0.5m Interconnect for around $120
Hey guys, I wanted to expand on my choices of RCA cables that I will be acquiring in a near future. I did read reviews on many cables on this site, but not everybody posts reviews on every equipments we have, so I was wondering......
I will be using new cables for my Phono Pre to my receiver.
I'm currently using Monster 400 mkII, and the reason for change is that it's 2m long, grips the hell of out my equipments, and too my ears cables sounds muddy( not warm by any means) compared to my friend's $25 Radio Shack cables. But RS cables were very sensitive to electronic devices.
My current choices are
AQ
- Diamondback $95
- King Cobra $125
Kimber Kable
- Hero $125
- Timbre $85
Cardas
-Micro Twin $100
My gears are:
- Pro-ject Xpression
- Pro-ject Tube Box
- Rotel RSX 972
- B&W 805 Signature
Does anybody know other good alternitives to the list above?
The other thing that comes to my attention is that my TT's audio cables do not detach. So, I was thinking no matter how good of cables I get, it is going to sound as good as my permanently installed cables on my TT. But to my ears, each cable has different sound. Any thoughts?
Is it just a revenue generator?
I'm not giving a strong consideration on the Cardas cable I've listed above.
My reason is that, Cardas Audio offers very premium products. I'm only stating this on the price, since I have not used their products or know anybody who has.
The Micro Twin is their most affordable productline, correct? Consumers are often persuaded by the glamour of owning prestigious brands. I'm wondering if this product is their way to generate more revenue by targeting consumers with lower budget. But, at the same time, I don't think they would want to compromise their brand reputation. With this in mind, would I get a quality product that I need with $10,000 Rolls Royce?
I'm not bashing this product since I have no experience with it. Is there anybody on this forum who has?
Anything helps, thanks.
