Your advice on a good cable

I found Nordost interconnect cables worked well with my CD6. I used Blue Heaven and later Red Dawn. The Red Dawn did amazing things with the CD6.

Cables are so damn system dependent I have a hard time recommending cables to anyone. That said, in my system the Acoustic Zen cables/interconnects have really added life to the music. They seem to reach down and grab the subtle harmonic structure of instruments and present them in an incredibly balanced, coherent, and natural way. If you try them you may want to experiment with the interconnects--I use the Silver Reference between my DAC and preamp and the copper Matrix Reference for my preamp to amp connection. I find this best preserves all the detail from the front end but still captures the full tonal complement of the music. The Satori speaker cables are really something special and an incredible bargain at under $700 for an 8ft. pair. Best of luck.

It really doesn't matter what other people think of your purchases as long as you feel they are provided good sound and value. As Soix says above, cabling is very system dependent. Hook-up with a good local dealer or someone like the Cable Co. who will let you at home demo a number of different products. Some will probably work better than others and its possible that you might come across a specific line that works magic on your system. I recommend that whatever you pick, stay with the same manufacturer for both interconnects and speaker cables. There are some synergistic advantages.

Somewhat off topic, have you considered upgrading your CD player? The rest of your system could easily support a better front end than the Cambridge.
