Slow Down, You Move too Fast


Hello Again,

It's been a while and nice to be creeping back in to the game!

My system has sat pretty still for a while and some recent changes have made it a bit lean and quick. The most recent culprit are MG Audio planus III speaker wire. Amazing detail and extension. And fast. A bit too fast for my system: I initially loved them, and still really appreciate their attributes, but these old dog's ears got tired.

So, I am looking to slow things down into a more of a comfy zone.
I am thinking of new speaker cable and perhaps a set of interconnects and could use some insights...

The speaker cables that look good to me are:
-Tara Labs, the One or Two +/-EX
-Purist Audio Venusta
-Kubala Sosna Emotion

The Interconnects are the same-ish. I try one instead of one of my Gabriel Gold Infusions:
-Tara Labs, the One or Two +/-EX
-Purist Audio Venusta
-Jade Audio Hybrid Gold

Is that too much for one thread?

Looking forward to batting it about.

Enjoy the tunes!

And, thanks.

Hi Bud, Very nice system and set-up, I believe you would benefit more from the Tara the one speaker cables, you need a speaker cable that will resolve the resolution out of the plinus amp, that is resolving, allow the cable to pass that information thru, I would use the two on digital, and the one I/c on pre-amp to amp, then mix whatever cables you want, bottom line, Iwould use the One on the pre to amp, and use the one for speaker cables, use other brands if you like on everything else, you will get a good dose of the Tara the one useing what I offered here, remember, it gets alot better going up the cable food chain, Taralabs is getting ready to release some new cables very soon, a few are affordable, a couple of models is just crazy exspensive!, They are still going to carry the one and two, Here is a bit of info, you can go to the Tara site, scroll down to you see a link that says, controlled band width and extended band width, its in the technology section, this is part of what they are actually carrying, their site is goofed, so this is the way to read on these cables, I say use the extended band width the one, then controlled band width on anything else you may want, I am saying, Taralabs is currently making two versions of most of their cables now!, when you read all that, get back to me here.
hey there audio labyrinth. I am deep into a long stretch of hours at the hospital and will try to find time to respond. BMI power cord has been a staple of mind for some time. I have not heard anything that sounds better on my system
Hi bud, I also have plinius amp (Hiato) and the speaker cables I settled with are Snake River Audio signatures Cottonmouth. I liked them the most, after trying MG audio III, Kubala Sosna emotions, Hidiamonds8, gabriel gold reflectinos, purist audio venustas and corvus latest versions, and some others. Based on what you are looking for, I think the Snake River may be a good fit and good senergy with plinius. The kibala sosna emotions and purist venustas may be a little warm and laid back with your plinius. For Ics try latest version of KCI silkworm +. terrific ICs for the money and great manufacturer to deal with.
