Starting a new system...


I just found a great deal on some items, and I plan to build a new system around them. What I've got so far are two 1 meter pairs of single-ended Siltech Compass Lake interconnects, a 2 meter pair of Nordost Valhalla speaker cables with spades at both ends and three 2 meter Electraglde Fatboy power cords. Any recommendations on what source components, amplification components, power conditioning equipment and speakers would go well with what I already have? Thanks alot everyone:)

I own siltech Ls 120 g3,and from what Iam reading
on the nordost valhalla,they are both a
little bit bright .My speaker recommendation,
B&W, any dark sounding speaker,Ill go with tube
player.It seems to me money is not a problem.
Halcro amp and preamp.You might be able to get
away with the Amati, and the Parsifal,or Andra
eggleston.
Sorry, no experience here in regard to building a system from the ground up with the listed cables - however I may be able to suggest perhaps a better starting point (different cables to "sprout from") with a tad more info.

You might also consider basing the new system on "neutral" cables. In this case just check out what gear the local chain restaurants are using (certain that the seater-greeter will more than happy to supply this info).
Th: Thanks for the laugh : )

Having said that, I would follow the advice of what Eagle had to say. He is surely "sharp as an Eagle" and his recommendations are right on the money : ) Sean

TH,
It's too bad you already bought the I/Cs, P/Cs and S/Cs. It would have been good if you had taken the contact enhancer your going to use and your favorite RCA plugs and spade connectors to put on the ends of the cables you were considering.

It would have also been useful to contract the power company that feeds AC into your home and to have had them run dedicated lines that mimic your AC into the audio shop you were auditioning at. Then, within a 2 to 3 square mile area, ask all the business's to cease operations that require any AC usage for about 4 hours while you audition stuff.

A little more time and effort but……….Oh well. :o)

Hope I said something,
Robert.
