, I however agree that it is quicker at delivery. Like some other silver cables I had, worthless to name, they shared the characteristics of sounding somewhat hollow and a slightly unnatural in the lower frequencies.

I know if I had any good tubes in preamp or amp from, say, audio research, it would solve the problem regarding the bass being hollow and a bit unnatural.

But tubes sounds slow to me (I previously had Jadis). I am looking for “analyticality”, clarity, revelation, detail and “edgy” separation.

I have feel that I have to stick with copper because sky failed to satisfy, and Valhalla is know for having even less bass, I don’t have much faith in find a silver cable to pair with my amps. Please recommend me copper.

How about the Synergistic Research or XLO signature cables?Maybe PAD-Purist.
do not generalize too much about copper and silver. a good cable to consider is the sunny cable technology cable.
Audioquest comes to mind. Whatever their top of the line DBS copper cable is called---Jaguar I think. Tried those and myself and these should be what your looking for.
The XLO Signtaure is by far the BEST copper cable I have experienced in my system. However, I would not describe them as "edgy" or "analytical". I just recently upgraded from Audience Au24 to the Signature 2 Interconnects, Digital Cable, and the Speaker Wire. And is just newly broken in.

When compared to the Au24, the Sig 2 are definitely more resolving yet offer more clarity and focus. However, they have this seductive quality to them which is difficult to describe. I have been hearing things that I have never heard before in Albums I am very familiar with. One thing that is abolutely stunning about the Sig 2's is the Bass extension. I almost feel as if I added a tight subwoofer to my system at times. It is absolutely incredible.

The XLO Signature also images better in my system and the soundstage moved back atleast 10-15 feet when compared to the Au24. Anyway, my system is somewhat modest (It is in Virtual Systems) but I would say if you are looking for some of the BEST copper cables out there that let the music through. I would not hesitate to suggest the XLO Signature 2.

BTW: After reading your post. When I think of cables that will have "edgy clarity" and "fast analytical" charateristics, I think of Nordost Cables which personally, I do not enjoy and would not want. The are pretty cool at first but once you spend some time with them, you will probably want them out of your system.

However, if your system is just way too lush, they may just do the trick.

Good Luck!
