Ocellia Silver Reference Interconnects

Gareneau,

My bad. In my enthusiasm for the speaker wires I overlooked the section on the Belden and neglected to mention to take a look at them. That, and a strong cup of coffee makes me do strange things, indeed.

All the best,
Nonoise

Nonoise,
Testosterone + Caffeine + Audiophilia can be impulsive.
We understand :)

Hi Nonoise,
For clarification I haven't used or heard the Belden or the Western Electric
NOS cables. Various people on this site seem to be very impressed with
them however. I truly adore the Ocellia but there are so many cable brands
available that I'll never hear them all. I'm happy with my current sound.

Charles,
I totally understand. I'm just infected from the other cable thread. As for ICs, I'm in love with my Darwin Ascension ICs so I'm kind of with you when it comes to ICs: silver seems to be the best in my system as well.

But tinned, stranded copper has made me a believer when it comes to speaker cables.

All the best,
Nonoise

Jet,

I can strongly recommend the Ocellia Reference. I use a set between my phono preamp and linestage, and they are the best sounding cable I have tried in that spot. I haven't heard the Kondo but a few years ago I tried Audio Note AN-Vx as well as Sablon Panatela, Wireworld Platinum 6, and High Fidelity CT-1, and none of them impressed me the way the Ocellia does. That was before I bought the Ocellia so I did not compare it directly to the others.
