I'm running low on change, so please give me your $.02 donations :-). Here is the gear; Acurus ACD11 transport, Aragon D2A2, Aurum pre amp, and 8008BB power amp. Martin Logan ReQuest speakers. The cable chain is a 1 meter Coaxial MIT Digital Reference Component Interconnect from the transport to the DAC, 1 meter MI-330 Series 2 Component Interconnect (low impedance) from the DAC to the Aurum, 1 meter MI-330 Proline Balanced Interconnect from the pre amp to the 8008BB, and 10 ft. MITerminator 2 Bi-Wire from the amp to the speakers. The Digital coax and the Balanced interconnect I bought used, so I'm own'em. The MI-330 Series 2 Component Interconnect I bought new since I could not find a used one that was low impedance. I have seen several T2 for sale used, but bought them new because I was informed by MIT that the new ones are actually last years 750 shotguns (which they do look like). Now, I just hooked all this up and wanted your point of view as to if this cable chain appears adequate, balanced, and what I should be listening for as I use the cables for the next couple of weeks. It is possible for me to exchange the new cables for Kimber or Audioquest withinn the first month. This is a first time post to this group. I read the rules, and hope this does not prompt any prohibited discussions. Your thoughtful consideration is greatly appreciated.

IMHO stay away from Kimber Kable, too bright. I use Silver Audio interconnects and they are smooth and not bright sounding at all. |

Check out the G3 Siltech if you like silver cables. Smooth sounding stuff Maynard! And they have cables for most budgets. |
