Mix & Match Interconnects

John, I agree it took me one year before, I got the
right combination on my reference system,Its a lot
of work,its costly at times.Yes you can find a happy
marriage why not,there are some good women out there,
but you need to audition them like gear and cable,
to match your taste,like cars you test drive.

John, In my case I was bless to have a friend who are
into music, they have musical system as my reference,
So I know exactly what Iam looking for,two benefits
I got,Number one I invite them to listen to my system,
to give me some feedback,Number 2, I borrow their
cables.Sometimes I get bias with my system, thats
when I get in trouble.

Band-Aid..At no point did you hear the intrinsic sound of any single cable.Tom

John, the source cable I'm refering to should be suitable for all systems. I've tested this same cable in at least 2 dozen systems and received the same result. It is the best way to figure out if your system is lean or thick without scratching your head and trying different combo. It's a good reference point for your system. This will save you time. However, it is possible to have same cable throughout the system. There is nothing wrong by hitting that combination in one shot as long as your ears are pleased with the result. A friend of my insist that he prefer using same cable in his system even though the others prefer a different combo. As Jayctoy said, you're the one who's spending the money so your ears should be worth something.
