thin, very flexible, warm sounding interconnect...


...that is not too fragile and won't break the bank (say less than $600 for a 1 M XLR pair).

Any thoughts? I am exploring a number of solid silver braided/unshielded interconnects. But I'm wondering if these all won't sound a bit on the lean side of things.

Your thoughts (as always) most appreciated.

hi philojet:

i have access to audionote products. is there another audionote cable warmer than the vx ? is the vx a silver cable or copper cable ?

i have reviewed a preamp, heard an audionote dac, and own an audionote cd player.
Okay, a very helpful set of new suggestions. I like the idea of copper audionotes. A friend recommended the Lexus. Any thoughts on where to get some?

Thanks all.

I found the AN-V, AN-VX and AN-VZ to have similar tonal balance which seems neutral but allows musical fullness to come thru

these are all silver cables, but I lent the AN-V to a friend and he had them about a month and during that time presumed they were copper

also FWIW I prefer Gabriel Gold Revelation cables but they are not as flexable as the AN stuff
hi philojet:

i think warm means colored, i.e., subtraction in the treble and additive in the upper bass. i doubt a cable that sounds neutral can also be warm.

i think a cable like purist audio design proteus or colossus would probably qualify ass warm. however, they are not inexpensive and not thin.

i doubt there are any warm cables which are in current production today, except, perhaps, the soundstring.
