MIT and tubes

No_money, Transparent is okay. If you really have "no money" though, I think you'll find better value in Goertz, XLO or Wireworld though. Satisfaction with cables and interconnects are system dependent, so try in your system before buying. Goertz has a money back home trial program and the Cable Company loans cables for audition (they often don't have what you want though). Most dealers will loan cables. Try to get a significant discount if you can. Cables are notoriously overpriced.

You aint kiddin, I allready have Transparent "super" and they basically offer a trade up program so you don't lose that initial investment once it is made so if I do go any further I will probrably stick with them.It might be overkill to go with before upgradeing my c.d. (cal ikom=nmkII). Just want to pick wisely, I don't want to be changeing stuff out every other month, just want to upgrade as few times as possible and be done with it. Of course I will enjoy what I have in the meantime, and know its limitations.

Audiogon, it's time to ban Phill.

Carl, not to nit-pick but after some more research of both sites, I notice that Transparent has links for awards and studios that use Transparent ref. No such luck for MIT.

I distinctly remember hearing a dealer mention to another customer that MIT makes a version of their speaker cables specifically for tube amp applications. May be worth looking into.
