Tell me about your Jena Labs Symphonys

My suspicion is that the Audience powerChords are to blame for a softening of transients in the system, but when I compare the Jena to several other ICs I find they are a lot less immediate than say the Luminous Synchestra Refs, but certainly not rolled off like Cardas Golden Ref or even Stealth PGS.

Power chords are a real pain to try out here in NZ with reterminating in our pathetic plugs being almost impossible with 10 guage or larger conductors. Plus some US cords are only rated at 300V which is decidedly dangerous to use on our 230V supply.

I will hold back on trying Jena SCs until I have got my PCs sorted I think.

OK I take it all back. I have managed to improve the system in other ways - mainly by changing the power chords and improving the digital transport source. I am now able to better audition the Jenas against Quattro Fil and a few other lesser interconnects. The Jenas come out on top now and no problems with being laid back. Very glad I kept them and now want to find some Jena speaker cables.

Redkiwi: It's been said in the past that Jena S/C works well with other brands but the Jena I/C's work best with Jena S/C. I have the Symphony Ic's and the Valkyre S/C. Since the S/C carries an amplified signal I went bigger on those and am happy with that combo.

I am going to look out for some Jena speaker cables now, but not many seem to come up. Any length from 4 to 9 feet will work for me...
