Interconect recommendation

I have a Marantz PM 84D integrated amplifier, a Denon 1650AR CD player, VAndersteen 2Ce speakers, Audioquest midnight+ speaker cables, and Kimber PBJ interconnects. I am looking to upgtrade the interconnects.

Would HT Truthlink or AQ Opal be good choices ? And what is the difference between balanced cables Vs. unbalanced ?

Thanks.

Chander and Sean,

I am kind of curious about the results of the burn-in experiment. If it comes off could you post your results?

Thanks,
Greg

GPalmer, I surely will. Perhaps Sean can also do tests before and after and report. But first, I am curious as to what Sean means by "burning". I have used the PBJ's for a few years now. Wouldn't it already been burned in ?

For your system, try out some Straightwire Virtuoso Platinum interconnects.
Well designed balanced connections should give you a quieter background, only if you use balanced connections in your entire setup and that you are running long lengths of interconnects ( 15 feet or longer ). Otherwise, any difference is subtle.
